Advise on major equipment and crane selection strategies
Translate technical trade-offs into clear decision frameworks for leadership

Greenfield shipyard or major brownfield re-architecture projects
Experience in high-throughput global shipyards or equivalent heavy industry
Involvement in automated panel lines and block assembly halls.
