The Navy estimates the second ship\u2019s procurement cost at $539.1 million. Much of the difference in procurement cost between the first ship and the second is due to the fact that the procurement cost of the first ship included the detailed design/nonrecurring engineering (DD/NRE) costs for the class. Incorporating most or all of the DD/NRE cost for a class of ship into the procurement cost of the lead ship in the class is a traditional budgeting practice for Navy shipbuilding programs. The estimated unit procurement costs of the third and subsequent ships in the class are similar to that of the second ship.\nThe second ship has already received $73.1 million in advance procurement (AP) funding that was provided in FY2017. The Navy\u2019s proposed FY2018 budget requests the remaining $466 million in funding needed to complete the second ship\u2019s procurement cost.

The Navy anticipates announcing its decision on which yard has been awarded which program during the third quarter of FY2016 (i.e., during the period April-June 2016).\nAs another part of its acquisition strategy for the TAO-205 program, the Navy plans to use a block buy contract to procure the first six ships in the class. The Navy was granted authority for this block buy contract by Section 127 of the FY2016 National Defense Authorization Act (S. 1356/P.L. 114-92 of November 25, 2015). The Navy estimates that the block buy contract will reduce the procurement cost of each TAO-205 by an average of about $45 million, compared to costs under the standard or default DOD approach of annual contracting.\nIssues for Congress for FY2017 regarding the TAO-205 program include the following:\nwhether to approve the Navy\u2019s plan to procure the second TAO-205 class ship in FY2018 (with advance procurement funding in FY2017), or instead accelerate the procurement of the ship to FY2017 (with all, or at least most, of the ship\u2019s procurement cost provided in FY2017);\nwhether to provide additional advance procurement funding for the TAO-205 program in FY2017 to finance economic order quantity (EOQ) purchases (i.e., up-front batch purchases) of components for the first six TAO-205s, so as to further reduce the cost of the six ships; and\nwhether to encourage or direct the Navy to build TAO-205s with more ship self-defense equipment than currently planned by the Navy.", "type": "CRS Report", "typeId": "REPORTS", "active": true, "formats": [ { "format": "HTML", "encoding": "utf-8", "url": "http://www.crs.gov/Reports/R43546", "sha1": "0bf1ec5bbf953a49d0e73fe20004ad70609ed0d5", "filename": "files/20160315_R43546_0bf1ec5bbf953a49d0e73fe20004ad70609ed0d5.html", "images": null }, { "format": "PDF", "encoding": null, "url": "http://www.crs.gov/Reports/pdf/R43546", "sha1": "436883c811b85336460d3444e8779d2b2622a833", "filename": "files/20160315_R43546_436883c811b85336460d3444e8779d2b2622a833.pdf", "images": null } ], "topics": [ { "source": "IBCList", "id": 3148, "name": "Conventional Weapons and Military Equipment" }, { "source": "IBCList", "id": 4531, "name": "Defense Authorization" } ] }, { "source": "University of North Texas Libraries Government Documents Department", "sourceLink": "https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc824442/", "id": "R43546_2016Jan08", "date": "2016-01-08", "retrieved": "2016-04-04T14:48:17", "title": "Navy John Lewis (TAO-205) Class Oiler Shipbuilding Program: Background and Issues for Congress", "summary": "This report provides background information and issues for Congress on the John Lewis (TAO-205) class oiler shipbuilding program, previously known as the TAO(X) program, a program to build a new class of 17 fleet oilers for the Navy.
