NAVSEA Tech Authority
Abstract
This project has been established to support the NAVSEA Technical Authority with the coordination of design and development efforts for cross-platform applicability to result in more affordable, mission-capable, and interoperable surface ship forces including ships that are less expensive to build and operate with reduced manning, reduced support costs, and greater utilization of emerging technology. NAVSEA Tech Authority efforts under Project Unit (PU) 3161, known as the Cross Platform Systems Development (CPSD) Program, transition directly to early-stage ship design for Ship Preliminary Design and Feasibility Studies and other Program Executive Office (PEO) ship design programs. While these efforts support concept exploration and mission needs assessment for potential future ship acquisition programs, they also develop cross-program technology solutions and associated Technical Authority products. The CPSD efforts are not direct efforts for specific, authorized shipbuilding programs. This project is the only R&D effort that provides a coordinated, collaborative approach to the development of cross-platform naval ship and weapon system design, as well as engineering capabilities in the areas of design tools, criteria, and methods. The CPSD project also provides innovative solutions for current fleet issues involving Technical Authority, such as interoperability issues with new systems or platforms and/or broad technology insertion topics. In addition, PU 3161 also includes Additive and Advanced Manufacturing Technology, which focuses heavily on naval ship-specific Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology and transition. In FY23, CPSD is re-baselined to improve efficient and resilient alignment to CNO and NAVSEA Chief Engineer (SEA05) technical requirements and priorities. CPSD maintains the use of established functional areas for scope prioritization and portfolio diversification; however, the use of pillars for funding allocation has hindered responsiveness and agility. New in FY23, CPSD established the project focusing on the functional area "Support of Technical Authority." Project Unit 3161 includes efforts of the Additive Manufacturing (AM) program. The AM program focuses on development and use of AM equipment for Naval applications in land-based and afloat applications, including system performance requirements, shipboard integration requirements and considerations, material selection, design optimization, equipment and component certification, and digital engineering integration. Efforts also include considerations of AM applicability across a wide variety of potential applications ensuring AM manufactured components can meet mission requirements. In FY24, Project Unit 3161 also includes the Learning to Action Board (L2AB) Firefighting Program. Following the USS Bonhomme Richard fire, the L2AB Firefighting Program was stood up to research and develop solutions for damage control and firefighting issues identified in a subsequent Major Fires Review. This program funds critical efforts in shipboard fire detection/suppression systems, fire prevention features, and advanced firefighting equipment. Programs that were directed by the Vice Chief of Naval Operations will be tracked to completion.
