MK 54 Lightweight Torpedo Production Industry Day Torpedo Acquisition Strategy
Distribution Statement A:
Approved for public release, distribution is unlimited.
Welcome The Undersea Weapons Program Office (PMS 404) is responsible for:
Development, Test & Evaluation, Production, and Life Cycle Support of all USN Torpedoes, Targets and Torpedo Launch Accessories
Planning for Production Acquisition of MK 54 MOD 0 Lightweight Torpedo Kits and Common Parts for MK 54 MOD 1 for FY 16-20
Industry Day and Request For Information (RFI) is part of Market Research

LWT Torpedo Evolution
Utilizes the MK 50 sonar, the MK 46 warhead and Afterbody, and MK 48 algorithms with advanced Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) electronics
Torpedo Acquisition Strategy Intent:
MK 54 MOD 0 Torpedo has been in Full Rate Production (FRP) since FY 05 MK 54 MOD 1 Torpedo will start Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) in FY 15 In FY 15, MK 54 MOD 1 Common Parts will have been procured on the current FY 11 – 15 MK 54 MOD 0 Kits production contract (N00024-11-C-6410) In FY 16, the new MK 54 MOD 0 production contract will be awarded to produce MK 54 MOD 0 LWT for both USN and FMS, as well as the Common Parts for MK 54
MOD 1
Process:
Full and Open competition One (1) Award – Base Plus Four (4) Options Separate CLINs for up to 550 Kits of Common Parts and 550 MK 54 MOD 0 PGAs per year One (1) POM / First Article CLIN to qualify the obsolescence refresh design and contractor USN and FMS procurements made on the same CLINs to allow for economic orders Current budget projects about 50% of the potential procurement is USN. There are no current FMS cases for this contract but 22 Navies operate the aging MK 46 Torpedo with over 6,000 units, which need to be replaced.
PB-15 Budget Strong support for MK54 Torpedo both in Fleet and Navy Headquarters
Torpedo Acquisition Plan
All quantities are tentative and subject to change
Base OY 1 OY 2 OY 3 OY 4
FY16 FY17 FY18 FY19 FY20
Competition The Program Goal for this procurement is to provide effective, affordable, and high quality products for the USN and FMS. The Prime Factors in this procurement will be:
Technical approach to deal with obsolescence. The USN plans to qualify the design and contractor only one (1) time during the contract.
Risk Management approach that produces low or moderate risk for both the contractor and Government.
Quality approach that produces reliable products and is continuous and predictive to prevent problems (design or workmanship) from escaping to the Fleet.
Demonstrated success and experience in all the above.
Looking for Innovation and/or Proven Processes in Areas Above Process Efficiency and Manufacturing Quality are Critical Factors

– The CGA has no direct contact with the torpedo shell
– The CGA is conduction cooled through its mounting
All CGA external electrical interfaces are allocated to ten connectors. Each connector is defined by a specific part number and pinout
IMU is mounted on the rear of the CGA but is not considered to be part of it
CGA Mechanical Interfaces
Component obsolescence arises due to MK 54 long life cycle.
Wide variety of electrical devices and assemblies in close proximity.
– Produce high system electrical noise.
– Noise sources include Actuator kickback and Power Conditioner.
Various operational scenarios expose MK 54 to high shock and vibration levels.

Impacts to government software can protract contractor development and test schedule
Changes that affect software should be assessed thoroughly
Proper planning and development of SW can effectively reduce overall system cost and schedule

Public-Private Partnerships (PPP)
Benefits for Private Industry and the Navy Facilitates low-rate production
Reduced NRE through use of existing infrastructure, capabilities Leverages maintenance and test and evaluation expertise and proficiencies
Reduces technical risk to private industry, DoD programs, and the Fleet
Reduces cost impact of contractor support and test equipment (S&TE) and learning curve Encourages greater competition
“There is ample evidence that participants are finding justification, and partnering agreements are “win-win-win” situations for organic depots, commercial firms and the warfighters and their agents.” LMI, Public-Private Partnerships 2002
