WORKFORCE CONTINUITY ARCHITECTURE FOR INDUSTRIAL-BASE READINESS

Stabilizing Skilled Labor for Submarine and Shipbuilding Programs

Shipbuilding and sustainment depend on continuity in critical skilled roles. Attrition rates of 20–22%—and 30% in high-demand billets—continue to disrupt production tempo. Schedule delays in prior years highlight the need for a continuity architecture that protects output, delivery, and readiness.

THE OPERATIONAL REALITY

Recruiting and training have expanded the pipeline. Continuity has not kept pace. The result is recurring workforce loss, requalification cycles, and schedule variance across successive production years.
The effects are consistent:

Loss of skilled billets interrupts delivery.
Experience gaps add scheduling and onboarding demand.
Slippage compounds across production cycles.

Continuity has become the limiting factor for throughput and execution.

DISTINCT APPROACH

Aligns workforce continuity with program timelines and service requirements.
Integrates without disruption to existing authority or workflows.
Designed for uninterrupted execution environments.

STRATEGIC ENGAGEMENT

Engagements begin with a continuity and workforce architecture assessment tied to program timelines and critical billets. The objective is to identify where instability introduces risk into production, sustainment, and delivery schedules.

The outcome is a continuity model aligned to program execution requirements.
