Fairness and Transparency in US Navy Ship Repair Contracts
This act aims to enhance fairness and transparency in the US Navy's ship repair contracting processes. It restricts the use of government-operated drydocks, promotes private sector competition, and mandates cost analyses, potentially leading to more efficient use of taxpayer money.
Key points
Limits on Government Drydock Use: The Navy must use private drydocks unless there's insufficient private competition.
Study on Repair Costs: A study will assess if Navy ship repair prices accurately reflect true market value.
Reports on Bidding Policies: The Navy will regularly report to Congress on its bidding policies and government dock usage.
