“The material readiness of the surface force is well below acceptable levels to support reliable, sustained operations at sea and preserve ships to their full service life expectancy. Moreover, the present readiness trends are down. This situation has developed as the result of numerous, well intentioned changes in material readiness related organizations, policies and processes over the last decade. Resolution of the material readiness problems facing the force today and reversal of the downward trends will require enduring commitment in terms of people, funding, policies, organizational realignment and command clarification.”

Testimony to HASC (Subcommittee on Readiness)

5. Change is Needed
Fleet Review Panel / Study of Surface Community, identification of areas for improvement
VADM McCoy’s task to develop a comprehensive Assessment and Sustainment
INSURV Failures / Mission Failures
Glide slope for Extended Ship Service Life at risk
Success of Surface Ship Life Cycle Management Activity (SSLCM), realization that we needed more Surface Maintenance Engineering Planning Program (SURFMEPP)
Command changes resulting in CNRMC
TYCOM / CLASSRON Organization changes:
Why? Unambiguous assignment of roles & responsibility for Maintenance, Modernization and Readiness
Many sources of “motivation” for these changes…

13. Training Initiatives

14. Workforce Development (WFD)
“We need a force that is relevant with the right skills and is masterfully trained .”
– CNO, ADM Greenert
“[We are] developing standardized training plans for critical maintenance team members (Project Manager, Ship Building Specialist, Assessments Coordinator, Contract Specialist, Integrated Test Coordinator, Port Engineer, and Integrated Project Team) resulting in common standards and certifications.” - USFFC ADM Harvey
RMCs collaborated to develop six initial training courses (SBS, PM, Contract Specialists, Assessment Leader, Integrated Test Leader, and Maintenance Team)
FY12 funding to provide curriculum development and implementation at all RMCs
Provides a fully trained and mobile work force to increase success and match resources to workload
CNRMC to hire full time WFD Program Manager (DEC 11)
Fully developed curriculum for first six courses (Apr 12) 14

15. NAMTS Navy Afloat Maintenance Training Strategy (NAMTS)
NAMTS management function transitioned to CNRMC, Oct. ‘10
Sailors receive hands-on experience to support CNO directed self-sustainability concept
Sailors earn NAMTS NECs at Naval Shipyards and RMCs
Sailors with NECs are detailed to NAMTS NEC coded afloat billets
Increase shipboard self-sufficiency and ability to self-assess/”Find-Fix-Train” 15

16. Integrated Project Team Development (IPTD) Aligning People & Processes
Before – w/o IPTD
IPTD – laser focus on avail execution
As of Mid-December 2011, CNRMC was coordinating 39 active CNO Availabilities and planning an additional 23.
IPTD is now fully funded
Our goal is 300 IPTD events by FY13.
3 Nov 11

17. IPTD Goals and Objectives
Align Project Teams with shared mission, visions, expectations and strategies
Brings key stakeholders customers together (public and private) at specific times during advance planning and execution
Reinforce Project Team skills, roles and responsibilities, communications, meeting processes and accountability
Rapidly adopt/incorporate Lessons Learned and Best Practices from past availabilities
Review and refine project planning and execution products while applying project management methods, tools, and processes to availability planning and execution
Mitigates risks (availability planning and execution) through early identification of issues and communication
Provides professional development
Reduced availability costs

25. SSRAC Background

26. SSRAC Program
The Standard Specification for Ship Repair and Alteration Program (SSRAC)
Established in 1970 to carry out the development, revision, and control of standard specifications for ship repair and modernization work.
SSRAC’s Mission
To be the provider of choice for technically and contractually sound standards for the Navy's ship repair and alteration community
To reduce redundancy, increase proficiency, and provide a centralized database of standardized technical and contractual requirements
To provide safety/environmental standards for the Navy's ship repair and alteration community
To be a fully integrated team of members from all parts of the ship repair and alteration community working for a common goal of "setting the standards"

27. Annual SSRAC Meeting
Most recent meeting held Jul 2011 in Ponte Vedra Beach, FL
General direction given to all participants during opening briefs:
During review of all change proposals, give consideration to quality, certification and standardization
Provide rationale for each change proposal that supports the decision to adopt, not-adopt or adopt as modified
The Steering Committee and Sub-committees did discuss the ramifications of adding additional requirements into the standard items where needed to improve quality and certification of work
Compliance will take more effort and time
Improvements will increase costs in short term
Benefits of improved safety, quality and certification will reduce costs in the long run

28. SSRAC Steering Committee
Acts on the recommendations of the subcommittees (final point in the decision/approval process)
Handles issues that either cannot be resolved by the subcommittee or are beyond the scope of any one subcommittee.
