Option 2 will be for installation of the Integrated Bridge System. System design, fabrication, and installation shall meet applicable American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), US Coast Guard (USCG), International Maritime Organization (IMO), and Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) requirements.

2. BACKGROUND:

The USNS Mercy (T-AH 19), hereafter MERCY, is a conversion vessel, originally built as a San Clemente Class, steam propulsion oil tanker, the SS Worth in 1976 by National Steel and Shipbuilding Company (NASSCO). The converted vessel was placed into service in 1986. The primary mission of the MERCY is to provide rapid, flexible, and mobile acute medical and surgical services to support military operations. The vessel also provides mobile surgical hospital services through other U.S. Government agencies for disaster or humanitarian relief.

The existing bridge, console, and ancillary equipment are from the original construction, and were relocated from the aft portion of the ship to the forward house during the conversion. This equipment was identified as obsolete and in need of upgrading during the 2016 Material Readiness Evaluation.

An IBS and rearrangement of the Wheelhouse (04-34-0), related spaces and equipment upgrades are required to allow for Military Sealift Command (MSC) navigation personnel to safely and efficiently operate the vessel. The Wheelhouse will be outfitted with an IBS that meets ABS and USCG requirements and is supportable for twenty years.

3. OBJECTIVE:

To describe the requirements for reconfiguring and upgrading the navigation bridge and supporting systems onboard the MERCY as part of the Service Life Extension Plan (SLEP) to ensure compliance with current and projected regulatory requirements and to suit operation of a civil service mariner (CIVMAR) crewed MSC vessel. The navigation bridge will be outfitted with an IBS meeting ABS MVR, ABS requirements for NBLES, IMO SOLAS Chapter V, USCG CFR’s, IEEE and any associated NAVSEA, MSC, and OPNAV instructions.
