1 INLAND NAVIGATION DESIGN CENTER STANDARDIZATION FOR NAVIGATION INFRASTRUCTURE Inland Waterways Users Board Meeting July 19, 2017 The views, opinions and findings contained in this report are those of the authors(s) and should not be construed as an official Department of the Army position, policy or decision, unless so designated by other official documentation.

2 USACE Priority: Standardization of Navigation Infrastructure 2 LTG Semonite issued charge on June 23, 2016 after site visit to Pittsburgh District Standardization of Lock and Dam infrastructure included in Campaign Plan Transform Civil Works Focus on 100-year implementation to save future O&M Develop an Enterprise approach Integrate Asset Management Philosophy

3 Standardization of Navigation Infrastructure Implementation 3 Inland Navigation Design Center will lead and build a joint integrated team Establish a national standardization framework Senior Oversight Group (SOG) will provide a long-term focus Resource base Joint effort by Engineering and Operations Utilization of Subject Matter Expertise Coordination with ERDC R&D

4 Senior Oversight Group 4 INDC Director (Chair) MVD Chief, Business Technical Division MVD Chief, Operations MVD Regional Maintenance PM MVD Navigation Business Line Manager ERDC HQ Technical Director HQ AM Program Manager HQ Structural Engineer HQ Program Manager (Nav) IMTS Program Manager INDC Deputy Director LRD Chief, Business Technical Division LRD Chief, Operations LRD Regional Maintenance PM LRD Navigation Business Line Manager SAD Rep NWD Rep SWD Rep NAD Rep PAO Rep

5 SOG Roles and Responsibilities 5 Advisory body to INDOC Enduring body for the future Assess Life Cycle Management Return on investment Identify high value opportunities Endorse and recommend plans for standardization Scope for technical action teams Monitor progress and metrics Assess products/recommendation/conclusions for implementation Communication across USACE (PAO)

6 Enduring Processes 6 START SOG Focus Area (National Priorities) Knowledge Management, EMs/Policy Next Focus Area TAG Study, SOG Evaluation and Endorsement Rollout New Technology Building Information Modelling FEM/Maximo Remote Sensing Future AM Tools INDC Develops documents for HQ ECB Guidance to Field INDOC Approval (Performance Metrics, ROI)

7 GUIDING PRINCIPLES PLANNING FOR THE NEXT 100 YEARS 7 Enhances navigation system performance Consistency in facility usage for customers Reduce Life-Cycle Costs Improve Sustainability Reduce inventory and storage requirements Optimize components for reliability and ease of replacement Efficient contracting Standardize repair by eliminating site specific designs Reduce training needs Leverage Technology BIM (Building Information Model) Focus R&D efforts

8 Implementation Path 8 Priority Action 2a.1 Delivery Quality Water Resources Solutions and Services 1Q17: Begin standardizing lock and dam designs 4Q18: Implementation plan for standardization of engineering features that would benefit from standardization. 4Q19: Achieve target 50% standardization of lock and dam design. Long-Term Implementation Initiate SOG Standardization Framework & Tools to assess Life-Cycle Cost Reduction Target High Value Opportunities (Miter Gate Systems, Machinery, Controls, Repairs, etc.) System Planning and Implementation (Updated Engineering Guidance, Standardization via new Specifications, Cultural shift, Etc) TIME (Years) 5-100

9 Implementation Considerations (INDC/SOG/INDOC to develop) 9 Determine life-cycle management system Determine most common problems across navigation system How and what to standardize - by river, geographic area, MSC, by component, etc. Determine applications for repair, inspection, evaluation, design, and knowledge management Balance innovation with standardization

10 Ongoing Standardization Efforts 10 Standardize miter gate anchorage inspection, risk analysis and repair guidelines New start Interchangeable bolted components for miter gates on the Upper Mississippi River Locks - In progress Uniform bulkhead slots and bulkheads for the Upper Ohio River In progress Use interchangeable bolted components on upper miter gates for the Illinois Waterway - In progress Sustainability and Standardization study for selected mechanical and electrical components In Progress Interchangeable lock bulkheads on Upper Mississippi River and Illinois Waterway - Completed
