1.1 BACKGROUND

1.1.1 The Littoral Combat Ship Independence Variant (LCS-2V) fleet is facing significant obsolescence challenges with the Waterjet Control Unit (WCU) across LCS 6 through 38, impacting operational readiness and maintenance. These issues stem from obsolete and soon-to-be-obsolete hardware and software components, creating a critical sustainment risk for the Waterjet propulsion system. Different ships of the LCS-2V fleet face varying obsolescence timelines. LCS 6 through 24 are immediately impacted by obsolete Mitsubishi hardware and Beijer E1101 human machine interface (HMI) screens. LCS 26 through 30 is currently installed with the same obsolete Mitsubishi hardware, but the Beijer X2 Pro HMI screens are expected to become obsolete in 2027. LCS 32 through 38 face imminent software obsolescence with the WAGO Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) license expiration, in addition to the 2027 obsolescence of the Beijer X2 Pro HMI screen.

1.1.2 Compounding the obsolescence issues are recurring failures of steering and reversing hydraulic cylinders due to wire breaks, affecting maneuverability. These failures interrupt the signal path between cylinder position sensors and the WCU, Engineering Control System (ECS) and bridge control (Bullnose), impacting both the primary Follow-Up (FU) and backup Non-Follow-Up (NFU) steering systems. The current system architecture lacks redundancy, if there is a loss of signal from a FU cylinder, the system cannot determine the position of the cylinder. This vulnerability underscores the need for a software or hardware solution that allows seamless switching between FU and NFU signals in case of failure. To address the widespread obsolescence concerns, a comprehensive effort with the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) is desired, encompassing costs for developing initial solutions for the LCS 32 through 38 configurations, as well as backfit solutions for LCS 6 through 30. This would include funding for prototype materials, shipset materials for onboard testing, and software modifications to enhance system reliability and functionality. Another issue that the Navy is facing is that there is inconsistency in the software to view system parameters. To assist with troubleshooting there should be a screen on the HMI that displays the inputs of the system and their corresponding readings. The Navy needs a screen programed into software that will show system parameters without a passcode.

1.1.3 These cylinder failures are happening more frequently than originally anticipated when this software configuration was implemented. Now, after years of operation, it has become apparent that The Navy needs to have the ability to calibrate the Waterjets without relying on OEM support. When a cylinder fails, the ship must secure the effected jet and limit steering angles of the two neighboring Waterjets, significantly impacting the ship’s maneuverability. The ship must operate in this degraded condition until an OEM technician can be brought on board to calibrate the new cylinder after installation of a replacement part. Even when a cylinder is replaced in a timely manner, the Waterjet is still considered down until a calibration can be completed. The ships’ dependency on OEM support prevents the ship from performing and meeting its mission requirements which comes at a high cost both financially and operationally to The Navy. These software enhancements should include the ability to calibrate cylinders and Regal cards at the Ship/Shore Facility and the capability to inject NFU signals into the FU circuit in the event of FU cylinder failure, restoring bridge control.

1.2 SCOPE OF WORK

1.2.1 The contractor shall provide all labor, materials, equipment, specialty tools and software, and technical expertise required to fulfill the following scopes of supply.

1.2.2 Defense Maritime Solutions (DMS) shall develop a solution for the obsolescence of the WCUs on the LCS 2V class. This upgrade shall be implemented across the whole LCS 2V class for a total of seventeen (17) shipsets.

1.2.2.1 DMS shall develop and implement a solution on LCS 32 through 38 to enable installation and licensing of the requisite Lipstronic software on the WCU WAGO PLCs. This solution shall address the current inability to license and install the software due to the expired agreement with the third-party vendor. The deliverable shall include all necessary procedures, software modifications, licensing agreements, and documentation required to ensure long-term sustainment of the WCU PLC software across the affected LCS-2V hulls.

1.2.2.2 DMS shall develop a new HMI software update that will allow trained ships force to view and adjust Waterjet steering and reversing cylinder position parameters which will allow the individuals to better operate, troubleshoot, and maintain the equipment and significantly reduce equipment downtime. This software upgrade package shall include a passcode protected calibration page that allows trained personnel within The Navy to access necessary parameters to properly calibrate the Waterjet steering and reversing cylinders and Regal cards. DMS will develop instructions to be included with the delivery that outlines how to upload the software package.

1.2.2.3 DMS shall define the requirements and develop the changes needed to create feedback redundancy of the Waterjet sensors for the FU and NFU control systems. This feedback redundancy upgrade shall provide the capability to exchange the signals between the FU and NFU control systems. This scope is for the delivery of a software and hardware update package for the FU and NFU control systems, including ILS products such as removal, installation, and operating instructions, electrical control drawings and diagram updates, and any other necessary documentation changes.

1.2.2.4 DMS shall develop a software change that allows Navy personnel to access all logic parameters. This change should allow users to easily see all Waterjet system parameters without the need for a passcode or lock. The parameter screen can be used for viewing purposes only and allows personnel to troubleshoot the system. The screen should display the current pressures readings from all pressure transducers, along with all true or false signals that the WCU is reading.

1.2.2.5 DMS shall procure new HMI screens for LCS 26 through 38 to address impending obsolescence in 2027. This procurement will provide new hardware for the WCU, enabling visual monitoring of parameters and facilitating troubleshooting. The replacement screen should in theory be a form fit, and function replacement, but could also be a full replacement. This solution should also include any associated ILS products to be updated.

1.2.2.6 DMS shall develop and deliver a fully functional prototype of the proposed WCU system for the LCS 32 through 38 configuration. This prototype shall incorporate all hardware and software modifications outlined in the approved design solution and be demonstrably capable of replicating all WCU functionalities. The prototype will be used for comprehensive testing and validation to ensure its compatibility and performance meet or exceed the requirements of the existing system.

1.2.2.7 DMS shall develop comprehensive shipboard installation and testing procedures for the redesigned WCU system and execute those procedures on a designated hull with the LCS 32 through 38 configuration. The installation procedures shall detail all necessary steps for the safe and efficient removal of the existing system and installation of the new design, including any required ship alterations. The testing procedures shall define specific tests, metrics, and data collection requirements to validate the performance, functionality, and reliability of the new WCU in a shipboard environment. The tests carried out should prove the entire functionality of the Waterjet system. All test results and associated data shall be documented and delivered in a comprehensive test report.

1.2.2.8 In addition, DMS shall backfit obsolete Mitsubishi hardware and HMI screens for LCS 6 through 30. As part of this backfit solution, DMS should provide a solution for obsolete components and thoroughly test these replacements to ensure compatibility and performance. Moreover, DMS shall backfit new, supported parts to ships with obsolete components, and the software changes that were previously stated above, ensuring long-term maintainability and operational readiness across the LCS fleet. The solution should include the removal of old obsolete components and installation of new replacement parts. The solution should include changes that will have to be made due to the different hydraulic and electric configurations on 6 through 26, 28 and 30, and 32 through 38 hulls.

1.2.3 The contractor shall develop and perform any testing to shock qualify the new WCU before installing on the rest of the ship sets.

1.2.4 The contractor shall aid in developing any Ship Design Changes (SCD) that need to be completed. The contractor shall also help with the development of any documentation that goes along with any of these changes.

1.2.5 The contractor shall provide a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) cost estimate to complete the recommended efforts to the Waterjet steering system.
