The downstream impacts of planning USS Lake Champlain (CG-57) DSRA that was planned yet subsequently cancelled on 4/2/2019, and the USS Decatur (DDG-73) / USS Stethem (DDG-63) EDSRA RFP with three pricing scenarios (now due 5/14/2019 to overcome challenges [was 4/22/2019]), has resulted in erosion of available days to focus on this RFP. This erosion of the planning timeline is hindering our ability to effectively/accurately estimate labor and obtain subcontractor and material vendor quotes.
