Licensed Vessel Design: From Concept to Construction-Ready Plans

Expert Naval Architecture Design & Licensing Services

We provide specialized 3D vessel design and engineering services, culminating in a comprehensive digital package and licensing agreement that allows you to confidently proceed to construction at any shipyard worldwide. We transform your functional requirements and performance goals into a production-ready reality.

Our Guaranteed 4-Stage Design Process

Our methodology is specifically structured to ensure design accuracy and budget certainty, eliminating guesswork before fabrication begins.

Stage 1: Detailed Needs Assessment

We begin with an in-depth consultation to finalize all client requirements, including operational profile, desired dimensions, component integration needs, and target budget. This brief serves as the foundation for the entire project.

Stage 2: Concept Generation (4 Design Options)

Based on the approved brief, we create four distinct, rough 3D models. These rough concepts showcase different potential design approaches and visual configurations for your vessel, allowing you to easily compare options and choose the path that best meets your needs.

Stage 3: Refinement and Engineering Finalization

Once a concept is selected, we move into detailed design. We develop the chosen model into a fully engineered, high-resolution 3D asset. This stage includes refining all mechanical surfaces, optimizing structural integrity, and ensuring manufacturability.

Stage 4: Delivery, Licensing, and Documentation

The final, construction-ready design is delivered. This package includes all necessary files and legal agreements, empowering you to proceed directly to fabrication.

Key Deliverables You Receive

Our goal is to hand over everything your chosen shipyard or manufacturing partner requires to start building immediately.

  • Construction-Ready 3D Models: Final, optimized 3D files (e.g., STEP, DWG) for direct input into CNC machinery and production systems.

  • Comprehensive Component List (BOM): A complete Bill of Materials, including precise measurements, component specifications, and material requirements.

  • Vessel Licensing Agreement: A formal agreement granting you the legal rights to construct, own, and operate the designed vessel.

  • Marketing & Review Renders: High-quality visual assets for internal review, investment pitches, or promotional use.

Pricing Structure: Fixed-Price Confidence

For complex, high-stakes projects like licensed vessel design, we operate on a fixed-price, milestone-based fee structure rather than variable hourly billing.

This approach gives you complete budget certainty and protects against unforeseen scope creep. The fixed project fee is calculated internally based on the complexity and the anticipated workload (typically ranging from $100 to $150 per hour for specialized naval design work).

Fees are broken down into four manageable payments tied directly to the completion of the milestones outlined above (e.g., deposit after Stage 1, payment after Stage 2, etc.).
