Lean, Innovative and Unique Project Solutions
This was a multi-phase project with an aggressive schedule. This required extensive coordination with the working shipyard facility, which had a time-sensitive submarine berthing schedule. All work was performed inside the shipyard's highly congested and secured industrial area, which presented the logistical challenge of coordinating all personnel, material, and equipment movements. Additionally, the majority of the work was performed with barge-mounted equipment due to limited access from the shore.
