One Complete—More to Come
t all came together on
February 18, 2006. The
fundraising and housebuilding
talents and contributions of our
employees as well as those of their
family members, friends, area businesses, and Habitat for Humanity
supporters paid off on that day
with the dedication of the new
home of Staci Alvarez and her
sons, Anthony and Michael. The
Alvarez family moved in a week
later. As Staci recently said, “We’ve
gotten to know so many people
from BIW and I want to give our
heartfelt thanks to everyone who’s
worked on the house.” With a
touch of emotion in her voice,
she said, “We really appreciate it.”
Mark Lamarre (D10), chief organizer said, “One of the unexpected
outcomes was our relationship
with the Alvarez family. We had
a great collaboration.”
In 2004, Dave Clark (D10) and
several others had an idea to build

a Habitat for Humanity house as a Preoutfit leadership development project with
goals to do something lasting for the community and improve working relationships
within BIW through a project where people
could work together in non-traditional
ways. Pre-outfit leadership agreed on the
idea, formed a committee and soon, the
scope of the activity became yard-wide.
According to Lamarre, “There was never
pressure on anyone to be involved.” BIW
employees, and sometimes their family and
friends, responded in many meaningful
ways, contributing their skills, some of
which might have been polished at BIW,
some not. At least 150 BIW employees
supported this effort with significant
amounts of their time and labor—they
are listed on the back cover. Many, many
more contributed financially or in kind.
Mark says, “It’s impossible to mention
people by name without overlooking the
equal contributions of many others. But,
as examples of the commitments people
made, there’s Dennis Masse (D10) who
took on the job of Construction Supervisor
and House Lead, performing a task that
Habitat usually fills through a salaried position. Dennis was also the general contractor, the one person who was always responsible and always on site. Jane Colby (D10),
Volunteer Coordinator and cheerleader,
organized, assigned, and sometimes recruited the people and skills needed for the various stages of the job. Joe Fortin (D77) even
convinced his rock and roll band of former
high school buddies to come to Maine for a
well-attended dance and fund raiser at the
Brunswick Atrium last March.”
Mark continued, “The generosity of our
employees’ family members was just as
notable. Again, as examples of many such
contributions, Pierrette Morris, wife of
Mike Morris (D20), owns a housecleaning
service and completely cleaned the home’s
interior near the end of the construction
period. Jeremy Doyle, a private contractor
and son-in-law of Matt Reid (D10), laid
the foundation and Paul Chase’s (D20)
son, Todd helped tremendously with the
electrical work.”

From the Helm
Dugan Shipway, President, Bath Iron Works
aturday, February 11, 2006, was a great day as our Ship
Sponsor, Cathy Forst, the great-great granddaughter of
Captain Charles Vernon Gridley, christened our 27th
Arleigh Burke Class Destroyer, GRIDLEY (DDG 101).
Descendents from four of the six generations of Captain
Gridley’s family joined our employees, their families and
friends, the Navy, local community members, our Governor,
and all four members of the Maine Congressional Delegation,
to celebrate. As shown in the picture, even Cathy’s mother,
Mrs. Jean Rose (left), who christened the third ship named
GRIDLEY in 1961, was present. “Family” was clearly the
theme for this christening. As I noticed the strong bonds that
exist between the members of the Gridley family, it got me
thinking about how essential it is to be able to count on strong
support from our own family members—those at home as
well as members of our BIW family. That strong support
makes great achievements possible.
We are making excellent progress in our goal to reduce the
number of hours it takes us to build DDGs. Fifteen months
ago at another christening, I told former Assistant Secretary
of the Navy for Research, Development and Acquisition (ASN
RDA) John Young that BIW would deliver BAINBRIDGE for
a half million fewer hours than her predecessor, NITZE (DDG
94). As a result of your innovation, hard work and support for
each other, you did just that. At the GRIDLEY christening,
I told the current ASN RDA, Dr. Delores M. Etter: “the beat
goes on … and we would deliver GRIDLEY (DDG 101) for
one million fewer hours than DDG 94.” I have great faith in
you and I know what we can do when we accept our individual responsibilities each day and support each other.
Looking to the next program, “the beat goes on” with
DD(X) as well. I recently got detailed updates on the DD(X)
efforts in progress by our design, engineering, and procurement team. Things are really gaining momentum here. The
entire team is focused on designing DD(X) differently up front
—with fewer parts—so it can be constructed more logically
using our unique facilities and processes to provide a quality,
affordable surface combatant to the Navy.
S
Safety continues to need your strong support. In January
we had too many injuries, including fifteen Lost Time Injuries,
most due to slips, trips, and improper lifting. Be alert as you
move through the yard. Notify someone if you come upon a
slip or trip hazard. When moving something heavy, ask for
assistance or use lifting equipment. Watch out for each other—
it’s much tougher to get our job done if the whole team isn’t
aboard, and remember: every injury is personal.
Shipbuilding demands teamwork—from start to finish.
However, if one or more team members are not on the job,
those who are there have to compensate for that loss. Whether
because of an injury or any other reason, when a crew member
is not aboard or cannot perform his or her responsibilities, the
whole team becomes less efficient. The ripple effects often go
well beyond the individual’s own area. To continue to design
and build ships for fewer hours and improve our competitive
position will require each of us to come to work every day. We
need to be in the shipyard doing our jobs and supporting the
other members of our team who are working right next to us.
Coming to work each day, supporting each other and using
good old Maine common sense will take us a long way toward
preparing us to compete and affordably deliver whatever ships
the Navy may need—whenever they need them. It was a pleasure to spend time with Cathy Forst and her Gridley family relatives and to observe the strength of their family bonds. To continue to do the things we’ve already started will require equally
strong bonds within BIW.

