Defense Logistics: Navy Needs to Develop and Implement a Plan to Ensure that Voyage Repairs are Available to Ships Operating Near Guam when Needed

Contributor
Summary
The Navy has not identified voyage ship repair requirements for surface vessels operating near Guam for 2012 and beyond, although some information is available for developing estimated requirements for use in planning. Navy officials stated that they do not have enough information on which to base such an assessment. Nonetheless, while the Navy has plans for an increased ship presence in the Pacific and can generally predict the number and types of vessels likely to operate near Guam for the next 2 years, the Navy has not determined precisely how changes to its force structure for 2012 and beyond will impact ship repair requirements in Guam. Furthermore, the Marine Corps has not finalized its plans for additional vessels at Guam, or for the potential frequency and duration of visits to Guam anticipated for amphibious vessels which are currently home-ported in Japan, but that may be moved to Guam by 2014 to support Marine Corps units being moved there. In addition, MSC expects changes to its force structure operating at or near Guam. Officials stated that the timeline is uncertain for these changes, and thus the timing of future voyage repair requirements remains uncertain. While the Navy, Marine Corps, and Military Sealift Command have not made final force structure decisions or operational plans for vessels operating at or near Guam, information is available to support estimations of ship repair requirements as part of the multiyear planning and budgeting process. Moreover, DOD guidance requires that maintenance programs be clearly linked to strategic and contingency planning. Previous ship repair records and certain other information exists that could support development of at least estimated requirements
