Consultant - Shipyard (Job Code - 2026-27/N/03)

Vedam Design & Technical Consultancy Pvt. Ltd. is India's largest ship design house, with ~250 professionals delivering engineering design and technical consultancy to global maritime clients. Alongside our core ship design business, Vedam operates a specialised Shipyard & Maritime Infrastructure Consulting vertical led by a Technical Director with 30+ years of marine engineering experience. This vertical undertakes feasibility studies and Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) for greenfield and brownfield shipyards, ship-repair yards, marinas, and ship-recycling facilities, and supports evaluation studies for shipyard/repair-yard acquisitions. Vedam leads the technical scope directly — site layout, material flow, area optimisation, and facilities planning — while partnering with specialist external consultants for scopes outside Vedam's own expertise (financial modelling, coastal engineering, market studies, jetty structural design, etc.).

Report Preparation & Documentation Prepare formal, client-ready reports — feasibility studies, DPR chapters, evaluation reports — in structured, professional Word/PPT format under the Technical Director's guidance.

Prepare presentation decks, summary notes, and internal review documents as required. Maintain version control and a structured document/knowledge repository for ongoing and completed assignments. Process & Continuous Learning Progressively build working knowledge of shipyard/port infrastructure planning, DPR/feasibility study structures, and maritime industry fundamentals.