Mega Unit Milestone Nears
n March, the first girth of the DDG 106
Forward Mega Unit will roll into PO-2,
marking the first physical move using
the new Mega Unit Rail System. Two more
girths will join the initial unit to create the
first machinery space mega unit. Later,
the Aft Mega Unit will be created by again
joining three girths to create a second
machinery space mega unit.
A great deal of work got us to this point
following a request to Lean Manufacturing
to investigate increasing the size of selected
units during construction. The purpose of
the change is to shift scope from the Land
Level Transfer Facility (LLTF) to the Preoutfit buildings where the work can be
accomplished more efficiently. Analysis by
Planning and Lean Manufacturing led to
I
approval to undertake the project
which was led by Kirk Lussier and
Don Bernier (both D10).
PO-2 changes, per Kirk Lussier,
include, “Doubling the capacity of the
ventilation system by installing a new
vent system between Bays 3 and 4, and
relocating a mezzanine from Building
18 to PO-2 Bay 2 for use as a service
shop by mechanics.” The innovative
rail system engineered and designed
by BIW creates sufficient PO-2 floor
load capacity to allow multiple joins to
be completed in PO-2. “This means” said
Lussier, “that we shift thousands of hours
from LLTF to Pre-outfit, and make a significant dent in our cost to build DDGs.”
Unit 2130 in the Assembly Building prior to moving
into PO-2—Mega Unit construction on DDG is an
example of doing things differently to better support
current programs while positioning ourselves for
DD(X).

BIW NEWS February 2006 3
Katrina—Making a Difference
ollowing Hurricane Katrina in
late August 2006, BIW responded
with a gate collection that raised
over $21,000 for hurricane relief in the
Gulf Coast, and the amount was doubled by a matching contribution from
General Dynamics. Many BIW individuals further contributed through local
organizations, churches or schools.
However, for those who knew people
impacted by the disaster, the response
was often more personal.
The BIW DDG Planning Yard (PY)
and the Northrop Grumman Ship
Systems PY work closely together.
After Katrina, many people at the
James Building were worried about
their counterparts at NGSS. Shortly
after the storm, during a conference call
including the Navy, George Nungesser,
NGSS CG PY Program Manager, and
John Nowinski (D90), BIW’s DDG/FFG
PY Program Manager, Mr. Nungesser
said that his home in Pascagoula was
damaged but his greatest concern was
for family members that he had not
heard from. Happily, his was a good
result. Mr. Nungesser’s story, and those
of others, generated a sincere desire to
contribute in a meaningful way. Cliff
Sawyer (D90) said, “people at BIW saw
F
the news, felt frustrated, and wanted to
do something tangible to support these
folks.”
That opportunity came in September
when NGSS identified fabrication and
assembly work which was needed by
their CG Navy customer in the near
term. BIW offered to complete these
tasks with the support of management
and production and the understanding
that the work could not compromise
existing schedules or commitments.
In late September, BIW received a
NGSS purchase order to fabricate three
50-caliber Ready Service Lockers (RSL)
and one AEGIS Directed Telemetry
Antenna (ADTA) Platform. The initial
plan to execute resulted in a 16–20 week
delivery—too late for the needs of the Navy
and the fleet. BIW then assembled a Tiger
Team consisting of Dana McIntire, Doug
Murphy, and Rick Marco (all D10); Dave
Goulette and Mike Hall (both D84); Dick
Barter (D86); Bernie Pelletier (D87); and
Cliff Sawyer, supported by the Materials
and Change Management resources of the
PY Team.
The Team developed workarounds that
incorporated as many efficiencies across the
team as possible, all focused on managing
the schedule. For example, BIW had the
GRIDLEY Christened
n February 11, 2006, under blue skies
and amidst seasonably cold temperatures, the christening of GRIDLEY
(DDG 101) was held at BIW.
Shown to the right, Cathy Forst, sponsor
and great-great granddaughter of the ship’s
namesake, Captain Charles Vernon Gridley,
christened the ship with the traditional breaking of the champagne bottle. The Principal
Speaker at the event was Dr. Delores M. Etter,
Assistant Secretary of the Navy, Research,
Development and Acquisition.

