SERVICES
We deliver client-focused services through an integrated process that produces comprehensive results in the fields of ship design, shipbuilding and maritime consultancy.

1
Concept Design
Forming the initial phase of a project, the Concept Design consolidates the Client's specified requirements into a preliminary but feasible design proposal within a limited timeframe. Prerequisites for such a design are a solid overview of the maritime industry, a high level of experience, and strong creative skills.
Leadship's team already holds a considerable reference list of Concept Design projects and aims to expand it further through breakthrough designs.

2
Tender Design
The Tender Design is the outcome of the second phase of the design process, during which all key performance indicators from the Concept Design are expanded and validated through Approval in Principle from Class.
Once the official Tender Design package is delivered, Leadship offers guidance throughout the collection of offers from yards. Our deep knowledge of the shipbuilding industry helps secure favourable agreements, both technically and financially.

3
Basic Design
The official signing of a Shipbuilding Contract is followed by the development of a full Basic Design, which includes the submission of drawings, calculations and reports for Class and Flag Authority approval.
This process is project-specific and highly adaptable, depending on the requirements to be met and the documentation to be submitted. It therefore calls for extensive, continuous communication with both the selected yard's technical department and the Class representatives, while upholding the Client's requirements throughout.
Managing these parallel channels is familiar ground for the Leadship team, which ensures smooth project development.

Detailed Design
The shipyard or the selected contractor will further develop the approved Basic Design documentation to prepare the workshop and production drawings required for shipbuilding.
Where this scope is entrusted to Leadship, we deliver it in collaboration with our European partners in Detailed Design engineering, ensuring both the quality and the on-time delivery of a design that supports an accurate, efficient building process.
