Description

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is dedicated to providing the safest and most efficient aerospace system in the world. We are committed to advancing the next level of aviation safety and efficiency, leading globally in the safe integration of new users, operations, and technologies into the National Airspace System (NAS). As stewards of the American public and our aviation community, we hold ourselves accountable to the highest standards. Safety is our passion�we work tirelessly to ensure every air and space traveler reaches their destination securely. Excellence is our promise�we deliver results grounded in professionalism, transparency, and accountability. Integrity is our foundation�we carry out our responsibilities with honesty, ethical rigor, and moral soundness. Our people are our greatest strength. The respect, collaboration, and dedication of our workforce drive our mission forward. Innovation is our hallmark, empowering us to envision and create solutions that push beyond today�s aerospace boundaries and shape the future of aviation. As such, in order to accommodate research and technological solutions that we did not contemplate, an Area of Interest (AOI) is a broader problem statement than a traditional government solicitation. Likewise, our evaluation process will be conducted with our organizational objectives in mind, and the FAA may select vendors whose research and technological solutions show greater potential to achieve the FAA�s mission.
