This might be difficult to code but here goes anyway:
The idea is that the agent will "tune" your ship as a reward (yeah you know, like cars ;) so it will get small, but permanent improvements to its base stats. (cpu, capacitor, speed, armor,... whatever)
A great way for creating that "special bond" with your ship ;)

Actually, i quite like this idea.
The problem we have today is that tech1 ships are either throw away, 99% insured vessles, or super expensive OMG im never gonna use it in combat Named Ships.
Allowing a ship a set number of tweeks from agents (say a maximum of 3 or 4) would place an inhernet value on a ship that insurance cannot cover. Make the 'tune ups' moderatly easy to achieve (mid-ground LP offers) and not too powerfull, so that it is actually worth risking these vessles in combat.
The improvements themselves would have to all be balanced, otherwise only a certain type would be accepted. There would be two ways to do this:-
1.Make sure all the different tune ups had an identical end-product statistical worth.
2.Dont let the player choose. The offers could be something like 'Our R&D department needs someone to trial some of our newest tech'. If the person accepts a random tune up is applied to the vessle, that can never be removed 
This would provide a mid-ground between tech 1 ships, and the named vessles (currently you have many ascending shades of value named ship mods, but nothing similar with named ships).
Of course, this would be a nightmare to implement, all those new items in the database BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Pah, CCP's coders dont need sleep, right?
