(a) NAVSEA S9086-CQ-STM-010 - NSTM Ch apter 081 R4 (Waterborne Underwater Hull Cleaning of Navy Ships) (b) NAVSEA 389-0288 - Ra diological Controls (c) NAVSEA S0600-AA-PRO-010 - Unde rwater Ship Husbandry Manual 1.1 PURPOSE. To implement the program requirements delineated in references (a), (b) and (c), and to provide guidance for waterborne hull cleaning of naval ships. This process applies to all surface force ships, submarines and aircraft carriers. 1.2 SCOPE. As stated in reference (a), commercial and Naval experience has demonstrated that appreciable savings in energy are obtainable by maintaining smooth underwater hull and propeller surfaces through periodic waterborne hull cleaning. Additionally, a hull-cleaning program provides a means in which hull damage can be detected in early stages and corrective action can be taken. The hull cleaning and propeller polishing requirements of this instruction apply to all ships. It is intended to conserve fuel, restore effectiveness of sonar systems, and reduce ship self-noise, which increases anti-submarine warfare effectiveness. Reference (a) provides necessary criteria, methodology, and guidelines for waterborne underwater ship inspection and cleaning. Reference (a) provides a rating scale for inspecting and reporting fouling, fouling thresholds to initiate cleaning, approved cleaning equipment for various underwater ship systems (i.e., hull sections, appendages, dome, masker or prairie air), cleaning requirements, safety precautions and procedures for cleaning, guidelines for establishing cleaning intervals and documentation and reporting requirements. To meet the objectives of reference (a), special attention will be given to ensure that appropriate action will be taken to clean ships within 30 days of deployment. 1.3 POLICY. a. Scheduling of periodic cleaning will be the responsibility of the Type Commander (TYCOM) and accomplished per reference (a). Full, partial and interim cleaning must be accomplished by diving activities (military and civilian) certified by Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) code 00C. b. Full hull cleaning will only be accomplished by NAVSEA divers contracted for worldwide waterborne underwater hull cleaning services. Interim or partial hull cleaning will be done by a certified navy activity or NAVSEA contracted service. c. The execution of waterborne underwater hull cleaning operations must follow best management practices delineated in reference (c) to maximize hull-cleaning effectiveness and to minimize the release of hull cleaning by-products into surrounding waters. 1.4 RESPONSIBILITIES. An effective hull-cleaning program that ensures the delivery of reliable, environmentally sound, and quality services to the Fleet requires the well-coordinated effort of several organizations. Together, these groups must manage the planning, execution,

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 1 15 Jan 2021 VI-4-2 submarine and Strike Force EMI problems. Since some SEMCIP elements are normally associated with the development of new systems, all elements will not be discussed here. 4.3 ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY CERTIFICATIONS AND EMI SURVEYS. EMC certifications are an important line of defense against shipboard EMI problems and are performed by NAVSEA designated activities for the purpose of testing various shipboard systems for EMI degradation. During an EMC Certification or EMI Survey, EMI problems are investigated and evaluated, applicable EMI fixes are installed and effects of EMI on each system tested is ascertained and recorded in STAN. 4.3.1 Surface Ships and Aircraft Carriers Electromagnetic Compatibility Certifications. Deploying surface ships and aircraft carriers will receive an EMC Certification from a NAVSEA qualified activity following CNO or extended maintenance availability periods (more than 120 days) or major topside changes prior to deployment. EMC Technicians are billeted onboard CVN, LHA and LHD class ships and at Regional Maintenance Center (RMC) or Fleet Maintenance Activity (FMA). Ships may submit requests for EMI or EMC technical assistance from co-located CVN, LHA, and LHD class ships through their normal chain of command channels. Ships may submit requests for an EMI or EMC technical assistance to the RMC or FMA by submitting an OPNAV 4790/2K. OPNAV 4790/2K should be used to document maintenance actions as part of an Availability Work Package (AWP) for completion during CNO availabilities or prior to and in preparation for EMC Certification. Since there are differences in the systems and processes between platforms, they will be discussed separately. 4.3.1.1 EMC certification consists of four phases: a planning and test plan development phase, an in-port certification testing phase, an underway certification phase, and reporting phase. 4.3.1.2 EMC certifications should not be scheduled coincidental with evolutions that restrict either antenna radiation or personnel movement about the ship. 4.3.1.3 EMC certifications must be performed per the requirements of reference (c), and include, but are not limited to: a. Using STAN to verify that all availabl e EMI fixes have been installed, or if not installed, documented in ship’s Current Ship’s Maintenance Project. b. Performing topside visual surveys to ensu re the ship conforms to the applicable topside electromagnetic control drawing as specified in STAN for that ship. c. Performing High Frequency Inte rmodulation Interference (IMI) test. d. Performing IMI source location when IMI level exceeds the 19th product order. e. Performing broadband noise test. f. Performing source location wh en broadband noise is detected. g. Performing Time-Domain or Frequency-Do main Reflectometer measurements on all high frequency, very-high frequency and ultra-high frequency transmission lines. h. Conducting Voltage Standing-Wave Ratio tests on all high frequency, very-high frequency and ultra-high frequency transmit antennas. Where transmission lines and antennas are coupled and cannot be easily separated, reconnected and weather- proofed, testing of transmission line and antenna combinations may be performed via

p. 77

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 1 15 Jan 2021 VI-4-3 Time-Domain Reflectometer or Frequency-Domain Reflectometer, satisfying the testing requirements of this paragraph and paragraph 4.2.1.1.3.g. i. Performing insulation resistance tests on high frequency antennas, where required by the Planned Maintenance System (PMS). j. Documenting all discrepancies noted on OPNAV 4790/2Ks. k. Assisting Ship’s Force with hands-on tr aining and technical guidance in correcting discrepancies as appropriate. 4.3.1.4 EMC Certifications. EMC certifications should be scheduled during the O-FRP “Maintenance” phase per reference (d), immediately following the ships Target Configuration Date (TCD) and following periodicity requirements and prerequisites contained in reference (e). 4.3.2 Submarines Electromagnetic Compatibility Certifications. 4.3.2.1 Submarines will receive pre-deployment EMI Surveys from a NAVSEA qualified activity. Ships may submit requests for an EMI or EMC technical assistance to the RMC or FMA by submitting an OPNAV 4790/2K. OPNAV 4790/2K should be used to document maintenance actions as part of an Availability Work Package (AWP) for completion during CNO availabilities or prior to and in preparation for EMC Certification. Since there are differences in the systems and processes between platforms, they will be discussed separately. 4.3.2.2 EMI surveys require up to four working days depending on the ship class being evaluated. EMI surveys can be accomplished concurrently with most submarine work but must not be scheduled coincidental with evolutions that would impede access to the forward sonar and communications system units or cause power-down of systems during the EMI survey without prior notification of the EMC technician conducting the testing. If equipment must be powered down, the EMC technician will determine if further EMI testing can be accomplished. For an accurate assessment of the submarine EMC posture, the ship’s forward electronics must be energized as close as possible to the ship’s at-sea lineup. The electronics and hydraulics for both multifunction mast antennas must be operational. In addition, crane service is required to lift two antenna shields (approximate weight 130 lbs. each) to cover both partially raised multifunction mast antennas for testing. Major sonar, communications, fire control or navigation system casualties will cause test data to be invalid. EMI surveys must be performed, per references (f) and (g), by qualified NAVSEA or NAVSEA designated activities and include, but not limited to: a. Using STAN to verify all availa ble EMI fixes have been installed. b. Briefing Ship’s Force on the details of the EMI Survey and discussing testing time- lines and potential impacts. c. Coordinating antenna shield installati on and removal with the ship, RMC or FMA and port services. d. Performing a visual survey in the su bmarine to verify EMI corrective action installations in sonar and communications equipment and to look for potential EMI coupling areas associated with these systems.

