PipeCloud extends that data into pipe prefabrication workflows, including planning, CNC preparation, nesting, work orders, production tracking and workshop execution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Together, the integration creates a connected workflow that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Aligns design intent with shop-floor output<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reduces manual manipulation of data before fabrication<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enables more production-ready information for pipe shops<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Improves traceability across the spool manufacturing lifecycle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cShipbuilders have made significant progress digitizing design and engineering, but critical workflows like pipe fabrication are still too often disconnected,\u201d said Denis Morais, CEO of SSI. \u201cOur partnership with PipeCloud extends the digital twin into the workshop, creating a more complete digital thread from design intent through production. This gives shipyards the ability to reduce manual effort, improve accuracy, and ultimately build with greater confidence and control.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Purpose-built for shipbuilding environments<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike general-purpose manufacturing tools, the SSI and PipeCloud solution is designed specifically for naval and commercial shipyards. It addresses the complexity of piping systems and the need for tight coordination between engineering and production teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By connecting upstream shipbuilding data with downstream execution, the partnership strengthens SSI\u2019s open platform approach and extends its value into critical manufacturing workflows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Driving measurable improvements in pipe production<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Improved data flow into the workshop allows pipe teams to spend less time preparing work and more time executing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shipyards adopting this approach have reported:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Up to 5x faster planning for pipe spools<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Work orders delivered directly to welders and cutters at their stations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Significant reduction in paper-based coordination<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Increased automation driven directly from CAD data<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cPipe fabrication is where small inefficiencies quickly turn into real production delays,\u201d said Jarno Soinila, CEO of PipeCloud. \u201cBy connecting SSI\u2019s engineering data directly with our prefabrication and workshop execution environment, shipyards can move from fragmented processes to a more automated, production-ready workflow. The result is faster planning, better visibility, and a more efficient pipe shop.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About SSI<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>SSI develops software, services and expertise that enable shipbuilders to design, engineer and build complex vessels more efficiently.
