The National Shipbuilding Research Program 1985 Ship Production Symposium Volume 2 Paper No. 22: Expanded Planning Yard Concept and Configuration Accounting or Improving Navy Ship Engineering
2006
Karn, A. R. | Runnerstrom, E.
For several years the Navy has been methodically improving its organization and procedures for ship engineering. These improvements have resulted in an expanded role for the planning yard. The planning yard's two primary functions are ship alteration engineering and configuration identification. Responsibilities have been clearly defined and more discipline has been incorporated into the process for both of these functions. These improvements are in the early stages of implementation and detailed procedures will continue to evolve. Requirements for ship acquisition programs have been refined to reflect these improvements. We have learned that there is a need for clearly assigned responsibility in engineering, that configuration identification must be an integral part of engineering, and that logistics support must be an integral part of engineering.
