If a vessel or asset isn’t operating or is difficult or costly to maintain, it’s a drain on organizational resources.
In many cases, downtime due to maintenance, repair or other activities can be accounted for. In other circumstances, unplanned failures can occur which threaten to upend even the most carefully planned operations. In all cases, a holistic view of a fleet’s lifecycle can help you understand, plan and carry out sustainment work in a way that maximizes availability and operational performance.
We offer real-world, practical knowledge of the best practices used by commercial and government fleets. We’ve developed and implemented fleet lifecycle management and integrated logistics (ILS) programs that have delivered measurable results in asset availability, maintenance hours and failure rates. We build in well-documented systems, processes and tools that continuously drive improvement, keep RAM considerations at the core of acquisition and design, and deliver new efficiencies and value. We can deliver ILS and support services for new acquisitions and work within existing systems and assets at any point in their life cycle.
Our lifecycle management capabilities include:
Our deep technical understanding of complex legacy platforms across all naval platform design disciplines sees us recognised by many of the world’s navies as experts in design change. We support, maintain, and improve naval platforms from life extensions to complex capability upgrades and combat systems integration. The aim, as always, is to facilitate design change that supports a high level of fleet time availability and operational readiness through affordable and timely solutions.
We apply engineering and analytical tool expertise to a submarine’s structural and mechanical systems throughout its life. Our damage assessments also consider the age-related degradation effects and long-term fate of issues from corrosion and mechanical damage to vibration, cracking, fabrication and design faults:
We help our customers realise performance, availability, reliability, cost and schedule improvements through effective maintenance management systems. Our management and consulting abilities help you develop, implement, execute and sustain these systems at a fleet and specific vessel level.
As well as on-site Port Engineering or Availability Project Management for vessel construction and modification, we support maintenance management in two key ways:
Our deep technical understanding of complex legacy platforms across all naval platform design disciplines allows us to understand and develop disposal or sales solutions as platforms reach the end of their useful life.
From disposal or developing design change solutions to enable selling on a platform to another user or developing end-of-life disposal solutions (e.g. Green Passports), our engineers bring a comprehensive range of skills to deliver affordable and timely solutions.
We specialise in the mathematical modelling and simulation of engineering problems, which helps you safely and accurately assess operational issues before implementation.
The ability to accurately monitor the performance and impact of abandoned or deteriorating assets is essential during their decommissioning.
We evaluate the suitability or interaction of materials to support design, maintenance, and investigations.
We are world leaders in managing reliability and retaining or restoring your technical assets to the necessary condition when carrying out maintenance.
Through simulation-based numerical methods ship designers can perform complex analyses more rapidly and at a reduced cost. Johnathan Green explains how the successful application of numerical modelling has helped to de-risk and expedite delivery of new BMT landing craft designs.
BMT and Greenline Marine unveil the 32-metre all-electric Greenline 150 Passenger Ferry, showcasing cutting-edge technology focused on efficiency and sustainability. This innovative ferry design aims to set new benchmarks for environmental standards, passenger comfort, and operational efficiency in the maritime industry.
An all-new concept developed in collaboration between T. Fotiadis Design & Lateral Naval Architects. With its striking streamline design, Spear combines efficiency, comfort, and expansive open spaces to create an unparalleled cruising experience.
In collaboration with Penguin Shipyard International, the BMT design iteration, called “MFV-R”, is an optimal ship design created to offer a second-generation external firefighting capability that goes ‘above and beyond’ standard FiFi Class 1 requirements.
The Royal Institution of Naval Architects (RINA) has welcomed Catriona Savage, our Technical Assurance and Capability Director, as the new President of the institution
The life extension programme provided by BMT ensures MV Africa Mercy can continue to provide life-changing surgeries to children and adults who otherwise would go without.
On Monday, 13 June 2022, BMT’s Gordon MacDonald was presented with an Order of Australia Medal (OAM). An honour that recognises Australians for outstanding achievement and service.
The Western Joint Branch Junior Design Challenge is an annual contest run for associate members of both RINA and IMarEST. The design competition aims to challenge pre-chartership level engineers to develop a design solution to an ongoing issue in the maritime industry.
