SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Optimized Fleet Response 
Plan Phase Variation in Signature and Destructive Behaviors; OMB 
Control Number 0703-OFRP.
    Type of Request: New collection.
    Number of Respondents: 585.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 585.
    Average Burden per Response: 30 minutes.
    Annual Burden Hours: 292.5 hours.
    Needs and Uses: Navy leaders in the Navy 21st Century Office (OPNAV 
N17) have engaged with researchers at the Naval Postgraduate School 
(NPS) through the NPS Naval Research Program to conduct research to 
investigate if signature and destructive behaviors vary across stages 
of the Optimized Fleet Response Plan (OFRP). The OFRP is a fleet force 
model that includes 5 phases: basic, advanced, integrated, sustainment, 
and maintenance. Ships cycle through the phases to maintain 
employability and preserve maintenance, modernization, and workup. 
Anecdotal and observational evidence suggests variation in behaviors 
across the phases, and, in particular, an uptick in destructive 
behaviors during the maintenance phase. Congruent with research 
findings, the Chief of Naval Operations has directed the Navy to create 
a ``Culture of Excellence,'' noting that by focusing on positive, 
signature behaviors, the Navy can build and sustain a lethal force of 
tough sailors who are ethical and masters of their trade. The Culture 
of Excellence Campaign's Perform to Plan effort will empower 
warfighting capability by fostering psychological, physical, and 
emotional toughness. To meet this goal, the Navy needs to understand 
what encourages signature behaviors and reduces destructive behaviors 
and how these behaviors impact readiness.
    The overarching aim of this study is to support the Navy Culture of 
Excellence Campaign's Performance to Plan effort to encourage signature 
behaviors and reduce destructive behaviors. The study will answer three 
questions: What are the rates of signature & destructive behaviors 
during 3 phases of OFRP? Do rates differ by organizational command 
(department)? How do signature & destructive behaviors impact 
readiness?
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: One-time.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    OMB Desk Officer: Ms. Jasmeet Seehra.
