Smart Ship Repair Act of 2025
HR 2955, the Smart Ship Repair Act of 2025, extends the maximum timeframe for "short-term work" on Navy combatant and escort vessel construction projects from 12 to 18 months. This change directly affects Navy shipbuilding contracts and project management by allowing more time for temporary work assignments during vessel construction. The bill amends Section 8669a(c)(4) of Title 10, U.S. Code, to adjust the definition of short-term work for these specific projects. It is a procedural change focused solely on modifying a timeframe, not altering broader policy or funding.
