Book excerpt: To achieve a more responsive and more readily deployable fleet of surface combatants, the Navy adopted the Fleet Response Plan (FRP) in 2003 to replace its traditional ship maintenance and readiness cycle. The goal of the FRP is to have non-deployed ships achieve a high level of readiness earlier and to maintain high readiness longer so that they can deploy on short notice. However, a challenge of implementing the FRP is establishing the processes and procedures, as well as a ready industrial base, to facilitate maintenance planning and execution to meet the now unpredictable FRP surge requirements and maintenance demands. By concentrating specifically on the DDG-51 class of destroyers, the authors of this report look at the effects the FRP has had thus far and determine whether maintenance resources are meeting maintenance demands and whether related industry resources have been coordinated effectively. Overall, the authors determine that the initiative appears to have promising effects but that more time will be needed to assess maintenance supply and demand apart from the increase of funding tied to military operations post-September 11, 2001.

Ships were deployed in forward-presence roles for six months and spent the next 18 month primarily in maintenance and training. A ship would then be ready for another deployment. This approach satisfied the many personnel, presence, maintenance, and mission requirements of the Cold War era; however, new global threats have recently challenged these traditional methods of operation.

FRP is intended to more rapidly prepare & then sustain readiness in ships & squadrons. This new readiness approach will enable its forces to provide engagement in forward areas, as well as surge a greater number of ships on short notice. This goal can be achieved without increasing its operations & maint. budget of $40 billion for each of the next 5 years. But, the Navy had not incorp. a mgmt. approach to guide & assess implementation of FRP, This report examines the extent to which the Navy has: made progress in implementing a sound mgmt. approach for FRP; & evaluated the long-term risks & tradeoffs of FRP-related changes.

Book excerpt: The Navy initiated its Fleet Response Plan (FRP) in March 2003 as a critical enabler to help meet the new demands of the twenty-first century security environment. FRP represents a major change in the way the Navy manages its forces, and is intended to more rapidly prepare and then sustain readiness in ships and squadrons. To achieve the desired capabilities under FRP, the Navy has altered its training, maintenance, and manning practices. The Navy expects this new readiness approach will enable its forces to provide presence and engagement in forward areas, as well as surge a greater number of ships on short notice. The Navy intends to achieve this goal without increasing its operations and maintenance budget of about $40 billion for each of the next 5 years. However, GAO previously reported that the Navy had not fully incorporated a sound management approach to guide and assess implementation of FRP. As a result, GAO was asked to examine the extent to which the Navy has (1) made progress in implementing a sound management approach for FRP and (2) evaluated the long-term risks and tradeoffs of FRP-related changes.
