During Technical Excellence Week 2019, March 18 through March 22, EB recognized the achievements and showcased the work of the engineering and design community through technical presentations, employee recognition events, production facility tours and competitions.

This year’s theme was Delivering the Advantage By: Honoring the Past, Excelling in the Present and Shaping the Future. The theme was echoed by Rear Adm. Dollaga, Commander of the Undersea Warfighting Development Center, during his keynote address, and by Cmdr. Litty, Commanding Officer of the USS South Dakota, during his guest presentation.

The theme was also included in this year’s three competitions: DETECT Challenge, Elevator Speech and Junkyard Wars. Ray Zimmerman won the Elevator Speech competition. David Hufner, Kedrick Swain and Guillermo Rivera each won one of the three challenges in the DETECT Challenge. Silent but Deadly, a team consisting of Art Marcelynas, Dean Myllymaki, Nathan St. Pierre, Stephen Ganz and Tim Stankewicz, won Junkyard Wars.
