CDI Marine Company and its entire CDIM Team are extremely proud to be part of NAVSEA’s SEAPORTe Team.

In 2002, the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) promulgated Seapower 21.  It provides a framework to align, organize and integrate the U.S. Navy to meet the wide variety of challenges that lie ahead. The CNO called upon the entire Navy, including Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) and the Warfare Centers (WCs), to find ways to become more efficient and effective.

SeaPort Enhanced (SEAPORT-e) makes electronic procurement of Engineering, Technical and Programmatic support services at NAVSEA's Warfare Center community a reality.  SEAPORT-e extends the current procurement vehicle, SeaPort, by leveraging SeaPort's successful business model and efficiencies.  The integration of SeaPort and SEAPORT-e emphasizes NAVSEA's strong commitment to customers and industry partners alike.  Together, SeaPort and SEAPORT-e will help NAVSEA reduce costs and promote business efficiencies in the effort to lead the Navy on a successful course.  The CDIM Team is READY do what is necessary to make this Vision a Reality.

The CDI Marine Company is part of CDI Engineering Solutions, a division of CDI Corporation that employs a large pool of over 2,500 engineers and technicians serving the marine defense, aerospace, pharmaceutical Process and Industrial, and Life Sciences industries. CDIM is one of the largest engineering technical services companies in the USA providing support to industry and government sectors with a very wide range of services, from clerical, design and CAD drafting support to advanced computational hydrodynamics, prototyping, RTD&E and combat-systems engineering services covering virtually all functional areas required of the solicitation.  The personnel grades and corresponding labor rates that support this spectrum of service at CDIM is therefore very wide and offers a unique opportunity for staffing programs and tasks with the most cost effective mix of skill sets and labor rates.

The CDIM Team includes three CDI Divisions and over 100 Teammates.  A carefully selected team of subcontractors was formed to complement CDIM’s capabilities to effectively and economically meet the total needs of all Warfare Centers.  These Teammates all bring unique expertise that can be brought to bear on Navy needs.  They have a long history of outstanding performance and a proven record of working and communicating effectively with the CDI Marine Company. 

In response to Seapower 21, one step to increase efficiency was to group the Naval Surface Warfare Centers (NSWC) and the Naval Undersea Warfare Centers (NUWC) into seven Geographic Zones.  The CDIM Team has a strong presence in all seven Zones.

Further, the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) and the Naval Undersea Warfare Center (NUWC) have aligned to provide seamless integrated support for twelve core Product Area Directorates.  The product areas are lead by Product Area Directors that notionally are very small planning and oversight offices.  The day-to-day project management, planning, staffing and project execution will be provided by the geographically diverse NSWC and NUWC Divisions.  These twelve core Product Areas were parsed into twenty-one Functional Areas.  The CDIM Team has a strong capability in all twenty-one Functional Areas.
