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.

A regularly scheduled meeting between the ship’s Maintenance Team members and stakeholders (e.g., TYCOM, Immediate Superior In Command, planning activity, Ship’s Program Manager, etc.) to discuss ship-wide maintenance issues. This forum provides a routine and regularly scheduled management review of current planned off-ship and organizational maintenance, CSMP and AWP quality and accuracy, future maintenance and modernization planning, work prioritization, work integration and fiscal concerns. The objective is to ensure clarity of intent for both the ship’s efforts and the shore infrastructure with respect to total ship maintenance, operational schedules and other concerns affecting ship material readiness. While the frequency of Planning Board for Maintenance meetings may vary due to a ship’s schedule, a minimum of one meeting per quarter is expected. The Planning Board for Maintenance is the forum for discussing all maintenance issues, including metrics that are currently used to measure the maintenance effectiveness of the ship and the performance of the ship’s assigned Maintenance Team. Each maintenance team will incorporate the following business rules.

The Ashore Ship Maintenance Manager will prepare the agenda and provide it to the Commanding Officer and core team members 48 hours in advance. f. The agenda provides a list of topic areas to be reviewed during the Planning Board for Maintenance. It does not require an exhaustive examination of each topic during the meeting. 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.

COMUSFLTFORCOMINST 4790.3 REV D CHG 3 07 Nov 2023 VI-41-34 f. RTS/WPER Event. The primary purpose of this event is to conduct the WPER. Review LMA integrated production schedule, modernization, I-Level work, and Ships force work list. Discuss first 100-hour plan and execution risks. g. Completion Event. The primary purpose of this event is to conduct a detailed review to include the LMA of the work package executed during the CNO Availability, and identify Lessons Learned that can be utilized for revising work items and class standard work templates for future maintenance availabilities. A Lessons Learned message from the ship must be sent within 30 days after the Completion Event. A sample message is provided in Appendix A of this chapter. Additionally, this event will serve as the transition (CNRMC - NSA or RMC) back to Advanced Planning (SEA 21 - SURFMEPP) to commence the next cycle in the Fleet Response Plan.

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
