The Contractor shall host the following readiness reviews: (1) Production Readiness Review (PRR), (2) Launch Readiness Review (LRR), and (3) Trials Readiness Review (TRR). Authorization to proceed shall be provided by the Government on the successful completion of each readiness review.

The PRR, LRR, and TRR shall be evaluated against the readiness criteria. The final review package shall contain a complete checklist citing all readiness criteria. Where appropriate, key criteria that must be accomplished either before, during or after the review must be listed, when submitting the review package. The intent is to clearly provide the agreed to criteria between the Government and the Contractor that, when met, denote successful completion of the readiness review.

Upon successful completion of the readiness review, the Government will certify that all exit criteria have been satisfied. In the event that the Contractor has failed to satisfy the entire exit criteria required for successful completion of the readiness review, the Government will provide the Contractor with formal notice of this determination together with a listing of the specific exit criteria that have not been satisfied and its rationale within seven (7) days.

C.3.042.9.3.1 PRODUCTION READINESS REVIEW

The Contractor shall successfully complete a Production Readiness Review (PRR) prior to the authorization by the Contracting Officer for the Start of Construction (SOC). SOC is defined as the commencement of steel-cutting for the ship. The purpose of the PRR is to demonstrate to the Government that proper management, engineering, and production requirements are adequately defined and implemented, and that design maturity supports initiation of the construction phase. The Contractor shall notify the Government of the PRR date forty-five (45) days prior to PRR.

The PRR shall be held at least fifteen (15) days prior to SOC.

The PRR shall demonstrate the design is sufficiently mature to start construction, the flow of Production Information will support production, and the status of material ordering, and delivery will support the proposed build schedule.

Any potential risk areas shall be identified, and mitigation plans discussed. The Government should be satisfied that all requirements specified in Attachment J-1a and references thereof have been incorporated into the design.

Within seven (7) days from the PRR, the Government will notify the Contractor whether or not SOC is authorized.

The Contractor shall meet the following PRR criteria:

1) Functional Design Completion: The ship’s Functional Design shall be one hundred (100) percent complete.
