An Alternative Incentive System to Improve Productivity at the Turkish Naval Shipyards

Abstract

This thesis researches to identify an alternative incentive system and determine whether it is feasible to implement it at the Turkish Naval Shipyards. The purpose of the incentive system would be to help the shipyards decrease cycle time and total cost, and increase productivity and readiness. This thesis also researches to determine the structural and statutory constraints to the implementation of such an incentive system. The thesis examined the current structure, routine processes, productivity, and compensation system at the Turkish Naval Shipyards. In this thesis, Arena Simulation Software is used to simulate and analyze the current overhaul process within the shipyards. The thesis also examined the alternative incentive systems that can be implemented at the shipyards. This thesis proposes a viable incentive system for the Turkish Naval Shipyards.
