The role of the ‘Navy Ashore Vision’

Navy Ashore Vision (NAV)

Through Guiding Principles, NAV 2030 provides a foundation to size and locate ashore infrastructure while capitalizing on innovation and effectiveness to raise Fleet readiness

and reduce costs.

Guiding Principles:

• Impose standards of action

• Integrate regional planning with the Navy’s operational strategy

• „Provide strategic direction while encouraging Regional Commanders entrepreneurial latitude in their operations in support of Fleet Response Plan and Joint Operations

• Guide development of implementation strategies and regional planning

• „Are dynamic and will be validated and updated periodically

NAV 2030 Guiding Principles - The Right Bases

1. Plan for the Future

2. Joint Solutions

3. Base Appearance

4. Proactive Encroachment Protection

5. Retain Critical Military Enablers

6. Optimize development of airfield training opportunities and shore support facilities and capabilities for execution of surge orders

7. Unmanned Vehicle Support

NAV 2030 Guiding Principles - Right Places

1. Disperse Homeports

2. CVN Basing

3. Combat Logistics Bases

4. Optimize Ranges

5. Air Squadron Shore Basing

6. Submarine Basing

7. Enable Voyage Repair

8. Organic Maintenance Activities

9. Navy Presence

10. Training and Education

11. Enable Underwater Capabilities

Waterfront Security Design Guidance

Wharf and Pier Flexibility• Homeported and Visiting Ships – Piers & Wharves/ Nested Ships

• Dedicated vessel wharves vs multi-use berths (efficient and flexible)

• Sustainment and Repair wharves – parallel / cranage / workshops

• Fleet changes incrementally – build wharves and infrastructure in stages where possible, plan for the full loadout

Lessons Learned

• Once in a generation opportunity to align shore infrastructure (50 – 100 years) with capability (30 – 40 years)

• Top down guidance promotes alignment and standardization

• Long term development plans – must be flexible and resilient

• Aligning capability investment by vessel – with base investment to support multiple vessels (in the same way a runway supports multiple airframe types)

• Strategic Asset Management Plan (SAMP) across Naval Establishments to extract maximum value from infrastructure lifecycle

• Take lessons from Commercial Ports (SAMP, Berth Management, Staged Infrastructure Development)
