Plan approval & site supervision
Independent technical oversight that protects the owner's interests from the first drawing to the delivery protocol.
- Presence
- Resident or periodic
- Reporting
- Weekly progress reports
- Focus
- Quality, schedule, QHSE
Class approval confirms compliance with the rules; it does not confirm that the vessel meets the owner's specification or operational expectations. Owner-side plan approval closes that gap.
Our supervisors review drawings, witness inspections and tests, monitor progress against the build schedule and enforce the Eastwinds QHSE Requirements on site.
Scope of service
- Review and comment on basic and detail design drawings
- Inspection and test plan review
- Witnessing of hull, machinery and outfitting inspections
- Progress, quality and schedule reporting
- Non-conformity tracking and close-out
- Harbour, sea and DP trials attendance
- Delivery documentation and acceptance
