Abstract
This report introduces the conceptual design of an accuracy control system for implementation into the modular construction of aircraft carriers at Newport News Shipbuilding.
A needs and feasibility analysis is accomplished for the proposed system. Advanced system planning is discussed. An economic analysis is accomplished on the proposed system detailing the monetary assets and liabilities the system represents.
The objective is to substantiate the potential benefits such a system would generate if incorporated in the carrier construction environment and provide a basis for subsequent system design activities.
