Trusted by industry-leading shipyards around the world
Why shipyards choose SSI for digital shipbuilding
SSI software is made for shipbuilding, by shipbuilding experts, giving teams the precision, traceability, and flexibility they need from first design to decades in service.
Shipbuilding-specific tools and workflows
Every tool and workflow is designed for shipbuilding, supporting classification rules, production realities, and lifecycle.
Fast onboarding, get value in 8 weeks
Get up and running quickly with a proven onboarding approach that helps teams start seeing value in as little as eight weeks.
Open architecture, countless integrations
Integrate with the systems you already use. SSI’s open platform connects with all production tools, including CAD, ERP, and PLM.
See how SSI solutions support your job role
SSI supports various job roles across the shipyard. From engineers to procurement and production, SSI solutions support shipbuilding and sustainment with connected tools and reliable data across the vessel lifecycle.
Engineers and Designers
Design with shipbuilding-specific tools that support complex vessels, multiple disciplines, and production-ready engineering. Manage changes, configurations, and design information without relying on disconnected drawings and manual handoffs. Catch issues earlier and give downstream teams accurate information they can build from.

Planners and Schedulers
Turn engineering information into practical plans for how work will be sequenced and executed. Use model-based information, work packages, and connected BOM data to coordinate planning with ERP and MES processes. Improve visibility, reduce manual preparation, and respond faster when designs or schedules change.

IT
Support digital shipbuilding without adding another isolated system to your technology stack. SSI uses open architecture, APIs, and integration to connect CAD, PLM, ERP, MES, and other shipyard systems while supporting multi-site environments. Maintain greater control over information, infrastructure, security, and future technology choices.
Learn more
Production and Operations
Give the yard accurate, production-ready information that helps people keep work moving. Connect engineering, planning, production activities, and automated machinery so teams can work from current information and communicate changes back upstream. Reduce avoidable rework, bottlenecks, downtime, and dependence on manual processes.
Learn more
Supply Chain and Procurement
Give procurement teams earlier visibility into what needs to be sourced, when it is needed, and how changes affect demand. Connect engineering and BOM information with ERP and MRP processes to support long-lead purchasing, material planning, and supplier coordination. Reduce surprises, excess inventory, and delays caused by outdated requirements.
Learn more
Project Management (PMO)
See how engineering, planning, procurement, and production decisions affect the wider program. Connect project information, changes, deliverables, and execution status so teams can identify risks before they become schedule or cost problems. Improve traceability, reporting, and coordination across complex shipbuilding programs.
Learn more
Owners and Sustainment
Keep reliable vessel information available throughout operation, maintenance, repair, and refit. Preserve connected design, equipment, configuration, and lifecycle data instead of rebuilding knowledge from scattered documents. Make future maintenance and modification decisions with a clearer understanding of the vessel as delivered and as maintained.

Purpose-built software for every stage of shipbuilding
From initial design and assembly through repair and refit, your teams need tools that keep critical shipbuilding information connected, regardless of where it comes from or how it is delivered. SSI combines empowered engineering with synchronized shipbuilding to support every project.
Design and engineering for production
Purpose-built 3D ship design, engineering, and production software used by 600+ shipyards and design offices around the world.
Connect information across the lifecycle
The only purpose-built PLM platform designed specifically for shipbuilding, connecting design, production, and lifecycle data.
