The purpose of this research is to determine if the Pacific Fleet private shipyard depot-level maintenance pilot program created financial flexibility by using Other Procurement Navy funds instead of Operation and Maintenance Navy funds. A questionnaire was sent to the Navy's Office of Budget and Pacific Fleet's comptroller and maintenance teams to understand what changes occurred and how they adapted to the changes. This thesis identified the positive and negative effects of the pilot and concludes that the Navy did benefit from the change in funding appropriations because it allowed for better contracting strategies by alleviating the time pressure of use or lose funds, which allowed for stable funding and competitive bids from contractors, reducing the amount of most contracts.
