SWFTS/WSQ-9Modernization Integration Planning and Scheduling Value Stream Analysis 30 March 2007 Cindy Straney (PMS415) Doug Wright (TSLO)
Why We Are Here • Focus on improving installation processes to reduce the total cost of submarine modernization • To minimize / eliminate the risk of schedule extension and associated cost overruns related to the integration of SWFTS / WSQ-9 during CNO Availabilities • Return Ao to the Fleet

EPS SubmarineEnd-to-End Process Map Focus of Lean Event
Team Expectations • Standardized approach to installs • Better coordination between AITs and LMA • Better coordination of SUBSAFE work zones • Integrate the work better amongst AITs • Commitment from upper management to execute the ideas and improvements from Lean activities • Apply outcome to execution schedule/support Lean activities • Gain education on Lean processes and insight to install activities • Identify methods that will reduce SWFTS install costs • Streamlined installs • Gather corporate best practices, share lessons learned, incorporate into an integrated data base
SWFTS/WSQ-9 Key Dependencies / Potential Roadblocks – What (TOP 9) • Knowledgeable, dedicated ship’s force support team • Support Services: (Aux Power, Cranes) • Fouled hatches / unclear load paths • Hot Work / Fire Watches / Fire Containments • Weapons Offload • Cable Rip Out / Dead Cable Removal • SUBSAFE Work • NDT • AIT Coordination

KEY: Affinitized Initiatives and Concerns …
Management Challenge – Measures for Tracking Progress • Reduction of interfaces from event functional process map could reduce cost • AIT Integration • Deck plate / foundation work on BYG-1 (SSN772 target) • Amount of cable pulled in a given space or spaces • Use of PSS like timeline would allow for better tracking of progress
Rapid Improvement Plan (RIP) • MOA Standardization – JDI or RIE ? • LMA/AIT Coordination Process - VSA • Execution Dependencies - VSA • WAF Process / Approval Standardization - RIE • Dedicated Management Team/Ship’s Force - JDI • AIT Funding - VSA • Lean Planning Event (pre-Ao) to identify impact to Execution Phase - VSA
Recommendations • Continued SEA04 and TSUB coordinated effort on Lean initiatives • Commitment from Upper management on Modernization Lean efforts and recommendations from this event • Establish and distribute the timeline for execution / implementation plan for improvement (Team Leader/Lean Team) • Establish a Tracking Team or ESC for the Modernization Value Stream (ST1)
Recommendations … • SHAPEM sponsor a single Modernization Integration Coordinator • Bring deckplate personnel to scheduling meetings to help coordination of work • RMMCO check-in/check-out is too cumbersome. Look at current process for improvement opportunities • Update NAVSEA Instructions & enforce requirements compliance • Need to develop a better approach to integrate HM&E installs and modernization installs during CNO avails
Recommendations … • Establish / implement a plan to address resource constraints and inexperienced workforce • Establish and implement better communication between senior level decision makers and deck plate personnel to develop a better understanding of the complexity associated with modernization installations during CNO avails
Path Forward / Continued Work • Implement Lean RIP • Act on Recommendations • Continue Development of Functional Map • Team to define / agree on steps that occur on all modernization work • Define complexity involved, multiple links, inter-dependencies across links, & the effect of delays if not properly synchronized • Utilize efforts of functional map to feed into follow-on June Planning & Scheduling Lean Event for Modernization & Maintenance • Develop an Integrated Corporate Data Base to share Best Practices & Lessons Learned
