4. CNO Guidance for 2011
Chief of Naval Operations, ADM Gary Roughead on the importance of Total Ownership Cost Reduction,
from his “CNO Guidance for 2011, Executing the Maritime Strategy”:
“ …we are identifying areas in which we can reduce costs, streamline operations, …
“Our TOC reduction effort includes leveraging multi-year buys, engineering maintenance requirements, pursuing common designs and open architecture, and consolidating infrastructure to more efficiently and effectively run our Navy.”
“We are making TOC a part of all our decisions.”
“We will mature the process to identify, select, and fund TOC reduction initiatives …”
CNO has made toc reduction a priority:
At his level, the ownership cost of the navy includes the bases/infrastructure, the people (mil/civil), the contracts/contractors, rdte, st, etc
At Carriers have made toc a central focus since 1996 –
MNS CVNX/CVN21/CVN78 Program (LPD digression) – had to first fully understand what our TOC was…..
Planned life expectancy of the fleet has gone up / shipbuilding plan. CVNs constant at 50 years…. Focus then on LC Maint to get full service life but corollary is that have to work hard to ensure you don’t move up an ownership cost curve as the ships age……. And deal with obsolescene …….

9. RCOH Program Description
CVN Mission: To support and operate aircraft to engage in attacks on targets afloat and ashore which threaten our use of the sea and to engage in sustained operations in support of other forces.
RCOH: Mid-life depot availability to accomplish reactor refueling, warfighting modernization, and repair of ship systems and infrastructure so the ship may adapt to future mission requirements and meet continued service life requirements. The RCOH program recapitalizes NIMITZ class aircraft carriers to provide for reliable operations during its remaining 23 plus years of ship life using only the normal maintenance cycle.
CVN 68 Class Description: Length overall: 1092’
Beam: 134’
Displacement: 91,878 Tons
Draft: 38.7’
Platforms: CVN 71 (FY09-FY13)
CVN 72 (FY13-FY16)
Employment: Procure and provide Aircraft Carrier Life Cycle support to enable Naval Aviation strike operations in support of Naval, Joint, and Coalition Force Operation 9

20. CVN 78 TOC Reduction (Compared in constant $FY04)
Manpower reductions of 800 from ships force. New propulsion plant, EMALS, all electric systems require reduced watchstanders and reduced maintenance. Goal is billet reductions.
Maintenance reductions – all electric systems, 12 year dry docking interval, reduced components/system counts
Each ship in the new class will save $4.48B over its 50 year life.
For 10 ships, that equates to ~$50B (in constant $FY04)