Documenting all discrepancies noted on OPNAV 4790/2Ks. 4.4 FLEET ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY SUPPORT TOOLS. SEMCIP provides Fleet EMC support tools to help eliminate emergent EMI problems between certifications. When a ship encounters an EMI problem beyond the scope of Ship’s Force and RMC or FMA capabilities, outside technical assistance can be arranged on short notice. The problem should be reported per guidance in Chapter 5 of this Volume. In addition to the normal message addressees, the message should also be sent to COMNAVSEASYSCOM WASHINGTON DC//05H4//, NAVSURFWARCENDIV DAHLGREN VA//B54//, NAVUNSEAWARCENDIV NEWPORT RI//3431// (submarines only), COMNAVWARSYSCOM SAN DIEGO CA //051- 1C//, INFO COMNAVIFOR SUFFOLK VA, NAVINFOWARDEVCEN NORFOLK VA. NAVMARSPECCEN FT GEORGE G MEADE MD and appropriate regional Navy and Marine Corps Spectrum Office (NMCSO) as outlined in reference (h). The following paragraphs list additional support resources that will improve the warfighting readiness of EM Spectrum Dependent Systems (SDS). a. SEMCIP Technical Assi stance Network (STAN): The official repository for EMC and EM radiation hazard (RADHAZ) data for systems, ships, submarines and strike groups certifications for all SDS. RADHAZ includes several subsets (e.g., Hazard of Electromagnetic Radiation to Personnel (HERP), Hazard of Electromagnetic Radiation to Fuels (HERF)). Primary products include EMI brief sheets and associated affected ships list, EMI test procedures, tailored ship equipment lists and an Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) document library. Additional products are available in STAN, such as EMI problem listings by selected criteria, EM control drawings and the EMC Certification test plan generator. STAN access and familiarity is highly recommended for all units. Requests for STAN access is obtained via the STAN web site https://semcip.nswc.navy.mil. b. Air Systems Electromagnetic Interfer ence Corrective Action Program (ASEMICAP): ASEMICAP provides E3 systems engineering support to the Fleet and NAVAIR team to ensure E3 hardness of operational aircraft systems, subsystems and equipment

p. 79

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 1 15 Jan 2021 VI-4-5 throughout their life cycles. The primary task is to provide deck plate engineering and technical support to the Fleet in an attempt to rapidly resolve E3 problems while striving to elevate Fleet E3 capabilities through a dedicated process of deck plate support. The emphasis continues to be immediate response to EMI issues through engineering solutions for operational aircraft systems and equipment. The increasing reliance on Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) and the resultant demands on the congested EM operational environment (EMOE) forces improved Electromagnetic Spectrum (EMS) awareness and impacts of aviation operations by Sailors and Marines. ASEMICAP also provides engineering and technical support directly to Fleet units to resolve EMI problems and represents Fleet interest within the acquisition community. ASEMICAP is located on NIPR at https://asemicap.navair.navy.mil. c. NAVSEA EMI Capability and Limitati ons (EMI C&L) Portal: The EMI C&L provides the Fleet a central repository for ship-specific EMI and EMC information. The data is tailored for EMI C&L individual ship and strike forces and provides an overall force-wide EMI and EMC perspective. The C&L portal includes information on shipboard characteristics, coverage plots for selected communications and weapons systems, host nation frequency restrictions (HNR), for all SDS and RADHAZ limitation information. The portal is located on SIPR at http//cnl.phdnswc.navy.smil.mil/emi_cnl/default.htm. 4.5 ENGINEER ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE FIXES. SEMCIP EMC engineers identify and characterize new EMI problems and develop and formalize solutions for these problems. When new EMI problems are detected through testing, per references (c), (f) and (g), SEMCIP engineering will develop a fix. SEMCIP engineering also updates standard EMI test procedures for references (c), (f) and (g). 4.6 SHIPBOARD FULL-SCALE ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY EVALUATIONS. Shipboard full-scale EMC evaluations are performed by NAVSEA in the lead ship of a class or in individual ships at the conclusion of any major event (such as conversion, modernization or overhaul) which could affect the EMC status of the ship. SEMCIP engineering teams energize, test and evaluate the capability of electromagnetic emitters and sensors to operate simultaneously on the same ship without interference. 4.7 ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY CERTIFICATION. NAVSEA 05H coordinates EMC Certification in new construction ships, ships undergoing industrial availabilities and ships receiving new systems both in and outside of industrial availabilities. The EMC Certification testing is conducted by NAVSEA or NAVSEA-qualified activities. There are two types of EMC Certification: System and Ship EMC Certification. Each type is addressed in this section. 4.7.1 System Electromagnetic Compatibility Certification. System EMC Certification ensures all newly installed electrical and electronic systems are compatible with previously installed systems. System EMC Certification will be accomplished per reference (e) for surface force ships: a. For electrical and electronic systems installed by Fleet or Program Alterations following the Navy Modernization Process, Management and Operations Manual (NMP-MOM).

p. 80

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 1 15 Jan 2021 VI-4-6 b. Following the System Operational Verifica tion Test or other operation test for the newly installed system. c. By NAVSEA 05H4 test team for the first two ships of a class, flight or baseline. d. By Program Acquisition Resource Mana ger, Ship Program Manager, Naval Supervisory Authority, RMC or FMA or a contractor witnessed by a government activity for the subsequent System EMC Certifications using test procedures provided in references (c) and (f). e. System EMC Certification requirements mandate: (1) The system has an approved (Stage 4) Application for Frequency Allocation (JF-12). (2) No mission-degrading EMI has been introduced by installation of the system. (3) EMI fixes have been installed to correct mission-degrading EMI caused by the installation of the system. 4.7.2 Ship Electromagnetic Compatibility Certification. Ship EMC Certification ensures all shipboard systems are compatible with each other and topside EMI mitigation treatments are in place. Ship EMC Certifications will be accomplished per references (e) and (i). Ship EMC Certification requirements mandate: a. All “available EMI fixes” that correct mission-degrading EMI problems are installed. Available EMI fixes are fixes that have been developed and listed in the STAN database. An “available EMI fix” is required for certification even if the kit or parts are not in stock. In that case, priority would be given for procurement and installation of the fix required for certification. b. All mission-degrading EMI problems that re main uncorrected due to non-availability of EMI fixes must be identified and reported to the ship’s Commanding Officer (CO). c. All discrepancies causing IMI above the 19th order must be corrected. IMI levels are defined in reference (c). 4.8 ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILTY CERTIFICATION MAINTENANCE. System Commands provide support during ship construction and CNO Maintenance Availabilities at industrial activities to achieve EMC certification. It is the responsibility of the Type Commander, the RMC or FMA and Ship’s Force to maintain EMC at the highest level practical. EMC technical billets (Navy Enlisted Classification (NEC) ET-1419 surface) have been established in reference (j) for RMCs or FMAs, aircraft carriers and selected larger ships to provide technical assistance to Ship’s Force in maintaining EMC. These technicians conduct EMI inspections, install known fixes, test for problems and investigate new problems. 4.9 RESPONSIBILITIES. a. Type Commander should: (1) Coordinate with the System Commands in identifying, solving and correcting operational EMI deficiencies.

