The JPDO Co-Funds a Task Augmentation with NASA’s Subsonic Fixed Wing Project

The JPDO’s Interagency Portfolio and Systems Analysis Division (IPSA) has co-funded a task augmentation with NASA’s Subsonic Fixed Wing Project titled: Creation of a Strategic Planning & Prioritization Process with Georgia Institute of Technology. To fully evaluate the impacts of the NextGen Enterprise Architecture, IPSA is required to run lifecycle benefit and cost analysis out to the year 2050. This long-range timeframe creates an unprecedented requirement to not only evaluate R&D technology benefits directly affecting Air Traffic Management, but also to evaluate technology transfer benefits from NextGen R&D. In addition, to insure that NextGen will be competitive in its target timeframe, an analysis of future technology trends that are both complementary and competing is required. This task will establish a process for collecting and identifying relevant technology trends that could affect the NextGen implementations, and provide an evaluation and impact framework to assess those consequences.

NextGen Interagency Budget Request

The Interagency Portfolio & Systems Analysis division is working a request by the Office of Management and Budget for the development of an FY 2010 interagency budget submission for the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen). The requested FY10 budget data, which is pre-decisional, will be used internally by the Office of Management and Budget in order to highlight NextGen interagency components and to identify the Federal contribution to NextGen. The Joint Planning and Development Office (JPDO) will compile the data and will provide this data to the Department of Transportation for transmittal to the Office of Management and Budget no later than February 19, 2009.
