Abstract
This paper describes a new production management system designed specifically for the midsized or small shipyards. The system, called OPMIS (Object-oriented Production Management and Information System), was developed by the authors and has been applied successfully to the hull block assembly at Kanda Shipyard in Japan. The features and benefits of OPMIS are illustrated, including work scheduling and management, material and budget data, and assembly shop simulation. A key advantage of the program is that it has been planned to operate with both MS Office and Visual Basic on Windows 95/98 PCs in a user-friendly environment.
