  • GAO-16-466R, Military Readiness
    441 G St. N.W. Washington, DC 20548 May 2, 2016 Congressional Committees Military Readiness: Progress and Challenges in Implementing the Navy's Optimized Fleet Response Plan To meet heavy operational demands over the past decade, the Navy has increased ship deployment lengths and has reduced or deferred ship maintenance. These decisions have reduced the predictability of ship deployments for sailors and for the ship repair industrial base. They have also resulted in declining ship conditions across the fleet, and have increased the amount of time that ships require to complete maintenance in the shipyards. Increased maintenance periods, in turn, compress the time during which ships are available for training and operations, referred to as employability. To address these issues, the Navy began implementing a revised operational schedule in November 2014, referred to as the Optimized Fleet Response Plan (OFRP). The OFRP seeks to maximize employability while preserving maintenance and training with continuity in ship leadership and carrier strike group assignments, and restoring operational and personnel tempos to acceptable levels. House Report 114-102, accompanying a bill for the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2016, included a provision that GAO review matters related to the Navy Optimized Fleet Response Plan.1 This report describes: (1) the extent of maintenance overruns and their impact on the Navy; (2) the Navy’s goals and progress in implementing the OFRP; and (3) challenges faced by public and private shipyards supporting the implementation of the OFRP. House Report 114-102 also included a provision that GAO review matters related to the Navy’s security procedures at shipyards.2 This report also describes Navy and industry officials’ perspectives on the impact that Navy installation and personnel security protocols, procedures, and policies have on the ability of contractor personnel to support Navy sustainment.

This Executive Summary lists the key findings of the 2018 Virginia State Parks economic impact analyses: ➢ In 2018, visitors to Virginia’s State Parks spent an estimated $249.1M in the Commonwealth. Approximately 46% [$113.7M] of this spending was by out-of-state visitors. ➢ The total economic activity stimulated by Virginia State Parks during 2018 was approximately $338.7M. ➢ The total economic impact of Virginia State Parks during 2018 was approximately $267.1M. Economic impact is a measure of “fresh money” infused into the state’s economy that likely would have not been generated in the absence of the park system. ➢ At the individual park level, economic impacts range from $961K to $31.3M (not including parks under development). ➢ In 2018, for every $1 of general tax revenue provided to state parks, $14.06, on average, was generated in fresh money that would not be there if not for the operation of Virginia State Parks.

  • Future USS Thomas Hudner (DDG 116) Successfully Completes Builder's Trials
    Another example of a mission ready ship because of a U.S. Navy Port Engineer Future USS Thomas Hudner (DDG 116) Successfully Completes Builder's Trials Story Number: NNS180402-13Release Date: 4/2/2018 2:43:00 PM From Team Ships Public Affairs BATH, Maine (NNS) -- Future guided-missile destroyer USS Thomas Hudner (DDG 116) successfully completed builder's trials, March 31, after spending four days underway. Builder's trials consist of a series of in-port and at-sea demonstrations that allow the shipbuilder, Bath Iron Works (BIW), and the Navy to assess the ship's systems and its readiness for delivery. "With the successful completion of these trials, we move closer to adding DDG 116 and her exceptional capabilities to the fleet," said Capt. Casey Moton, DDG 51 class program manager, Program Executive Office (PEO) Ships. "The Navy and industry team worked diligently to ensure the ship operates at peak performance." The DDG 51 class ships currently under construction are Aegis Baseline 9 Integrated Air and Missile Defense destroyers, with increased computing power and radar upgrades that improve detection and reaction capabilities against modern air warfare and ballistic missile defense threats. The Aegis Combat System will enable DDG 116 to link radars with other ships and aircraft to provide a composite picture of a battle space. When operational, DDG 116 and her sister ships will serve as integral players in global maritime security. Future Thomas Hudner will return to sea to conduct acceptance trials with the Navy's Board of Inspection and Survey later this spring. During acceptance trials, all systems and gears will undergo inspection and evaluation to ensure quality and operational readiness prior to the Navy accepting delivery.
