This document contains course notes of the short course on implementing advanced technology as a part of the National Shipbuilding Research Program. Over the past two decades US. shipbuilders have amassed a great amount of DATA on the Best Shipbuilding Practices throughout the world through direct technology transfer and the sponsorship of the National ShipbuildingResearch Program. Many US. shipbuilders have used this knowledge to improve parts of the overall shipbuilding process. Not withstanding these positive yet intermittent achievements much must still be done to integrate all the knowledge into a superior set ofshipbuilding strategies to move U.S shipbuilders into a truly global shipbuilding competitive position. Developing the strategies is obviously just the beginning. Committing to their implementation is essential for success in the marketplace. The paper stresses the development and implementation of comprehensive strategies for the U.S. shipbuilders by exploring the Global concepts of integrated product development, accuracy control, stable processes, variety reduction, throughput improvement and, to make it all happen, re-engneering.

The objective of this project is to present a video short course on basic ship production to the shipyard skilled trades. As such, it assumes a certain knowledge of the skills needed to produce a ship, but does not get deeply into the theory of ship production. It is not directed towards planning and production engineer:, or management. The video is intended to give the various trade workers an idea of what modem shipbuilding is and how their skills are applied. It could also serve as a reference for outside vendors in applying their products in shipbuilding. An Instructor's Guide is included as a reference for a knowledgeable person presenting the video to a group of trade workers or trainees.
