The National Shipbuilding Research Program. Proceedings of the IREAPS Technical Symposium. Paper No. 24: MAPLIS: An On-Line Materials Resource Planning System Tailored to the Shipbuilding and Offshore Industry

Abstract

MAPLIS is an on-line computer system for material management in yards building ships and offshore constructions. It consists of five modules or subprograms which may be installed separately or together as one integrated system. Material planning and control in MAPLIS starts in the design office with drawing files, material specification and purchase requests, continues with purchase orders, expediting, receiving, storage status and cost control and ends in work preparation with work orders, drawings and bill of materials. The system handles outfit and steel materials, both direct and stock items.