CG drawings but the approach and format
was different than that of DDG. Rather
than wait for NGSS resources to interpret
the drawings, BIW identified the similarities
between the CG and DDG products and
developed material packages that proved
not only usable, but in some cases, offered
improvements that can be wrapped into the
process going forward.
(Continued on pg. 7)
One Complete (from pg. 1)
Numerous donations of time and materials from the community were also part of
this effort. The Merrymeeting Board of
Realtors contributed seed money, Harry
Crooker & Sons donated services and material that would have been very difficult to
budget, and the Bath Garden Club will
landscape the house in the spring. BIW
supported the effort by loaning tools and
equipment and many people worked 3-day
weekends at the building site by utilizing
BIW’s flextime policy.
“With this experience behind us, there’s
no question but that we will continue and
build other houses for Habitat for Humanity, although one project at a time,” said
Mark. First, land in a suitable location
must be secured. Habitat for Humanity
will identify the owner family through their
application and screening process. Then,
BIW employees will form committees and
again begin the process of fundraising,
planning, and building—all donated by
the individuals and organizations involved.
According to Mark, “It’s not realistic to
think the same volunteers will work on
the next house. Most of those folks need
a break after their recent level of involvement, and it opens up the experience to a
new group of people.” Anyone interested
in finding out more about the next project
can contact Jane Colby (x2611) or Mark
Lamarre (x1376).
This time, “we want to widen the aperture in terms of involving more folks from
around the company,” said Mark. “We want
to use it to improve working relationships
in different areas of the company by drawing people together who don’t normally
work together. We also want to reach out to
BIW retirees and target the skills and availability of people who may have done this
type of work and have a great deal to teach
others. We’ve had preliminary discussions
with Steve Wilson and Art Dresser who are
excited about getting involved.”
Mark continues, “It’s also a chance to
show people and businesses outside BIW
how well people work together and how
generous BIW people are. It’s a bit of an
outreach effort in terms of letting the community know a little more about BIW
through meeting some of us.”
Dugan Shipway echoes Mark’s comments, “I encourage everyone in the shipyard to consider becoming part of the next
homebuilding project—in either a leadership or some other role. You’ll get to know
some wonderful people, will make a lasting
contribution to a family in the community
and will receive much more return through
satisfaction than the hours and effort you
provide to the project.”
The builders of the Alvarez’s new home
on Middle Street think that the benefits of
their efforts will be reflected in the work
place. “But even if that weren’t a factor,”
says Mark, “the fact that we are serving
Habitat’s mission, which is to address the
huge need for affordable housing right
here in our community, is reason enough
to keep us building.”

The result of these efforts was completion of the ADTA Platform on December 5,
2005, and completion of the RSLs the first
week in January, both weeks ahead of the
original forecast. The ADTA Platform was
shipped to San Diego and installed on
USS VICKSBURG (CG 69). The RSLs
were shipped to Pascagoula, MS, and kitted
for quick dispatch to another CG retrofit
customer. Based on this response, NGSS
recently asked BIW to bid on another set
of RSLs required by their CG Planning
Yard contract.
In November, NGSS personnel, including George Nungesser, were at BIW for
the joint Quarterly Program Review.
John Nowinski and others presented their
counterparts with a cake, which referenced
a popular reality TV show: “SURVIVOR:
PASCAGOULA—Planning Yard.” Per Cliff
Sawyer, “this experience made us aware of
our relationship and how much we wanted
to help NGSS. Everyone who participated
felt pretty good about what they did.”
Recent Contract Awards
DDG Post Shakedown Availability (PSA)
On February 3, 2006, the U.S. Navy
awarded BIW a $30.9M modification to
a previously awarded contract to perform
PSA maintenance, repair and upgrade
work for two Arleigh Burke-class Aegis
destroyers homeported in Norfolk, VA.
Work will be performed on USS BAINBRIDGE (DDG 96) and USS FORREST
SHERMAN (DDG 98) by the BIW/BAE
PSA Team at the facilities of BAE Systems
Norfolk Ship Repair. Work on DDG 96
will begin in May 2006 and is expected to
conclude in August 2006; and work on
DDG 98 will begin in August 2006 and is
expected to conclude in November 2006.
BIW has previously performed two
PSAs for Arleigh Burke Class Destroyers
