Shipbuilding and Marine Industry

The shipbuilding industry (maritime cluster) manufacturing ocean liners and the marine industry are significant contributors to Finnish industry. The sector operates in a highly competitive international environment, where innovation in passenger and customer experience development, as well as improvements in manufacturing efficiency, are critical drivers of business growth.

Digitalisation provides shipbuilding and marine companies with new opportunities to scale their businesses globally. Significant opportunities can be found in:

Leveraging digital work management in manufacturing and support processes
Improving and integrating processes to ensure that construction progresses smoothly and remains on schedule
Making more effective use of accumulated knowledge and expertise to optimise processes through data-driven decision-making
Expanding business operations into spare parts services and maintenance.

Design Workflow Management

Ambientia's solutions enable the coordination of design teams' work and the real-time tracking of the status and bottlenecks of various design tasks. The process also covers all necessary review procedures with internal and external stakeholders, providing transparency into the progress of design work.

Production and Change Management

As the shipbuilding process progresses, production activities and change requests can be coordinated transparently across different ship areas (such as zones and decks) and production stages (including hull construction and outfitting). This helps improve visibility into work in progress and optimise resources to ensure that work is completed on schedule.

Quality Inspections

The shipyard quality inspection process is highly complex and regulated. Multiple stakeholders are involved, and tracking all quality observations is essential to ensure that they are resolved and re-inspected according to their level of criticality. Approval workflows must also be documented clearly, enabling the appropriate stakeholders to sign off completed deliveries.

Because much of the work takes place in field conditions with limited network connectivity, our solutions also support offline mobile use.

Warranty and Aftermarket Services

The need for digital processes does not end when a vessel leaves the shipyard. Warranty-related observations and claims must be handled accurately to ensure that corrective actions are performed in accordance with contractual agreements.

Similarly, spare parts requests must be managed so that the correct parts are delivered to the correct port at the right time while the vessel remains operational.

Customer and Partner Experience

We develop customer and partner portal solutions that digitalise and integrate service processes and spare parts ordering across different stakeholder groups. This enables efficient collaboration regardless of time or location, even across global value chains.

Mobile Solutions for Field Operations Management

Working in a shipyard environment often requires moving between different areas of a vessel, while access to digital processes must be available everywhere, including during sea trials when required.

Our digital workflow management solutions enable efficient work even without a network connection.
