Improved Maintenance, Sustainment, and Training for Unmanned Surface Vessels (USVs)

The Navy is seeking a solution to establish an enduring, self-sufficient operational and sustainment model for its rapidly evolving fleet of Unmanned Surface Vessels (USVs). The goal is to develop a vendor-agnostic sustainment and training framework for multiple USV platforms, enabling Fleet personnel and government support organizations to conduct maintenance and operations with minimal-to-no vendor support. The project will develop, validate, and institutionalize standardized O-level maintenance procedures, capture execution procedures, corrective maintenance support request, distinguish and separate data between/among platforms, a fleet-wide training curriculum and Joint Qualification Requirement (JQR), and agile lifecycle management processes. • The project aims to equip Fleet personnel and government support organizations to conduct maintenance and operations with minimal-to-no vendor support. • The solution should be scalable for the rapid introduction of new platforms. • The goal is to enable long-term, scalable readiness. • The project will develop a fleet-wide training curriculum and Joint Qualification Requirement (JQR). • The solution should distinguish and separate data between/among platforms.
