Offshore industry
To increase development speed and gain benefits of scale, the offshore sector is currently transitioning from engineer-to-order to configure-to-order. Discover how Modular Architectures can help accelerate this transition.
Let’s configure-to-order
Within the offshore sector, we see a strong tendency to move from a project approach to a product-oriented approach. Or in other words, shifting from an engineer-to-order (ETO) setup towards a configure-to-order (CTO) setup. All as a means to harvest significant benefits of reduced engineering lead time, early component purchasing, and volume-effects from repeat orders.
To make a successful transition, there is a need for describing a clear functional architecture and product structure that can accommodate complex system requirements and dependencies. By separating the options to create configurability, the standard stable core can be re-used across projects. This opens for the possibility of designing predefined solutions that meet future market requirements while cutting down engineering lead time from the critical path of delivery projects.
At CPC, we have a saying, that the same need should always lead to the same solution. And we help our clients achieve just that by defining a Modular Architecture. Together with leading companies in this field, we have co-developed clear interfaces and decoupling of modules. These facilitate quick and accurate quotations, and fast, efficient project execution with a 40-50% reduction of engineering hours per project.
