Abstract

The management of complex ship overhauls is a subject which has received little attention in the technical press. In fact, this statement can be applied to the overhaul and repair business in general. This paper is intended to serve as a section of a bridge designed to span the information gap which has developed in this important segment of the industry. The authors discuss various aspects of overhaul planning and make recommendations for improving performance. They next present an organizational arrangement for conducting complex overhauls, including a suggestion to counter the adverse effects of specialization. Finally, they make a plea to collect and analyze statistical data to the end that correlation will show the way to improvements.
