Solving operational issues onboard your vessels & offshore assets
On-demand manufacturing offers significant benefits for vessels and offshore assets
On-demand manufacturing allows spare parts to be fabricated when required, reducing the need for extensive spare parts inventories associated with traditional supply chains. It solves LPO issues including reducing Lead time, improving Part performance, and supporting the production of Obsolete spare parts. With on-demand manufacturing, your vessels and offshore assets can maintain better operational efficiency.
How does on-demand manufacturing solve your pain points?
1. Part Assessment
Through a feasibility analysis of your spare parts procurement data, we are able to identity spare parts that are in demand and understand the critical parts required on-board the vessel or offshore assets.
2. Part Identification
Through on-board vessel/asset visits and data assessment, we will work together with you to understand the pain points faced and identify spare parts that are suitable for on-demand manufacturing.
Thereafter, we will identify the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) that produces these spare parts and work together with them.
3. Part Re-design
Our engineering team will work together with these OEMs to finalise the process for on-demand manufacturing of these spare parts, including obtaining the relevant classifications required.
We will provide re-engineering expertise of the parts to improve the performance, if needed.
4. Part Printing
With a global network of manufacturing partners, we are able to allocate the fabrication of the part near to the point of need and match it to the technology and material that is required.
This ensures that the part is fabricated and delivered with a minimal lead time.
Benefits for you
Lead Time
Through on-demand manufacturing, spare parts can be printed near point of need. This reduces lead time and keeps vessels seaworthy and constantly moving forward without interruption.
Part Performance
On-demand manufacturing offers design changes, improves the part functionality and overall part performance. Our close collaboration with OEMs ensures that these spare parts meet relevant classification standards.
Obsolete/Legacy Parts
On-demand manufacturing allows you to replace a single obsolete part instead of whole systems. This reduces the need for unnecessary operational and supply chain costs.