p. 81

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 1 15 Jan 2021 VI-4-7 (2) Prior to promulgation, review a nd authorize all documents prepared by technical agencies that contain procedures relative to EMI reduction and the fleet EMC process. (3) Evaluate comments and recommenda tions regarding EMI reduction and the fleet EMC process. If necessary, issue changes to existing policy and procedures. (4) Ensure participation of each aircraft carrier, surface force and submarine EMC technician in at least one EMI survey every 6 months. Qualified EMC technicians must meet this requirement to retain qualification status. b. Group, Squadron and Regional S upport Group Commanders should: (1) Schedule EMC certifications prior to deployment for each unit. For submarines, the EMI Survey should be conducted within two months of deployment during Pre-Overseas Movement 2, take up to four days to perform and can be scheduled concurrently with most shipboard evolutions provided power is not secured to a major system. NAVSEA personnel will be contacted to perform the EMC certification. (2) Review and take the appropriate ac tion to correct EMI discrepancies on EMC reports for subordinate units. (3) Request SEMCIP engineering assistance when determined necessary. c. RMCs and FMAs should: (1) Maintain qualified EMC personne l (NEC-1419 for Surface Force Ships and Aircraft Carriers) in coordination with NAVSEA 05H4 and ensure that test equipment assets are available to perform EMC assessments and surveys. (2) Assist aircraft carriers, surface force and submarines in conducting EMC- related PMS procedures when requested. (3) Conduct EMC certifications per applicab le references (c), (e) through (i) and (k). (4) Install authorized limited correc tive actions when required in STAN. (5) Write a naval message, prior to depar ting the ship, describing the results of the EMC certification using the latest message formats.

A Equipment Operational Capability Range of Values and Definitions. 5.1 PURPOSE. The purpose of this chapter is to provide guidance on accurately documenting ship’s material condition and on ensuring that this documentation is done in a timely and expeditious fashion. Deficiency documentation is used for determining and reporting a ship’s material condition to ensure maximum operational readiness, maintain an adequate quality of life for embarked personnel, maximize safety for all personnel and ensure the ship reaches its designed service life. This documentation will be used for: a. Accurate and timely ma terial readiness reporting. b. Reporting ship material de ficiencies, requests for maintenance assistance or support equipment from off-ship maintenance activities and the documentation of completed maintenance actions. c. Maintaining an accurate Current Ship’s Maintenance Project (CSMP). d. Maintaining an accurate and curr ent ship’s configuration database. 5.1.1 Background. a. The Navy has identified the need for a more near real time, accurate and comprehensive understanding of an activity’s material condition in a more timely fashion to support fleet material readiness reporting. Additionally, this information is used in developing, planning and executing more thorough and comprehensive maintenance availability work packages and to better project future material condition readiness and actionable trends. b. Using existing maintenance documenta tion (Casualty Reports (CASREP), 3M Maintenance Action Forms (2 Kilo), Class Maintenance Plan (CMP), etc.), material readiness is calculated for equipment, systems, activities, ships or ship classes against various tasks, missions and warfare areas. This information is used by Navy leadership to determine an activity’s ability to perform a desired mission or task, and

If liquid gasoline is present, the violent explosion will be followed by fire. b. Air, at ordinary atmospheric temperature, can absorb as much as 28 percent gasoline vapor. Gasoline vapors are three to five times heavier than air, and when released, will tend to sink to the lowest level of a compartment. Liquid gasoline will expand 0.7 percent for each ten-degree increase in temperature. 10.3 PERSONNEL HAZARDS. Gasoline and gasoline vapors are extremely toxic; breathing air that is rich in gasoline vapor can and has caused unconsciousness and in some cases death. Gasoline vapors, even in concentrations of less than 1.0 percent, may cause nausea and headaches if inhaled for any length of time. Strong concentrations of gasoline vapors produce an excited state leading to unconsciousness. Gasoline saturated clothing will cause irritation and severe burns to the skin and will ignite if exposed to a source of ignition. Gasoline splashed in the eyes can cause blindness. Severe physical and mental complications may result from inhalation or body absorption. Ship’s personnel must be instructed in the characteristics of MOGAS and the necessary precautions to prevent personnel injury by exposure to MOGAS or its vapor. 10.4 STORAGE AND HANDLING. 10.4.1 Drum and Bladders Conditions.

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 3 07 Nov 2023 VI-41-1 VOLUME VI CHAPTER 41 MAINTENANCE AND PROJECT TEAM REFERENCES. (a) NAVSEA SL720-AA-MAN-030 - Navy Mode rnization Process Management and Operations Manual (NMP-MOM) LISTING OF APPENDICES. A Sample Supervising Authority Report of Availability Lessons Learned 41.1 PURPOSE. The purpose of this chapter is to define and establish the membership and responsibilities of the Maintenance Team and Project Team (PT) and those supplemental members of both that support the maintenance and modernization process. The Maintenance Team, PT and those that supplement under the Planning Process are integral members of a complex evolution that requires communication, coordination and collaboration in order to accomplish availability planning, execution and close out efficiently and effectively. The contents of this chapter complement Volume II, Part II, Chapter 1, Volume VI, Chapter 31, Volume VI, Chapter 33, and Volume VII, Chapter 7 of this manual. 41.2 MAINTENANCE TEAM. Each ship must have a formally structured Maintenance Team. The team is led by the Ashore Ship Maintenance Manager and consists of representatives from the ship and the supporting shore maintenance infrastructure. The responsibility of the Maintenance Team is to manage the advanced planning and planning of maintenance, the routine maintenance of the ship and modernization following the maintenance policies, directives and business rules of the Fleet Commander, Type Commander (TYCOM) and the Naval Supervisory Authority (NSA). 41.2.1 Crew Swap. When a crew swap occurs that rotates a different crew to a hull, the non- crew members of the Maintenance Team must remain with the hull and provide continuity in planning and execution. 41.2.2 Maintenance Team Members. While there are many who contribute to the planning of ship maintenance and modernization, some key personnel have a continuing involvement in and responsibility for management of the overall advanced planning and planning of the ship’s maintenance and modernization. The Maintenance Team forms the core of the PT. The Maintenance Team must be permanently assigned to the ship and must consist of the following members: a. Ashore Ship Maintenance Manager. Va lidates, screens and brokers all maintenance and modernization, including assessments, requiring off ship assistance. Ensures the Project Manager (PM) has visibility of all assigned work. For all combat systems related maintenance and modernization the Ashore Ship’s Maintenance Manager will coordinate with the Combat Systems Port Engineer. Assignments are: (1) Surface Force Port Engineer (2) Naval Air Force TYCOM Maintenance Program Manager

