Description

The FAA, partnering with other federal agencies and the aviation industry, is implementing the Next Generation Air Transportation System (Next Gen), a new satellite-based air traffic management system that will replace the current radar-based system. Concurrently, FAA continues to maintain and upgrade existing air traffic control (ATC) systems that will also be needed for NextGen. This report determined: (1) how, if at all, costs and schedules of FAA ATC acquisitions programs, including those related to NextGen, have changed since they were first submitted to Congress; (2) the reasons for any such changes; and (3) the extent that selected ATC programs adhere to cost and schedule best practices. Charts and tables. A print on demand report.
