Introduction

PMS317 PM Captain Scot Searles

Why LAW?

Evolving threats in the global maritime environment causing the Naval Forces to re-evaluate/adjust their CONOPs to meet the new challenges associated with maintaining persistent Naval forward presence to enable sea control and denial operations., LAW

Intended to provide Naval Forces the maneuver and sustainment vessels to confront the changing character of warfare.

LAW Background

What will LAW be?

Intended to be capable of:

Beaching on sand, gravel, shale, small stone, and man-made marine ramps.

Supporting on/offload of all existing USMC Rolling Stock PORs to beach areas with gradients of 1:40 or steeper, and fording depths of 42” or less

Operating at 14 knots for a minimum of 3500 nm

Transiting open ocean up to Sea State 5 while fully loaded

Enduring up to several weeks-long deployments and trans-oceanic transits

Operating within fleet groups, or deploy independently

Key Program Assumptions

The Navy… Anticipates a 6-8 month Detail Design and 24 month production Duration

Will choose between one of the 3 COAs Adapted Commercial Design

Alter Commercial Design

Build to Print with Historic Design Expects to leverage Industry’s commercial design with few tailored Navy requirements to meet mission

Desires to drive down life cycle costs:

The crew manning requirement identified is the maximum acceptable manning value Further reductions through technology is encouraged

LAW Industry 1 Day Recap/Update

Key LAW Attributes

The Navy considers the following attributes to be the acceptable levels :

75 Marine

LAW Industry Day 1 Recap/Update

Objectives of the RFI

The Navy desires to:

Understand Industry’s parent designs and their ability to meet the minimum attributes provided in this brief Understand the sensitivities/drivers to the parent design when modified to meet minimum attributes Understand Industry’s existing production capacity/ capability, and/or ability to partner to meet desired quantities in the required timeframe Understand any additional drivers to non-recurring engineering, production, and operating/support costs Evaluate information obtained from RFI for possible follow on Preliminary Design effort in late FY20/early FY21

Information Requested

The Navy requested that interested parties:

Identify specific attributes for which the minimum attributes can be exceeded for minimal cost increases Identify any specific attribute that is either a significant cost driver, and/or drives a significant design change With a description of the issue and preferred alteration, including the NRE ROM cost Identify any tradeoffs necessary to meet or exceed attributes Including production and cost impacts If tradeoffs are required, vendors are encouraged to prioritize based on cost and production schedule impact

The Navy request White Paper Information of ship designs w/attributes be submitted no later than 20 March

LAW RFI/Whitepaper Results Summary Significant interest from Industry with a wide range of RFI responses (12 white papers received)

RFI successfully provided:

Market research to determine that there are known concept designs and existing potential parent hull designs that could meet requirements for LAW RFI Provided required information to move forward with Industry Studies Post RET Group Company Type of Company SY = Shipyard DA = Design Agent Concept Developed or Parent Design Identified

A- (4) Provided concepts with characteristics to meet LAW mission set B- (5) Identified potential parent designs that could be modified to meet LAW mission set C- (2) Provided concepts/protoypes being developed for other missions that may overlap with some of the LAW mission set D- (2) Provided shipyard information only

RFI Next Steps The Navy review of whitepapers showed common themes Challenging Industry:

Fording depth + 1:40 beach gradient Speed Manning / Habitability One-on-One discussion will focus on challenges Additional studies may be required this calendar year to study challenge areas, as well as impacts to concept/parent designs, such as:

Production Timeline Detail Design Timeline Long Lead Time Material (LLTM)

The Navy intent is to issue an RFP for prototype Preliminary Design in the beginning of FY21

Breakout Discussions

Breakout Discussions will be held from 0930-1400 Schedules arranged by:

Shipbuilder or Shipbuilder/Design Agent Design Agent, Consultant, or Equipment Vender Each Breakout discussion will be 25 minutes long For those breakout sessions, any material provided, prior to or after, should be appropriately marked (i.e. Proprietary, company sensitive, etc.…) Material discussed pertaining to individual company’s information will not be shared. General information discussed but pertaining to group may be shared.

Once the Breakout session is concluded, the vendor is done for the day and shall hang up
