Trac Consulting, Llc

WE ARE HERE TO HELP YOU SUCCEED We are a boutique-consulting firm headquartered in San Diego and operating on both coasts. Our mission is to help small businesses in the ship repair and ship support industries succeed from the deck plate up. WE ARE WORKING TO UNITE THE INDUSTRY We believe that the use of a standardized Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software system throughout the supply and service chain – from vendor to subcontractor to prime contractor to Government – could allow decision makers to drive down schedule delays and cost overruns for maintenance and new construction. “From fiscal years 2011 to 2014, public and private shipyards struggled to complete maintenance availabilities on time, with 89 percent of carrier and 72 percent of surface combatant availabilities experiencing schedule overruns. These schedule overruns resulted in an average of 65 and 46 lost operational days per availability for aircraft carriers and surface combatants, respectively. From fiscal year 2011 to 2014, carriers and surface combatants experienced unanticipated growth in maintenance requirements on an average of 17 percent and 34 percent, respectively. This “growth and new work” also led to annual average cost growths of $82.4 million and $164.8 million for aircraft carrier and surface combatants, respectively.” U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) report (2016)(p. 23) Through Government-industry teamwork and advancements in technology, we can leverage mountains of data to provide total, reliable, auditable contracting solutions throughout the ship repair industrial base – from the workers on the deck plate up the chain of command.
