Abstract:

Shipyards, whether doing ship repair or new construction, typically have to deal with a highly variable product or service to perform. This high degree of variation means that bidding on contracts can be extremely difficult, especially in a very competitive market. With minimal profit margins and precious little time available to make bids, the pricing of new work can be hazardous unless there is a quick and accurate means for developing reasonable and reliable cost estimates.

Keywords:

block, cost estimate relationship, ship work breakdown structure, product oriented work breakdown structure, life cycle costs.