CHAPTER 41

p. 1111

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 3 07 Nov 2023 VI-41-2 (3) Submarine Force Maintenance Coordinator b. Ship’s Commanding Officer. Primary repr esentative for the ship. (The Commanding Officer may delegate to a representative.) c. I-Level Ship Superintendent. Manages Regional Maintenance Center (RMC) or Fleet Maintenance Activity (FMA) Government production work for Continuous Maintenance (CM), Continuous Maintenance Availability (CMAV) and Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) availabilities. Manages I-Level production work planning, integration, execution and close out, reporting progress and status to the Project Manager and Ashore Ship’s Maintenance Manager. d. Project Manager. NSA support to the Ashore Ship’s Maintenance Manager in the advanced planning and close out phases of the maintenance availability (not applicable for Submarine Fleet Availabilities). e. Ship Material Maintenance Officer. C oordinates Maintenance Team activities with Ship’s Force personnel. Assignments are: (1) Surface Force Ship Mate rial Maintenance Officer (2) Naval Air Force Ship Maintenance Manager* (3) Submarine Force 3M Coordinator * The Reactor Maintenance Officer fills this role for Nuclear Propulsion issues. f. Contractor Program Manager (when requi red). Manages authorized contractor or company work. Assignments are: (1) Surface Force Prime Contractor Program Manager (2) Naval Air Force Prime Contract or for RMC contracted (non-Naval Shipyard (NSY)) work (3) Submarine Force Prime Contract or for RMC contracted (non-NSY) work g. Maintenance Support Team (LCS class ships only). h. Combat Systems Ashore Ship’s Maintenan ce Manager. Coordinates with the Ashore Ship’s Maintenance Manager to ensure that combat systems-related maintenance and modernization are scheduled and completed (for Surface Ships only). 41.2.3 The Principal Roles of the Maintenance Team. a. Management of Ship Maintenance. The Maintenance Team ensures the ship’s Current Ship’s Maintenance Project (CSMP) and Availability Work Package (AWP) are validated and accurately reflect the ship’s material condition and current maintenance status. The Maintenance Team ensures there is an initial cost estimate in man-days and material dollars for all work candidates, including assessments and technical assistance. The estimates must be developed by the Ashore Ship’s Maintenance Manager during initial review of the work candidates to be as accurate as possible, based on available information such as return costs from similar jobs, Ashore Ship Maintenance Manager experience, NSA and other government prepared or approved

p. 1112

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 3 07 Nov 2023 VI-41-3 estimates. These estimates must be updated within the CSMP, as they are refined in order to provide the Maintenance Team with adequate data to plan maintenance actions. For Aircraft Carriers, these estimates will be entered in the Proposed AWP and finalized in the Authorized AWP. The Maintenance Team coordinates inspections, certifications, assessments and assist visits in support of the class maintenance plan. Additionally, the Maintenance Team may provide on-scene assessment of equipment condition to develop valid and accurate work candidates. b. Budgeting for Ship Maintenance. The Ashore Ship’s Maintenance Manager is responsible for the ship’s Maintenance and Modernization Business Plan (MMBP). The Maintenance Team develops the budget recommendation for funding maintenance requirements for the fiscal year. The Maintenance Team assesses the ship’s anticipated material condition for budget consideration including the validated CSMP, Class Maintenance Plan, planned fleet alterations, outstanding Departures From Specification (DFS), Temporary Standing Orders and Casualty Reports. This MMBP must address the funding required for execution year maintenance. Ashore Ship’s Maintenance Manager and the Maintenance Team members will maintain their ship within the fiscal guidance defined by the approved MMBP. Chapter 33 of this volume describes the development and maintenance of the MMBP. c. Logistics and Technical Expertise. The Maintenance Team members maintain a current, valid CSMP and AWP that serve as the authoritative source for all information on maintenance requirements. All technical guidance and advice provided by the members of the Maintenance Team must be in compliance with Systems Command approved technical guidance and policy. In instances where action by a Technical Authority is needed, the Project Manager must ensure this authorization is obtained. The effective logistics support for maintenance depends on the accuracy of the ship’s configuration records. The Maintenance Team oversees prompt submission of change documentation pursuant to maintenance or modernization, validates change entries and ensures configuration records (e.g., Configuration Data Managers Database - Open Architecture) are updated. d. Availability Coordination. The Ashore Ship’s Maintenance Manager works for the TYCOM to develop, plan and coordinate scheduled availabilities, CM opportunities and emergent repairs of assigned ships within the resources provided. The Ashore Ship’s Maintenance Manager must enter CNO availabilities, assessments, associated routine tasks and authorized Fleet and Programmed Alterations into the appropriate Maintenance Automated Information System following standard availability planning milestones. The Maintenance Team serves as the point of contact for the NSA or Lead Maintenance Activity (LMA) in coordinating maintenance and planning activities. The Maintenance Team facilitates the orderly conduct of work candidate identification, validation, screening and brokering. NOTE: RESPONSIBILITIES FOR EACH MEMBER HAVE BEEN BROKEN DOWN INTO TWO CATEGORIES, ACCOUNTABLE AND RESPONSIBLE. e. Accountable: Owns the work, the person who makes the final decision on a task and has the ultimate ownership over that task. f. Responsible: A contributor, this will be the person or people assigned to do the work.

Rather the meeting can be used to report the results of detailed reviews, updates, problem investigations and analyses conducted by assigned teams outside of the Planning Board for Maintenance meeting. 41.6 WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM (RMC ONLY). a. The Work Force Development (WFD) Program is designed as a vehicle for professionalizing the Surface Force Ship workforce. That objective is accomplished through a formal training and certification process that is robust, standardized and repeatable at each RMC. The intent is to support the professional growth of RMC maintenance community personnel and promote career progression opportunities that enhance the long-term prospects for individual work force members, while maximizing overall effectiveness of the maintenance community as a whole. The net result of the WFD Program is a capability that maintenance and modernization work performed at one RMC is both repeatable and standardized with identical maintenance and modernization work performed at any other RMC. b. CNRMC serves as the WFD Program sponsor. CNRMC also serves as the Curriculum Control Authority for all WFD training courses and curricula. Each WFD course is delivered via a training team and WFD training covers the vital skills necessary to execute quality Surface Force Ship maintenance and modernization work. c. The WFD Program is a requirement for th e Surface Force ship contracted maintenance management workforce (except at SRF-JRMC). d. All WFD Program courses include co mprehensive classroom training, position- specific case studies and practical exercises, and a detailed Job Qualification Requirement (JQR). While JQRs for a given position may be accomplished outside of the associated formal WFD course (i.e., either before or after completing the course), final certification of each course graduate is not granted by CNRMC until each JQR task is completed. 41.7 INTEGRATED PROJECT TEAM DEVELOPMENT (Surface Force Ships only). 41.7.1 Project Team. IPTD provides Project Teams (PT) with a foundation for the successful execution of a CNO Availability. IPTD events improve the functional performance of the Availability PT by ensuring roles and responsibilities of each PT member are known and

