The SUPSHIP Operation Manual (SOM) describes the mission, functions, responsibilities, organizational structure, and common business operations of the Supervisors of Shipbuilding, Conversion and Repair (SUPSHIPs). The SOM is primarily intended for use as an online, quick reference desk guide which is extensively hyperlinked to reference documents and websites.
