Austal<\/a>, Australia\u2019s premier defense and fast ferry shipbuilder serving the global market, is undergoing a real digital transformation thanks to a renewed focus on innovation, application of digital-first processes, and implementation of SSI\u2019s shipbuilding information management platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In partnership with SSI<\/a>, Austal<\/a> is currently implementing ShipbuildingPLM <\/a>to control and release configuration managed 3D product models and production deliverables for the numerous vessels in their shipbuilding programs. This includes close coordination with design and engineering and seamless integration with production and the supply chain through their chosen ERP platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAustal is committed to becoming the premier naval shipbuilder in the Indo-Pacific region.\u201d said Andrew Malcolm, Austal\u2019s Chief Digital Officer. \u201cWe measure this not only in terms of capacity of our shipyards located around the region, but in terms of quality, performance, and reliability. Our work with SSI is about building the capability to be more effective, agile, and innovative.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Australian shipbuilder is one of very few shipbuilders taking an agile, holistic approach to their digital transformation. The key is a focus on solving shipbuilding-specific business challenges, identifying long-term objectives first, and implementing technologies incrementally to support those goals. As part of that process, the need to quickly achieve a return on investment, work within the realities of shipbuilding, and maintain a high level of security were all identified as key requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAustal is a true leader in digital shipbuilding.\u201d said Darren Larkins, co-CEO at SSI. \u201cThey are well on their way to becoming a digital shipbuilder from design and engineering through to production. We\u2019re excited to continue our close work with them on this journey.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of an agile approach, the project’s initial focus will give Austal more control over engineering information as it flows through to production and as changes are made. The open approach to integration taken by the selected platforms ensures that stakeholders from across multiple shipyards and design team offices have streamlined access to the models, drawings, and bill of material information they require.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Austal has been an SSI client since 2004<\/a>. These latest developments represent the next step in the partnership between the two organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
