The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) is an independent agency that works for Congress. The GAO watches over Congress, and investigates how the federal government spends taxpayers dollars. The Comptroller General of the United States is the leader of the GAO, and is appointed to a 15-year term by the U.S. President. The GAO wants to support Congress, while at the same time doing right by the citizens of the United States. They audit, investigate, perform analyses, issue legal decisions and report anything that the government is doing. This is one of their reports.

Navy repair activities are facing an increased workload at a time when the work force is being reduced. The demand for intermediate ship repairs is also increasing as periods between overhauls are extended. In response to this problem, researchers at the Navy Personnel Research and Development Center analyzed the operation of the intermediate maintenance system at San Diego to determine how productivity could be enhanced within these new requirements and constraints. Researchers used a sociotechnical systems design method to analyze the present system functioning, identify problems and causal factors, generate and choose alternative system designs, and evaluate then on site. The revised design was effective in improving the quality of information input to the repair system and in reducing the number of rejected work requests as well as the time required for planning. The design changes also reduced the time needed to screen work requests, to assign them to repair activities, and to make firm decisions regarding work acceptance. The sociotechnical systems design method is a valuable tool for productivity improvement in this and other military settings. Keywords: Organization design, System performance, Productivity, Shore Intermediate Maintenance Activity(SIMA), Military organizations.

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.
