People and organization

Every structure we install is kept alive by people: foremen who run their own teams, managers who are present on the floor, and an in-house school that passes on the basics. We build those capabilities inside the yard, so the change outlasts our engagement.

Building ships is building people.

When to call us

You may recognize these.

  • Improvement programmes fade when the consultant leaves.
  • Foremen supervise, but do not plan or own their team’s rhythm.
  • Management reads reports instead of walking the floor.
  • Training is treated as a cost, not an investment.
