Marine and naval RFQ analysis: every item read against class rules
From thousands of pages to structured data

Every value traced back to the page it came from
Class and system parameters
Every valve, read against the class rules and the yard drawings
Loonar lays out the sea water, ballast, fuel oil and bilge scope tag by tag: bore, PN rating, end connection, body material, disc, seat, actuation and class approval, DNV type approval alongside the IMO ballast water convention and SOLAS fire test, each value tied to its drawing and page.
Technical deviations
Class approval and material deviations
Loonar rolls values against your certificate register: DNV type approval becomes one row for fifty-two items, not fifty-two checks. Bronze approval without super duplex, a missing SOLAS fire test report, sixteen-week super duplex castings: each is a deviation with its items and evidence. An unstated bilge main class scope is flagged before the yard assumes it.

T&C Analysis
Conflicting 3Additional Clause 11Aligned 24Needs review 7 Risk High 3Medium 9Low 33
ClauseClient clauseStatusAssessment & proposed rewording
6. Delivery > 6.4 Liquidated Damages 1% of contract value per day of delay against the yard's docking window, uncapped. Conflicting An uncapped daily rate tied to a dry-dock slot is the single largest exposure on this tender. Standard terms cap delay damages at 5% of order value. Assessed against Your_Company_GeneralTermsConditionsOfSale.pdf · p.5
12. Certification > 12.1 Class Certificates All certificates shall be issued in the yard's name and endorsed by the attending class surveyor before shipment. Needs review Certificates are normally issued in the supplier's name and transferred. Endorsement before shipment adds a surveyor attendance step that must be built into the schedule. Reword with AI
8. Liability > 8.3 Vessel Delay Supplier is liable for charter hire and off-hire costs caused by defective equipment. Conflicting Charter hire is a consequential loss and is excluded under standard terms in every case. This clause cannot be accepted without a mutual waiver. Assessed against Your_Company_GeneralTermsConditionsOfSale.pdf · p.6
4. Inspection > 4.1 Surveyor Attendance Class surveyor may witness pressure and functional testing with 10 working days notice. Aligned Surveyor witness testing with notice is standard practice on marine orders and is already covered by the works inspection procedure. Assessed against Your_Company_ComplianceCapability.pdf · p.5
10. Spares > 10.2 Onboard Spares A two-year set of consumable spares shall be supplied at no additional cost. Needs review Spares are normally quoted as a separate line. Bundling two years of consumables into the base price materially affects margin and should be priced explicitly. Reword with AI
7. Payment > 7.2 Retention 10% retention released 12 months after vessel delivery. Needs review Retention tied to vessel delivery rather than equipment delivery extends exposure well beyond our control. A bank guarantee in lieu should be proposed. Assessed against Your_Company_GeneralTermsConditionsOfSale.pdf · p.2
5. Packing > 5.3 Marine Packing Equipment shall be packed for sea freight with VCI protection and yard tag markings. Aligned Marine packing with VCI protection is our default for export orders and carries no additional cost. Assessed against Your_Company_GeneralTermsConditionsOfSale.pdf · p.3

The yard's terms, read clause by clause
Every clause is classified, risk rated and checked against your standard positions. An uncapped dry-dock daily rate, pass-through charter hire liability, retention held twelve months post-delivery: these surface above the twenty-four already aligned.
