Advancements Seabee vs. Navy Average

•Seabee advancements appear to be driven less by the shape of the billet pyramid than other ratings. For example:

Rating Ratio E7:E8 billets E8 Advance Opp.

BU 3.11 : 1 24.2%

CE 3.13 : 1 21.5%

SW 3.61 : 1 4.7%

EA 4.00 : 1 0.0%

•E9 advancements appear to be driven less by the shape of the billet pyramid than by the number of vacancies each year.

Seabee Rating Sea/Shore Billet Ratios vary widely

• CM, EO, SW are sea intensive– No E5-E8 shore billets to spare– Even some E4 shore billets required for SSR

• BU is more balanced– But has an excess of shore billets at E6-E8

• CE, EA, UT are shore intensive– Excess shore billets at E5-E7 (but not E8)

• Compressed ratings: only CU has an excess of E9 shore billets (in theory)

22

• Claimant CA coding is generally consistent and reasonable• 7 “F” coded billets are questionable military unique skills

– 6 facility maintenance billets at Bay St. Louis– 1 self-help billet at NAS Pax River

• One RDC billet coded as “J” vice “F”• Five billets at 20th SRG coded as “B”, remainder as E/F/J/R• Billet coding for these billets will be reviewed in the FY05

Required for Rotation 128– Retain within current rating– Includes 20 E4-E5 9545 billets that will transfer to MA

Available for transfer 44– 36 E5-E6, 8 E7-E8 billets– RDC, Recruiter, Brig, CAAC, etc.

Candidates for CA “R” 37– 29 E4-E5, 8 E6-E7 billets– Hazmat, Self-Help, MWR, etc.– Most already coded as “R”– Can also be transferred to other Seabee Ratings

Total 209

25

Summary of Proposed Seabee IGCA J / R Coding

• Shore Intensive Ratings:– CE: recode some E6/E7/E8 billets from ‘J’ to ‘R’– EA: recode some E5/E6/E8 billets from ‘J’ to ‘R’– UT: recode some E7/E8 billets from ‘J’ to ‘R’

• Sea Intensive Ratings:– CM: recode all E5/E6/E7 billets from ‘R’ to ‘J’– EO: same– SW: same, plus E8 billets

• Balanced Rating:– BU: recode some E5/E6/E7 billets from ‘R’ to ‘J’, but E8

billets from ‘J’ to ‘R’

These 3 ratings also need to retain a portion of E4 shore billets to support SSR

M600 Student EMC

• The purpose of EMC M600 should be to account for undesignated Seabees in RTC or “A” School

• However, billets in the M600 EMC do not fully account for “A” school students

• Even worse, an improper EMC logic results in the EMF accounting for only a few Seabee students

• As a result, latest ministats shows only 15 inventory in an EMC with 347 billets

• Trainee Working Group is working to correct this issue.

E9 Sea Manning

E9 S/S Billet Ratio

Log. (E9 Sea Manning)

E9 Sea Manning vs. E9 Sea/Shore Billet Ratio

There is an (imperfect) correlation between E9 sea manning and E9 sea/shore billet ratios CU E9 sea manning is well below the E9 manning trend line

E9 Seabee Billet Review

1. CUCM is very shore intensive, while EQ, UC are not

– However, 4 E8 billets feed into each CUCM billet, but only about 3 E8 billets feed into EQ/UC

– Accordingly, recommend against transferring billets from CUCM to the other two ratings

2. E9 IA EPA matches 12 month execution avg. means no change required

3. Bottom line – no obvious billet adjustments to fix E9 sea manning

Summary of Active Duty Seabee Findings

• Community is currently manned at 93% overall and 104% at sea. – E9 manned at 73% at sea and 122% ashore.

• Ratings vary from sea intensive (CM, EO, SW) to shore intensive (CE, EA, UT). – FAC G billets can be reassigned within Seabee ratings to help balance

sea shore billet ratio.

• Relatively poor homebasing opportunity between sea and shore.– 78% of sea billets in Pt. Hueneme/Gulfport, but only 22% of shore

billets

• 474 shore billets identified as candidates for civilianization.• IA EPA severely out of balance, particularly for Students.

Seabee SELRES Comments

• 55% of Seabee force structure billets are SELRES• SELRES are assigned to twelve NMCBs, two Naval Const

Regts, CBMUs, two Supply Support BNs, NAVSPECWAR OPSUP Tms, Naval Const Force Support Unit, PHIB CB, BMU, EODMU, 18 MIUWUs, etc.

• BA will drop from 10039 in FY05 to 8718 in FY08 due to Reserve ZBR cuts – Chronic reserve Seabee vacancies drove the decision to cut billets

to more executable levels

Recommendations

42

Seabee Recommendations

1. Review 437 in-rate and 37 FAC G billets as candidates for civilianization (mostly in CE, EA, UT ratings).

2. Transfer 44 FAC G billets to other Seabee ratings in need of shore billets.

3. Adjust Seabee IA billet allocation to reflect execution as part of a navywide IA billet review.

4. Correct M600 EMC billet/inventory allocation5. Continue steps to improve E9 sea manning.

– Change sea/shore tour lengths to 36/30– Monitor affects of SDAP and AIP increases

43

Estimated Seabee Manpower Costs and Savings

• The Seabee community is a ~$3.9B enterprise

• Estimated gross MPN savings if 474 excess Seabee shore billets are civilianized:

FY06 FY07 FY08 FY09 FY10 FY11Cummulative MPN Costs $566M $1,147M $1,749M $2,372M $3,017M $3,683M

FY06 FY07 FY08 FY09 FY10 FY11Cummulative MPN Savings $0M $0M $8.7M $35.6M $72.6M $110.9M

Net savings of $28.9M across the FYDP

(assumes 20% savings (100% IA))

Proposed PR-07 Billet Changes Affecting Seabee Ratings

• Added sea billets for MK V SOC Dets (4 billets), EODGRU Mobile Comm Dets (2), Inshore Boat Units (6), and SOC GMV Maint Personnel (37).

• Added shore billets for NAS Keflavik (30) and NAVSUPPFAC Thurmont (7).

• Reduced shore billets due to CNI and NETWARCOM cuts, recruiting and NETC cuts, and 1NCD reductions.

• Net reduction in Seabee endstrength:

Enlisted Community Reviews

• “Vertical” look at individual enlisted communities – Focus first on manpower requirements (billet base)

• Sea / Shore rotation; Career Progression; Home-basing• Challenge military essentiality• Review how rating’s function is delivered across Navy

– Review community management issues • Advancement Opportunity; Retention; Accessions• Individuals Account; Special Pays & Bonuses

– Develop actionable recommendations for N1 decision to deliver manpower savings

• Time-phase changes over FYDP as required to support executability

Provide the Community Sponsor recommendations for their Human Capital Strategy

50

Community Review Process

• Establish initial working relationship with selected community sponsors and managers– Vision, background, data, core competencies, career paths, etc.

• Review TFMMS Billet Base– Military essentiality & IGCA coding consistency across claimancies– Identify target billets for review

• Review Personnel Inventories– Alignment of strength to authorizations

• Assess Influencing and Executability Factors– Law, policy, costs, career expectations, community management issues

• Develop Alternatives & Recommendations– Actionable and executable….Total Force & Human Capital perspective…

• Conduct Decision Briefing• Sponsor/claimants submit program adjustments