p. 1142

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 3 07 Nov 2023 VI-41-33 understood, enhancing communication skills, team building (promoting relationships) between involved organizations, and developing executable project plans. IPTD is a forum for building relationships among the Surface Team One community. Each event builds a positive team dynamic by creating an environment for approaching and resolving challenges as a team and ultimately improving the availability execution process. Additionally, the events provide a venue for identifying and mitigating availability risks, as well as establishing and tracking progress to availability execution planning milestones. a. The IPTD curriculum focuses on development and integration of the PT; development of availability expectations and success criteria; advance planning; development, reviewing, refining, validating and communicating key strategies; aligning all members of the integrated PT; process improvement; availability execution processes; and knowledge sharing. IPTD events develop Availability expectations, success criteria, build and validate strategies, and align members of the integrated PT. Events raise awareness of the Maintenance and Modernization End-to-End policies and processes. b. Each IPTD event is tailored to meet the sp ecific needs of the PT and is instrumental in transitioning the independent focus of the maintenance team into the integrated focus of the PT. IPTD personnel facilitate discussions on milestones to increase the probability of successful availabilities while clearly identifying those persons/entities responsible for deliverables throughout each phase of the availability. 41.7.2 Program Events. The IPTD program is notionally conducted in six events prior to the availability start date and one post-availability. FDNF ships will utilize a modified schedule based on their unique milestones. IPTD events are: a. Initial Event. Transiti on ownership and responsibility for the final development of the AWP from the Advanced Planning Phase (SEA 21 - Surface Maintenance Engineering Planning Program (SURFMEPP) responsibility), to the Planning Phase (CNRMC - NSA or RMC responsibility). Review planning milestones and draft execution key events and milestones. Review, update and identify risks. b. Pre-Lock Event. Focus on finalizing work package development prior to 100% D- Level lock. Review modernization plan, TYCOM work package, and planning status. Develop draft Planning Event Readiness List. Review, update, and identify risks. c. WPIC Event. The primary purpose of th is event is to conduct the WPIC. Review approved modernization plan, TYCOM work package, and planning status. Review, update and finalize Planning Event Readiness List. Review, update, and identify risks. d. Supplemental Event. At the discretion of the RMC project manager, supplemental event(s) can be scheduled as the need arises. e. Post Award Event. This event integrat es the LMA. Review critical path work, controlling work, tank sequencing or stability, 20% open and inspect plan, and execution risks. Identify, discuss, and document lessons learned and best practices. Develop plan for conducting RTS/WPER event and follow-on Schedule Model Review.

To maintain units in a material condition that supports the required degree of operational readiness and the ability to accomplish assigned missions using a process designed to assess the right things at the right time with the right people using the right standards at the right cost. This process applies to all activities (e.g., Type Commanders (TYCOM), Regional Maintenance Centers (RMC), shipyards, System Commands, etc.) executing periodic material assessments (scheduled event) and focused system assessments (not a scheduled event) of key systems, equipment and programs that follow an established framework and methodology. When evaluating material condition, either partially or in its entirety, the material assessment Common Assessment Procedures or approved technical documentation, must be used and the results properly documented per this chapter via Automated Work Notifications (2-Kilo) to include material assessment tasks, (e.g., Condition-Directed Maintenance Tasks from the Class Maintenance Plan) and any discrepancies. The desired outcome of the assessment process is identification and documentation of required work to maintain adequate material condition. Appendix A provides an outline of the Assessment Process. In addition, this process applies and must be followed for the material evaluation piece of inspections, certifications, and visits (e.g., Board of Inspection and Survey (INSURV), Afloat Training Group, Safety Center, etc.) as defined here: a. Assessment: A material assessment is part of the ship’s Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) plan conducted by Unit personnel or by an external agent (e.g., Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Combat Systems Readiness Assessment (C5RA) and Total Ship Readiness Assessment (TSRA)). Depending on the context, material assessments may be individual “tasks” or “events” that group together numerous individual material assessment tasks for accomplishment during a

CHAPTER 42

p. 1148

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 3 07 Nov 2023 VI-42-2 period of time in the ship’s operational schedule. Discrepancy documentation will be per this chapter. b. Certification: A certification is regulato ry and is required at some periodicity to authorize operation of equipment or systems (e.g., Flight Deck Certification, Aircraft Launch and Recovery, Magazine Certification). Often, continued certification requires that some material assessments be accomplished or have been accomplished prior to certification. Results of a certification and their distribution will be following the associated certification’s instruction. c. Inspection: An inspection is an eval uation conducted by an internal or external activity with regards to the performance of equipment, systems, programs or functions to a recognized standard (e.g., Diesel, Boiler, INSURV, 3-M). Depending on the evaluation plan, this may involve judging the material condition of equipment or systems. Results of an inspection and their distribution will be following the associated inspection’s instruction. Generally, results of the inspection will be provided to the unit’s superior or higher authority. d. Visit: A visit is the response to a re quest to provide technical assistance (e.g., NAVSAFECEN Visit). The technical assistance visit may or may not involve performing a material assessment. Required reports and their distribution from visits will be following the technical representative’s organization’s standard operating procedures. e. Reliability Centered Maintenance: A methodology to develop or revise a maintenance approach with the objective of maintaining the inherent reliability of the system or equipment, recognizing that changes in inherent reliability may be achieved only through design changes. f. Common Assessment Procedures: Comm on assessment procedures are assessments that, to the maximum extent possible, are common across platforms and serve all users for assessments, inspections and certifications. Common assessment procedures are RCM applicable and effective maintenance procedures that can be properly and consistently executed. They deliver accurate assessment and measurement of, determine and document discrepancies to, and specify repairs required to restore satisfactory material condition. Common assessment procedures satisfy the needs of work definition, inspections and certifications in a common document used both across ship classes and by all activities. The two types of commonality invoked are common across functional use and common across platforms with similar systems and equipment. 42.2 APPLICABILITY. This policy applies to all material condition assessments conducted on surface force ships, submarines, aircraft carriers, service craft and afloat or ashore activities under the cognizance of United States Fleet Forces Command and Commander, Pacific Fleet (e.g., Pre-Availability Testing, Point of Entry Testing, Common Assessment Procedures, TSRA, C5RA, Boiler Inspection, Diesel Inspection, etc.). This policy does not apply to the following special categories: a. Reactor and Primary support syst ems under Naval Sea Systems Command 08 cognizance.

