Performance Measurement in Production and Support Areas of a Shipyard

Abstract

This project, which resulted from two project proposals (8-90-1 and 8-90-2) presented by SP-8, was funded because it was widely recognized that traditional methods of performance measurement within operations areas of U.S. shipyards are not adequate to support contemporary shipbuilding methodologies and business practices. The purpose of this project was to identify and test some alternative performance measurement methods that might be more appropriate for modem shipbuilding and business operations, and to establish a generic methodology for implementing new performance measurement methods in a shipyard.
