This paper presents the experience of Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in applying zone 1ogic and outfit planning concepts to the overhaul, modernization, and repair of an aircraft carrier, three cruisers, and a submarine. Procedures were developed to involve design, production, testing, and material personnel in the overhaul process from preplanning through completion of the production phase, with the resulting synergism and open communication. The systems approach was rep1aced with zone by stage sequenced work packaging with as much work as possible done off the ship. Computer Aided Design (CAD) and photogrammetry were applied to enhance preplanning and off-ship work.

Group Technology or Zone Logic Technology has been successfully implemented in severe U.S. shipyards for new ship construction. This technology was originally conceived in the U.S. It was greatly refined by the Japanese and recently (beginning on 1978) reimported to the U.S. The technology replaces traditional system- by-system work with work organized zone-by-zone end by grouping similar work together with zones. This grouping of jobs enhances efficiency. Those yards in Japan where Zone Logic is an everyday way of working, find that this technology is very effective in large scale overhaul and modernization projects covering both alterations as well as repairs. The traditional approach of working by systems is difficult to manage with the degree of difficulty being proportional to the size of the project. Work performed utilizing the principles of Zone Logic provides a more effective management method. The application of Zone Logic to Ship Overhaul, as advanced by Zone Logic advocates, has actually been made in small isolated cases.

Management has been defined as the universal process of accomplishing work through others. It consists of handling and making decisions on many conflicting requirements at the same time. Because of this, management analysts try to eliminate the complexity by conveniently dividing it up into functions and then discuss each function and the relationships between them. The four functions that are always listed are: Planning, Organizing, Directing, and Controlling.

The NSRP 1985 Ship Production Symposium was held in Long Beach, California on September 11-13, 1985. It was sponsored by the Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers and the Ship Production Committee. The thrust of the program was "Moving Ahead With Implementation of Advanced Technology" and focused on the ongoing projects of the panels of the Ship Production Committee. Each panel was responsible for one of the symposium sessions and selected the 2-4 papers to be presented within that session. An additional session was added to cover Navy Production and Ship Repair. The symposium was a project of the SP-9 Education Panel and was financed through SP-9 with financial contributions from each of the other panels. It is one of many projects managed and cost-shared by The University of Michigan for the National Shipbuilding Research Program. The Program is a cooperative effort of the Maritime Administration's Office of Advanced Ship Development, the U.S. Navy, the U.S. shipbuilding industry, and selected academic institutions.

SNAME Panel SP-C on Marine Industry Standards is one of ten technical panels operating under the SNAHE Ship Production Committee. Priority shipbuilding research. and development standardization projects are funded jointly by the Maritime Administration, -the U.S. Navy, and the maritime industry. Projects which focus upon the publication and implementation of national standards are coordinated closely with Committee E-25 on Shipbuilding of the American Society for Testing and Materials. The results of these standardization projects have marine industry-wide applications that result in direct cost and time saving benefits in the construction and repair of Naval and commercial vessels.
