Call
Detailed Call Description
Proposals should develop advanced innovative computational tools for shipbuilding that increase the European sectors competitiveness by addressing all of the following points:
- Facilitate rapid early stage design to support lower risk bid development particularly when integrating innovative new technologies.
- Provide better capital cost estimations and performance predictions, particularly showing the improvements expected from the inclusion of new technologies.
- Tools to be integrated with ship construction and production, as well as considering supply chain management and future maintenance and repair of vessels.
- Address and quantify the competitiveness gains provided by the tool(s) in the context of the wider European shipbuilding sector.
- Ensure that the tool is robust and resilient against cyber threats.
- Identify and address the necessary skills development needed to achieve the maximum benefit from innovative advanced computational shipbuilding tools.
- Develop a business case to quantify the added value from the developed tool to the shipbuilder concerned and within the context of the wider European shipbuilding sector.