p. 1149

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 3 07 Nov 2023 VI-42-3 b. Fleet Ballistic Missile systems under th e cognizance of Director, Strategic Systems Program. c. Naval aircraft and avionics equipment. d. Post repair testing (e.g., hydrostatic test, Non-Destructive Testing, etc.). e. Operational examinations (e.g., Tacti cal Readiness Examination, Pre-Overseas Movement certification, etc.). 42.3 OBJECTIVES. The principal objectives are: a. Identify and document system or equipment deficiencies. b. Improve unit’s material readiness at the equipment or systems level. c. Identify and define work for upcoming maintenance availabilities. d. Standardize how the fleet c onducts material assessments. (1) Certifications, inspections and visits tasks must use common assessment procedure standards and criteria in judging material condition. (2) Assessments use standardized detailed procedures to determine material condition. e. Identify material assessment training de ficiencies and document any deficiencies using a Work Notification (2-Kilo). Conduct over-the-shoulder training for unit personnel. f. Identify deficiencies with the Cl ass Maintenance Plan (CMP) and document deficiencies using a Work Notification (2-Kilo). g. Identify deficiencies with configurati on or configuration data using Maintenance Figure Of Merit (MFOM) or Mission Readiness Assessment System. 42.4 PRINCIPLES. The critical success factors for a single integrated, effective material assessment process are: a. Assessment procedures produced using a common assessment procedure development process based on RCM principles as discussed in reference (a). b. Assessment procedures standardized to th e maximum extent possible and identified in the CMP. c. A standardized assessment tool set used to plan, execute and report assessments. d. Assessment results recorded in a common shared data warehouse. e. Accomplished using a comm on material assessment process, as defined in paragraph 42.5.2 of this chapter. f. Assessment process has an effective me thod of feedback for periodic reviews and analysis for improvements. 42.5 MATERIAL ASSESSMENT PROCESS. 42.5.1 Discussion. The primary focus of the material assessment process is to coordinate and integrate the various Navy material assessment processes into a single, integrated, effective process designed to evaluate, measure and report individual unit’s material condition. This

p. 1150

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 3 07 Nov 2023 VI-42-4 information will be used to improve fleet readiness, ship design, maintenance and modernization identification, as well as the self-assessment capabilities of fleet units. Activities performing assessments are encouraged to communicate with each other to avoid duplicate work. Additionally, the assessment process will provide data to help determine a unit’s ability to reach its expected hull life, measure the effectiveness of the CMP and identify potential crew training deficiencies. (Submarines only) References (b) and (c) are applicable to all performing submarine material and maintainability readiness assessments. 42.5.2 Material Assessments. Units will undergo assessments per the CMP and as scheduled by the TYCOM. Systems and equipment are selected for assessment based upon: a. The CMPs. b. Ship Class trends. c. Unit requests. d. Review of the Current Ship's Maintenance Project (CSMP). e. Maintenance Team inputs. f. Integrated Condition Assessment Systems (ICAS) g. Integrated Performance Assessment Reports h. Corrosion Control Information Management Systems i. Master Assessment Index 42.5.2.1 Submarine TSRA Material Assessments. Reference (b) is applicable to TYCOM managed activities with responsibility to perform submarine material and maintainability readiness assessments. Reference (c) is applicable to Commander, Navy RMC managed activities with responsibility to perform submarine material and maintainability readiness assessments. 42.5.2.2 Surface Force TSRA Material Assessments. TSRA visits are nominally two weeks in duration. However, at the discretion of the TYCOM, TSRA events may be scheduled for more or less than two weeks in order to avoid conflicting with operational schedules. When the TSRA event is scheduled for less than two weeks, the focus of the TSRA will be identification and documentation of systems deficiencies. 42.5.3 Assessment Authorizing. The Platform Program Manager develops the CMP requirements as outlined in reference (d), and provides the requirements to the Platform TYCOM, who develop the assessment work packages and initiate assessments via “go assess work notifications” (GA2-K). Many factors determine what items will be selected for assessment, including the level of risk, funding constraints, ship’s availability and ongoing maintenance and modernization. RMCs are tasked by Commander, Naval Sea Systems Command to support surface ships under the cognizance of Commander, Naval Surface Force Atlantic and Commander, Naval Surface Force Pacific to plan and execute TSRAs. a. The CMP contains two types of assessm ent notifications that may influence the agenda: (1) Scheduled assessments.

p. 1151

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 3 07 Nov 2023 VI-42-5 (2) Unscheduled “As needed” or “pulled assessments” (“Go Assess” maintenance notification). The Go Assess maintenance notification (GA2-K) identifies the equipment and the associated assessment procedure which must be used. b. Individual material assessments (not more than five assessment procedures) may be scheduled outside of a scheduled assessment event or availability if they can be planned and coordinated on a not to interfere basis with the unit’s combined schedule (operational and maintenance). A larger number of assessments or assessment events require additional planning, integrated scheduling and project management (e.g., C5RA, TSRA, Carrier Material Assessment Team, etc.). In this case, a maintenance availability should be used or added to the ship’s schedule. These assessment notifications are screened and brokered to the appropriate executing activity. c. All material assessments are scheduled per the CMP and should not be repeated or duplicated by multiple activities. Assessment results must be shared and used by multiple activities. d. Surface Force TSRAs will include compre hensive assessments of ship’s Hull, Mechanical and Electrical, combat systems, Command, Control, Communications, Computers and Intelligence systems, support equipment and logistics condition per reference (e). TSRAs are tailored material assessment packages scheduled to occur at specific times during a ship’s schedule to improve maintenance availability planning, CSMP management, equipment repair, Ship’s Force technician proficiency and operational availability. The Master Assessment Index process is used by Surface TYCOM as a risk prioritization model to assist in the development of the TSRA agenda. 42.5.4 Assessment Planning. For scheduled material assessments or events, the Executing Activity identifies a Team Leader and develops the execution plan. The plan contains all of the necessary information required to complete the assigned tasks and should be integrated with the unit’s schedule. Conduct assessments using the applicable pieces of the standard assessment tool set. To facilitate planning and scheduling and avoid redundancy, assessments may be consolidated into a material inspection. Deficiencies identified during other major ship inspections and assessments such as C5RAs must be incorporated into the final INSURV inspection report if the assessment was conducted within 60 days of the scheduled material inspection or as negotiated between INSURV and the TYCOM. Although deficiencies generated during the assessment will become part of the final INSURV report, these deficiencies will be annotated as “corrected”, where applicable. The TYCOM will document this linked event by message request to INSURV, cognizant RMCs and the affected unit nominally four months prior to the scheduled material inspection. INSURV will evaluate the request and determine the scope and applicability of the linkage. 42.5.5 Assessment Execution. a. Work with the unit’s personnel to assess, analyze and document the material condition following standard procedures. Maintain good communications with all levels of unit personnel. Train unit personnel in assessment procedures and techniques. b. The assessment includes validation of e quipment configuration, evaluation of the maintenance periodicity and effectiveness, evaluation of the assessment periodicity.

