# Project Overview:

Bechtel and Deloitte (Submarine Workforce Industrial Base (SWIB) procurement prime contractor) are partnering with the US Navy on a one-of-a-kind opportunity to streamline and optimize the submarine production process and develop a national strategic functional dry docks plan across the US. New submarine production is critical to the Navy and Nation and ship building plans call for greater production (by tonnage) than at any point since World War II. To meet this demand, the Navy is working with industry and the shipbuilders to support capital investments required to provide ship building and repairs facilities optimization, and industrial equipment to meet this surging demand. The U.S. Navy SWIB procurement will develop strategies to streamline facility builds or accelerate its investments in existing shipbuilding facilities, footprint, and machines/fixtures to achieve the 1 Columbia Class and 2 Virginia Class submarines per year production rate while also sustaining the existing fleet. This project spans several supporting activities and sub-objectives, in close partnership and coordination with the prime Blueforge Alliance, NAVSEA 04, the 4 public Navy shipyards, General Dynamics Electric Boat, and Newport News Shipbuilding. The following list are activities and objectives that are the focus of this project:

+ Develop a national strategic functional dry dock plan across public and private shipyards.

+ Determine both a near term critical equipment modernization roadmap and a long-term equipment modernization lifecycle.

+ Generate and implement strategies to accelerate current shipbuilding facility expansion.

+ Implement shipbuilding facility layout changes to optimize production and decrease shipbuilding and maintenance timelines.

+ Assist shipbuilders in determining methodologies for reducing inventory space requirements.
