The Program Executive Industrial Infrastructure (PEO II) and Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC) are organizing a two-part SIOP Industry Day aimed at enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of the SIOP initiative across the Navy's four public shipyards: Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard (PHNS), Puget Sound Naval Shipyard (PSNS), Norfolk Naval Shipyard (NNSY), and Portsmouth Naval Shipyard (PNSY). The objective is to integrate best commercial practices, innovative government approaches, advanced materials, and technologies to improve program cost, schedule, and performance metrics.
Event Overview:
In-Person Pitches (August 13-15, 2024 - Washington, DC):
•Part II will be held in Washington, Aug. 13-15, 2024. This session aims to further expand on the ideas generated in Part I by inviting organizations (e.g., contractors, vendors, professional associations, academic institutions) to present their recommendations directly to a panel of federal government representatives.
•Each presenting organization will have approximately 30 minutes to showcase their proposals, emphasizing concepts not typically utilized in federal procurements, particularly in design, construction, and industrial equipment sectors. Six to eight government representatives will participate in each industry engagement with representatives from a single commercial enterprise. Pitches can be oral, involve a virtual presentation, handouts, etc. at the organization’s discretion.
•We encouraged involvement from non-traditional defense contractors, small businesses, and small disadvantaged businesses to contribute diverse perspectives and solutions
•Participation in the August event will be prioritized based on the quality and innovativeness of ideas submitted by July 2, 2024, due to time and space constraints. The deadline for submissions has passed.
Part I (June 5, 2024):
•Part I of the Industry Day took place on June 5, 2024, focused on stimulating collaboration and generating innovative ideas from industry and academia. The session explored methods to expedite SIOP implementation while achieving lower total ownership costs and enhanced performance compared to conventional government methodologies.
•Topics covered included anticipated projects, their sequencing, and the overall acquisition strategy for SIOP.