p. 1152

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 3 07 Nov 2023 VI-42-6 c. Documentation of assessment results by the equipment Subject Matter Expert (SME) will include all required data. A maintenance ready work notification (2-Kilo) that is sufficiently defined, contains correct and complete information, provides an accurate diagnosis, and provides an applicable, effective and feasible recommended resolution. A properly validated maintenance ready work notification (2-Kilo) should allow the planning and executing activities the ability to understand the requirement and not to expend additional manpower or time obtaining needed information for any deferred maintenance, and completion of the assessment maintenance notification. All Unclassified Non-Nuclear Naval Propulsion Information or Naval Nuclear Propulsion Information assessment results and data will be handled following current regulations and standing guidance from NAVSEA 08. d. During Surface Force TYCOM TSRA asse ssments, repairs will be accomplished based on priority, availability of parts, Ship’s Force support, SME availability or time remaining in the TSRA. e. Conduct assessments using the Automated Work Notification software contained in Afloat Toolbox for Maintenance. This software is located in the MFOM Suite. All collected data is stored in the MFOM data warehouse. f. Certifications, inspections and visits must document material deficiencies on an Automated Work Notification (2-Kilo) that at a minimum identifies the configuration item and adequately describes the symptoms or conditions that are below standards. For example, the 2-Kilo may identify that a specific component does not function properly and requests assistance to troubleshoot or diagnose system discrepancy. If the deficiency is clearly understood, the assessor is required to record what they know or understand the deficiency to be. 42.5.6 Assessment Reporting. a. The Executing Activity conducting the asse ssment should analyze assessment results and notify the Commanding Officer or his designated representative of any findings that could result in a Casualty Report, underway limiting or Repair Before Operate condition. The System Command (NAVSEA 05, NAVWAR 05 or NAVAIR) must identify material improvement recommendations for new construction, future alterations or further analysis by the technical community. b. For Surface Force Ships, RMC must se nd a Prerequisite and Test Requirements message per reference (e) at least five weeks prior to the start of the event. c. For Surface Force Ships, the ship must send a Readiness to Commence message per reference (e) no later than five days prior to the scheduled event. d. Report assessment results using the standard assessment tool set: (1) To include whether an assigned asse ssment procedure was completed, partially completed or not accomplished. (2) To produce a maintenance ready work notifications (2-Kilo) for each discrepancy identified during the assessment. Determine with unit personnel their repair capability or capacity when recommending level of effort, (i.e., Organizational, Intermediate or Depot repair).

To provide any procedure discrepanc ies, validation and periodicity feedback. g. To document man-hours and costs. h. For Surface Force Ships, RMC must send a TSRA Completion message per reference (e) no later than five business days after TSRA completion. 42.5.7 Standard Assessment Tool Kit. The standard assessment tool kit consists of: a. The catalog of approved assessments outlined in the ship’s CMP. The procedure should be written in a format appropriate to the activity and experience of the personnel assessing (i.e., Maintenance Requirement Card for Unit personnel, Task Group Instruction for Naval shipyards, standard item for private shipyards, etc.). b. If an equipment or system assessment does not exist, one must be developed following the assessment technical guide and identified in the CMP. c. All assessments must be planned, ex ecuted and reported using the Fleet approved assessment computer application(s) and the results recorded in the Fleet designated data warehouse. 42.5.8 Assessment Personnel. a. When assessments are conducted by the uni t’s personnel, they should be from a rating associated with the equipment being assessed (operationally knowledgeable) and should be experienced in conducting assessments. b. Outside activity personnel should be t echnically knowledgeable in the area they will be assessing and considered SMEs. Additionally, they should be trained on the assessment process, how to document the material condition of the equipment or system and basic RCM principles as discussed in reference (a). 42.6 RESPONSIBILITIES. 42.6.1 Fleet Commander. Fleet Commander must: a. Maintain a common material assessme nt process and policy. Conduct periodic reviews of processes and procedures as recommended by TYCOMs and technical warrant holders. b. Be the Fleet’s advocate and single point of c ontact for all material assessment issues to include: (1) Policy. (2) Training, assessment criteria. (3) Procedures. c.

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 3 07 Nov 2023 VI-42A-1 APPENDIX A APPENDIX A ASSESSMENT PROCESS 1. Assessment Background, Scope, and Or ganizational Responsibilities. a. The Fleet Material Assessment Process provides comprehensive testing of equipment or system(s) to determine their current state of material readiness. The resultant data assists maintenance efforts to attain a high state of overall material readiness. b. This document provides supplemental info rmation to assist in the execution of a material condition assessment. This material assessment process does supersede or supplant other instructions or notices covering material assessment. c. An SME may elect to conduct a material assessment procedure for the purposes of troubleshooting equipment or system(s) as part of a Fleet Technical Assistance. d. Job Sequence Numbers will be assigned per Appendix E. e. Only material assessment procedures curre ntly identified in the CMP must be used. If a material assessment is not in the CMP, the executing activity must process a Departure From Specification through the appropriate TYCOM and technical authority before it can be scheduled and performed. f. A material assessment is part of the ship’s RCM plan conducted by Unit personnel or by an external agent (e.g., C5RA or TSRA). Depending on the context, material assessments may be individual “tasks” or “events” that group together numerous individual material assessment tasks for accomplishment during a period of time in the ship’s operational schedule. 2. Individual Material Assessment. a. Scheduling and Preparing for an Individual Material Assessment. (1) The term “Unit” applies to Ship’s Force and shore personnel being assessed. (2) Due to the simple nature of this t ype of assessment, requests will normally be accomplished through a Go Assess Maintenance Notification (GA2-K). The assessment may be requested by a unit’s TYCOM, unit’s Immediate Superior in Command (ISIC), Maintenance Team or by the unit itself. (3) Once the assessment is scheduled, the SME assigned should ensure there will be proper support for performing the material assessment (e.g., tag-out, equipment operation, initial system conditions, material history, properly calibrated test equipment). (4) If an assessment was scheduled mo re than two weeks in advance, the SME should make a courtesy phone call or send an e-mail message as appropriate to ensure schedule changes have not occurred. b. Conducting the Individual Material Assessment. (1) Each Individual Material Assessment will have an in brief with the Commanding Officer or his designee. The in brief will include an agenda of the assessment, what procedures will be used to assess the equipment or

