 Marinette Marine Corporation (MMC) was founded along the Menominee River in Marinette, WI in 1942 to meet America's growing need for naval construction. Since our first contract to build five wooden barges, MMC has built more than 1,300 vessels. MMC is a full service shipyard with in-house capabilities to design and construct the most complex vessels. It has earned an international reputation for its ability to build technologically advanced vessels. Get a map to Marinette Marine |
Construction The ability to construct the entire vessel indoors plays a major role in the quality of the finished product and the contractor's efficiency. At MMC, vessels are constructed and outfitted completely indoors. When ready for launching, they are moved outdoors. Typically, vessels are 90 to 95% material and labor complete when launched |

| Production and Performance Stringent production and performance standards require a quality-minded corporate culture and work ethic backed by comprehensive quality assurance and testing programs. Efficiencies in production are achieved by constructing the vessels in a systematic series of panels, modules, and blocks. This technique allows the modules and blocks to be pre-outfitted to a very high degree, while internal compartments are still very accessible. |
 |
| Engineering Leader MMC's in-house engineering staff and skilled craftsman excel in highly efficient, modular, subassembly and assembly line manufacturing methods. Our integrated engineering methods and project management systems have enabled the shipyard to progressively build larger and more complex vessels. Because of the company's ability to deliver ships ahead of schedule and within contracted costs, the Navy has designated MMC a premier supplier. |
