The recent innovations in marine technology ensure providing great number of opportunities for shipbuilders especially in equipment selection. However, a critical decision-making problem has arisen to manage the optimum choices and integrity in marine system design. This paper proposed Fuzzy Information Axiom (FIA) based decision-making systematic which aids to primarily design layouts for carrying out shipbuilding projects. As a case application, the principal components of the compressed air system are comparatively assessed in order to identify optimum configuration. The proposed FIA-based approach provides invaluable supports for enhancing the communication network between the shipyards and marine equipment manufacturers.
