“Not having to share around paper is a huge time savings. If a designer asks me to go look at something I can be there in seconds. CoLab is always open on our computers and it tracks the work from the review to the construction stage”

Join the future with an agile and collaborative approach to shipbuilding.

Ships are built as a unified team, across organizations. CoLab unites that team in a secure, collaborative environment. CoLab makes your team more effective, reduces your program costs and shortens review cycles,so you can build ships together.

CoLab is built to handle the review process of shipbuilding projects - both government and commercial. Instant communication, real-time feedback processes and automated quality metrics will supercharge your team’s day to day process.

The digital hub that allows you to collaborate with your team and partners to build world-class ships in record time.

One Location for Real-Time Model Feedback, RFIs and Discussions

Centralized access to all of your 3D models - review designs together, capture feedback and markups directly on the model. No more collating comments from multiple Navis model reviews and other sources - Review one model, in context.

Collaborative Drawing and MI Reviews

Marking up drawings on paper or through desktop PDF tools results in duplication and misalignment. Review drawings and documents together on the web in real time. When you are ready to move it to the next stage or share externally, simply share the latest revision to the next workspace.

Complete Oversight for Improved Quality

Every piece of feedback, issue or markup is tracked in CoLab and can be managed from a suite of dashboards. By using CoLab, you can automate the generation of the data needed for quality reports, meeting minutes and design decisions in a few clicks.

The digital hub that allows you to collaborate daily while building and maintaining world class digital twins.

Aerospace and defense contractors use comprehensive product lifecycle management tools to manage complex, multi-disciplinary design projects. The complexity of these solutions limit their effectiveness for day-to-day design collaboration. CoLab reduces friction between project stakeholders, enhances security and standardizes your design review and issue tracking process.

In the Aerospace and Defense industry, your projects are governed by a set of very important and complex regulations from the FAA, ITAR and other bodies. CoLab will allow you to standardize your communication, review and issue tracking processes and even automate the generation of design histories and changes. By working in CoLab your team will be able to auto-generate reports and histories needed for regulatory approval, while improving the overall quality and reliability of your solution.

Eliminate budget overrun and eliminate preventable engineering changes. CoLab enables teams to collaborate from day 1 and have the visibility they need to catch and resolve issues before they become expensive change orders.
