Service Overview
Shipyard construction often occurs while the yard continues to operate building and repairing vessels in existing facilities while new infrastructure is constructed right next to active operations. Desapex’s 4D planning tools expertly manage the complex interfaces between new construction and ongoing, critical shipyard operations.
Our Digital-First Approach
Link 4D Timelines
Link construction activities to the 3D model to create visual construction sequences.
Core Deliverables
4D construction phasing with visualization of construction/operations zone boundaries.
Vessel movement coordination to prevent conflicts with ship launching or sea trials.
Heavy lift and marine construction sequence planning (e.g., cofferdam installation).
ISO 19650-compliant information management for multi-contractor construction.
Marine regulatory compliance documentation.
Why Choose Desapex
A construction activity that blocks vessel access to a dry dock can severely delay ship delivery and trigger major contractual penalties for the shipyard. Desapex’s 4D visualization gives construction and operations planners a shared, visual tool to identify and prevent these costly conflicts before they ever happen on site.
Unique Selling Proposition
Our USP is that Desapex’s 4D planning integrates vessel schedules and crane movement envelopes alongside construction activities. This provides the specialized, shipyard-specific operational awareness that generic construction scheduling tools simply cannot offer.
