Nuclear Fleet LDO Inventory versus Billets

Insufficient Inventory Resulting in Gaps Across the Fleet

From 2011-2019, Nuclear Fleet LDO inventory declined while billet requirements grew

Nuclear CWO Inventory continues to decrease to zero in FY27 (Predicted)

Long-term fix applied through increased accessions in FY19, but the shortage will continue for 5-6 years

Current inventory shortage is focused in the LCDR ranks and will roll into the CDR ranks over the next 4-5 years

FY 11 Inventory Delta = +48

FY 20 Inventory Delta =-12*

Nuclear Fleet LDO Manning Snapshot Nuclear Fleet LDO LCDR Manning FY19-26

Mitigating Actions Increased LCDR and CDR AIP from $10K to $20K beginning in FY20 to increase retention beyond 10 YCS

Increased new accessions from 36 to 42 per year beginning in FY19

Simplified the LDO(N) application process to increase selectivity, applications grew 190% from FY18 to FY20

Updated and codified LDO(N) distribution priorities: CVN, Tender/NPTU, PCU, SOC, Shore

Upgraded CRA billet to Spot-promoted LCDR, placing LDO(N) CHENGS on operational CVNs

Working on initiative to create a RX Electrical Technical Assistant (RETA) billet on NIMITZ Class CVNs

LDO(N) community health is improving but will take time to recover
