1.1 BACKGROUND
The mission of NSWCPD is to transition HM&E machinery technology to the U.S. Navy active/reserve Fleet, and support various sponsors for Navy Modernization Programs. This requires development and execution of various Ship Changes (SCs) and SHIPALTs to upgrade and maintain system/equipment readiness of various Navy HM&E and electronic systems in a cost-effective and timely manner. This contract primarily supports large Modernization Programs and/or critical-path SCs/Alterations that are accomplished in Navy, Chief Naval Operation (CNO) availabilities. This contract covers industrial support for installations primarily on U.S. Navy Surface Ships, Carriers, Submarines and Service Craft. In addition, this contract also supports HM&E upgrades on Foreign Military Sales (FMS) platforms, Military Sealift Command (MSC), land-based test sites, and other DOD platforms.
As part of this mission, various NSWCPD Divisions support sponsors for program management, or are In-Service Engineering Agents (ISEAs) for their system/equipment for the transition of new technologies through the various acquisition phases. The Alteration/SC installation process consists of several acquisition phases, including advance planning, Research and Development (R&D), ship check, surveys, assessments, fabrication, prototype/proof-in install, final design shipboard installation, testing, lessons learned gathering and completion/close-out. Alteration / SCDs for ship specific systems and modifications must be authorized and mature in design before the work is to commence. This contract covers large Modernization Programs where NSWCPD is the ISEA for various HM&E systems and equipment. These Programs consist of critical-path SCDs/Alterations that are typically complex in nature and are crucial to the execution of meeting key production, light-off and testing milestones during ship CNO availabilities. In addition, these installs are intricate in system arrangement, interface and distributive system impact. Some of the programs supported include, but are not limited to:
· DDG51 Class Control systems: MCS, DCS, IBNS, GEDMS, Radar TLI, etc.
