NAVSEA IT

Abstract

The Navy Maritime Maintenance Enterprise Solution (NMMES) is the Information Technology toolset utilized to execute ship and submarine maintenance in the Naval Shipyards (NSY), Regional Maintenance Centers (RMC), Ship Repair Facility (SRF), Intermediate Maintenance Facilities (IMF), and commercial industrial sites worldwide. These maintenance activities support Fleet operations 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. The NMMES IT solution is used by over 40,000 civilians and military who conduct over $6.5B of ships maintenance and modernization on an annual basis. The NMMES program includes sustainment as well as multiple modernization efforts to insure the continued effectiveness of the Fleet maintenance IT toolset. These efforts consists of adding mandatory enhancements, such as Financial Audit Improvement Readiness (FIAR) changes and aligning with the Standard Accounting Budget Reporting System (SABRS) system. The NMMES program provides for software changes, retiring and/or replacing of costly legacy systems, transition planning, and systems engineering for integration with existing and future solutions. These efforts align with direction to insure that proposed interim solutions support and facilitate the transition to the planned, maintenance solution end state. This program will provide modernization, migration, testing, and consolidation of obsolete legacy systems to the next generation of centrally hosted tools supporting Fleet Maintenance systems for the Navy. Increase in funding addresses critical deficiencies and minimizes the inherent risks that a catastrophic systems failure would be to fleet readiness. The increase in funds is required to support the modernizations of products that are on outdated software and to enhance the existing applications to make them cloud capable. It also provides for software enhancements required to make applications Financial Improvement and Audit Readiness (FIAR) compliant and to enable system modifications of financial feeder applications to interface with a FIAR compliant system of record. The requirement to handle 3-D integrated product models being delivered with CVN-78 and Virginia Class are also driving the increase. NAVSEA plans to execute these funds primarily through a current sustainment contract and several separate contracts through existing delivery orders to gain the specialized resources and material necessary to sustain these vital systems until they can be replaced by fully fielding the NMMES Technical Refresh (TR) solution. There is an overlapping period of time where both solutions are operating and requiring sustainment, hence the increase in the requested amounts for current systems and subsequent replacement system(s). An increase to NMMES-TR in FY18 will accomplish the following work increments: 1) the development and implementation of a Work Brokering solution that addresses both public and private yards for planning to be completed in FY20; 2) the architecture, engineering, design and delivery of an Enterprise Services Bus (ESB) network/interfacing to provide for the support and transition from the NMMES solution to the NMMES-TR solution; 3) the planning and preparation for the acquisition, configuration, and deployment of the Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) replacement solution TR increment. An integrated approach of supporting sustainment of current systems and ramping up the Technical Refresh in FY18 reduces risk of development and deployment of critical systems supporting ship maintenance.