p. 1158

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 3 07 Nov 2023 VI-42A-2 APPENDIX A system(s) and unit specific safety policies. Daily briefs will occur, as appropriate. (2) Upon the completion of the in brief, the SME(s) will team with the unit’s point of contact to begin the assessment. Benefits of this teaming arrangement include training of personnel and meeting all safety requirements. Training is part of the material assessment and unit personnel should be present during the assessment. (3) In the event the assessment discloses significant equipment or system failure(s) that prevents completion of the assessment, the SME must notify the Commanding Officer or his designee and coordinate repairs if appropriate. c. Completing the Individual Material Assessment. (1) All material discrepancies will be documented on a maintenance notification (2-Kilo) and uploaded to the CSMP. The goal is to provide an uploadable file (bulkload) of all final discrepancies upon completion of the assessment but no later than five working days. (2) The SME must provide the Commanding Officer or his designee with an out brief. If requested by the unit, a formal final report of the assessment will be provided no more than 30 days after the conclusion of the individual assessment. 3. Assessment Availabilities. a. Five or more concurrently schedu led assessments require additional planning, integrated scheduling and project management. b. Preparing the assessment. (1) The size and complexity of an assessme nt availability generally requires that it be scheduled as part of a maintenance availability or an individual event. All material discrepancies will be documented on a maintenance notification (2- Kilo) and uploaded to the CSMP. The goal is to provide an uploadable file (bulkload) of all final discrepancies upon completion of the assessment but no later than five working days. (2) The unit should prepare and releas e the Readiness to Commence message no later than five working days prior to commencement of the assessment, if required by the TYCOM. Appendix C provides a sample format. (3) The person designated to manage the Assessment Availability is referred to as the Team Leader or Assessment Director and his duties are: (a) Prepare and release the Prerequi sites and Test Requirements message four weeks prior to the start of the assessment. Appendix B provides a sample format. (b) Arrange for adequate workspace and computer or network support. (c) Ensure all members of the team are on the unit’s access list.

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D 16 Oct 2019 VI-43-1 VOLUME VI CHAPTER 43 GUIDANCE FOR ENHANCED MODERNIZATION AND ALTERATION INSTALLATION TEAM INTEGRATION DURING AVAILABILITIES REFERENCES. (a) NAVSEA SL720-AA-MAN-030 - Navy Mode rnization Process Management and Operations Manual 43.1 CONCEPT. a. Scope. This policy applies to all mo dernization work (Ship’s Force, shipyard, Intermediate Maintenance Activity and Alteration Installation Team) conducted during all types of Availabilities (Chief of Naval Operations, Continuous Maintenance Availability, Fleet Maintenance Availability, etc.) on all platforms. This chapter compliments the support policy of the Fleet Modernization Program as described in Chapter 3 and Chapter 36 of this volume. b. Overview. Ship availab ility duration must be limited to only that required to accomplish planned repairs and alterations. Unnecessary time in depot maintenance periods reduces the time when ships are operationally available to support the Fleet Response Plan. Accordingly, scheduling of production and test activity for all work must be optimized to keep availability schedule duration to a minimum. The key to duration optimization is rigorous, inclusive and detailed integrated planning, which encompasses all anticipated work into a balanced schedule. Once an integrated and executable schedule is established and agreed to by all participating activities, the Naval Supervisory Authority (NSA) must be responsible and have the authority to manage the execution of the modernization through its completion. c. This chapter provides planning and ex ecution requirements for all modernization activities participating in an availability. Disconnected or diffused planning and execution creates local delays and disruption to the overall availability effort, creates additional coordination challenges for NSAs and Ship’s Force, and results in excessive availability durations and higher secondary costs. d. Essential to establishing an integrated a nd executable schedule is a stable and properly funded repair and modernization work package. Type Commanders and Program Managers must structure, plan and program repairs and installations with an understanding that they will be executed not in isolation, but as part of a larger, integrated effort with competing constraints and requirements. Accordingly, repair candidates and alterations not authorized at the Work Package Integration Conference (WPIC) will not be included in the integrated schedule, and will only be authorized after the WPIC when the NSA has advised the customer of the cost and schedule impact associated with a proposed late work addition. NOTE: FOR SURFACE FORCE SHIPS SUSTAINMENT, TYPE 1 AND 2 ALTERATIONS (TERMED “INTERNAL EQUIPMENT ALTERATIONS”)

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D 16 Oct 2019 VI-43-2 MAY BE INCORPORATED INTO THE PACKAGE UP TO THE 100 PERCENT LOCK. 43.2 AVAILABILITY PLANNING BUSINESS RULES. a. The NSA or Lead Maintenance Activity (LMA) has overall responsibility for the availability and possesses the authority to organize, structure and coordinate availability execution matters. All other participants must support the NSA or LMA in this regard. Accordingly, it is paramount that the NSA or LMA balance the needs of all participants and customers in the availability. b. All participating activities must provide a ll availability requirements (specifications, Automated Work Requests, major Planned Maintenance System and Ship’s Force projects, approved installation drawings, schedule needs, system and compartment release dates, industrial support requirements, etc.) to the NSA or LMA as specified by other applicable milestones in this manual. Technical Points of Contact (TPOC) for each repair or installation activity must also be provided to the NSA or LMA to assist with integrated planning questions. These TPOCs must also be present during the execution of the availability and have authority to represent their organization’s interest in matters relating to their repair or installation. For Aegis ships, all Combat System upgrade packages must be assembled, scheduled and integrated by the Aegis Combat System Project Engineer and submitted to the NSA or LMA as a package via the SEA21 Hull Manager. (1) Alteration Installation Teams must provide requirements per reference (a). (2) The LMA must develop an inclusive, detailed, integrated and resource-loaded schedule of all participating activities. All participants must meet and review the proposed plan and make necessary adjustments to render a balanced and optimized integrated schedule. This formal schedule review must occur after the WPIC, but no later than the Work Package Execution Review. The NSA or LMA must serve as the final arbiter of conflicts. By the Work Package Execution Review, all integrated schedule conflicts must be resolved by the NSA or LMA. (3) The LMA must be specifically task ed to accomplish integrated availability planning and execution. For Regional Maintenance Centers, the following related set of specifications achieving end-to-end integration must be invoked in the availability Contract Line Item Number at a lead-time commensurate with the complexity of the work package: (a) “Availability Program Manage ment Alteration Installation Team Integration” Standard Work Template 897-04 (Appendix ___). (b) Combat Systems Light-off or AEGIS Light-off Compartment Release Schedule, SWT 813-01 (Appendix ___), as applicable. (c) Propulsion Plant Light-off Assessmen t Standard Item(s), as applicable. (d) Aegis Light-off NAV SEA Standard Item(s), as applicable.

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D 16 Oct 2019 VI-43-3 NOTE: TASKING MUST ENSURE THE NSA OR LMA CAN PROVIDE INITIAL “SCHEDULE CONFLICT AWARENESS” AT THE WPIC. c. Costs for this integration effort must be prorated amongst the participating customers using existing, standardized proration conventions. 43.3 AVAILABILITY EXECUTION BUSINESS RULES. a. During availability execution, the LMA mu st manage and coordinate the project and recommend resolutions to conflicting issues. The NSA will exercise final arbiter for conflict resolution. b. The LMA must host weekly production pr ogress and work review meetings. All activity participants must ensure their TPOC is present to assist in coordination and conflict resolution. c. LMAs also conduct daily production coor dination meetings. It is recommended that all activity participants and TPOCs attend these on an as-needed basis to assist (in real-time) with coordination and conflict resolution. d. In all availability meetings, commu nications and forums, a forward-looking, anticipatory focus should be applied by all parties to intercept potential problems and resolve them as soon as possible and with least cost and schedule impact.
