  1. DSCP Subsistence Worldwide Customer Conference & Food Show June 2010 R&D Projects for the Marine Corps and Air Force Food Service Equipment

  2. MC Strategic Food Service Plan Equipment required to meet the mission Equipment Gap TRHS E-TRHSEFK FFSS FSR / MRE MRE / FSR UGR-B UGR-H&S Day 30 – 90+ Final 21 Day 1 - 20 Day 21+ Date: 1 Jan 2010

  3. R&D and Procurement goals • Goals • Bridge the gap in current equipment that makes it difficult to meet the stated mission • Provide streamlined procurement actions with CAIV as the driver • Meet the expeditionary requirements of the MC by providing low footprint/low support feeding solutions • Increase morale by increasing the variety and quality of rations Date: 1 Jan, 2010

  4. Marine Corps Legacy and R&D Systems • Legacy Systems • Tray Ration heating System (TRHS) 588 fielded systems • Field Food Service System (FFSS) 42 fielded systems • New R&D Systems • Enhanced Tray Ration Heating System (ETRHS) integration of fielded components and purchased refrigeration systems • Expeditionary Field Kitchen (EFK)

  5. Equipment – Tray Ration Heating System (day 20+) • ‘Heat on the Move’ capability meets expeditionary requirements of the MC • Entirely contained within the HMMWV • Uses DC power supplied by the vehicle to run a JP-8 fired burner and heat the tank Date: 1 Jan, 2010

  6. Equipment – Tray Ration Heating System (day 20+) • Cook starts the system, drops in the heat and serve rations and drives to site, able to feed 125 personnel upon arrival • Limited ration flexibility as the system only boils water, no grilling or baking • Modernization effort (Statement of Need in staffing) drivers are the elimination of unarmored HMMWV, lack of flexibility and sole sourcing of components Date: 1 Jan, 2010

  7. Enhanced Tray Ration Heating System • Designed to support 250-350 Marines (2 hot group meals/day) in forward locations serving the full family of DoD group rations • Kitchen in a box concept allows for rapid transportation to/within theatre • The refrigeration unit provides refrigerated or frozen space (300 ft3)

  8. Enhanced Tray Ration Heating System • Refrigeration and addition of baking and grilling capability provides greater ration flexibility (UGR-A™s are not currently authorized) • Integration effort only. All items are in the MC logistics supply train • Acquisition Objective is 68 systems • Planned fielding in 4Q10

  9. Equipment – Field Food Service System (base camp operations) • Capacity to support 850 personnel with all ration types. Includes sanitation and serving capabilities • Original AO was 75 systems of which 42 were procured and fielded. • Three ISO containers that mate to form a single system • All electric commercial appliances provide rapid heat up and recovery times, steam generation, large throughput • Not designed for expeditionary use. Power requirements (200kW), interface requirements (all containers need to be on ~ same level ground) and support requirements (difficult electric maintenance and repair functions) make the system difficult to field and maintain. Date: 1 Jan, 2010

  10. Expeditionary Field Kitchen • Capacity to feed 500 with the ability to prepare all group rations • Acquisition Objective is 104 systems. Procurement effort underway with RFP published 22 Apr 10. • Item shown is the third of three prototypes. System completed rigorous off-road test regimen at ATC to obtain ‘expeditionary’ status. Recently completed successful Limited User Evaluation. • Estimated contract award in Aug 2010

  11. Expeditionary Field Kitchen • EFK requires 10kW MEP 803A generator to run all systems. Gensets procured and supplied to engineering support group • Modified commercial appliances provide restaurant style ability to MC food service personnel while staying within the guidelines of the MCs ‘single burner initiative’ • Follows single box concept, all items necessary to chill, prep, cook, serve and sanitize are contained in the one container

  12. AF Strategic Food Service Plan“Build the Base” Equipment SPEK/CDK 9-1 Legacy BEAR 550i (1100, 1650, 2200, 2750, 3300) ESPEK/CESPEK New R&D TRHS E-TRHSEFK FFSS FSR / MRE UGR-H&S Limited UGR-A All Group Rations Incl. Line item A’s Day 5 - 15 Day15+ Day 1 - 5 Date: 20 Jan 2010

  13. Goals Goals: • Meet the Air Forces modular force bed down and field feeding requirements and objectives (BEAR play book) • Reduce labor, provide upgraded equipment, and increases the yield of food production • Reduce overall life cycle costs of food service equipment • Provide modern, approved/tested electric food service equipment items • Reduce transportation and deployment footprint • Improve feeding efficiencies, cook comforts and morale • Reduce logistical burdens and support technical transitions Date: 20 Jan 10

  14. Air Force Legacy and R&D Systems • Legacy Systems: • Single Pallet Expeditionary Kitchen (SPEK) • Containerized Deployment Kitchen (CDK) System • 9-1 Kitchen System (i.e. Harvest Falcon) • New R&D Systems: • Electric Single Pallet Expeditionary Kitchen (ESPEK) , Containerized Electric Single Pallet Expeditionary Kitchen System (replaces SPEK & CDK) • Basic Expeditionary Airfield Resources (BEAR) 550 Kitchen System (Modernized 9-1)

  15. Single Pallet Expeditionary Kitchen System (SPEK) Legacy SPEK: Two versions (Home Station and BEAR) • Supports initial UGR-H&S™ meal preparation for 550, two times per day until 9-1/BEAR set arrival • Single 463L pallet, TEMPER Tent or EISU shelter, primary equipment: fuel-fired TRHS, sanitation system, and generator (2kW) • No organic refrigeration or ECU Date: 20 Jan 10

  16. Containerized Deployment Kitchen (CDK) Legacy CDK: • Supports initial UGR-H&S™, UGR-A™, and line item A meal preparation for 550, two times per day until BEAR set arrival (30 systems) • 2 for 1 Expandable 20” ISO container, all electric appliances, 150kW gen set, 12K pounds • Standard & enhanced replacement equipment package provided to the Air Force in 2006 • Heavy, difficult to move via air (requires K-loader) Date: 20 Jan 10
