Industry Day: Questions and Answers
During the Industry Day for the Multi-Mission Surface Combatant (MMSC) Professional Mariner (PM) crew, key information was shared regarding various aspects of the project.
The English proficiency of the Royal Saudi Naval Forces (RSNF) crew was discussed, with an expectation that they will reach a basic conversational level after a 2.5-year language school program. The responsibilities of the PM crew in relation to aviation testing, specifically dynamic interface testing with NAVAIR, were outlined. Offerors were advised to manage manning requirements based on USCG guidelines, as the Navy's guidelines are stricter. Additionally, details on shipboard security, operational flexibility, and post-delivery ownership and responsibilities were provided.
The document also addressed logistical aspects such as medical supplies provision, parts and spares responsibility, and berthing arrangements on the ships. The Navy emphasized that the PM crew would be responsible for operating all four ships during the post-delivery period and clarified that consumable medical supplies would need to be provided by the offeror. Furthermore, it was highlighted that parts and spares would be a Navy responsibility, relieving offerors from needing knowledge of the Navy supply system.
The Industry Day Q&A session shed light on various operational and logistical considerations essential for potential offerors to understand before engaging in the MMSC PM crew project.
