Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) National Airspace System Plan (NAS), now known as the Aviation System Capital Investment Plan (CIP). GAO found that: (1) as of October 1991, FAA estimated that 1991 CIP projects would require $31.9 billion through 2000, which is more than one-half billion dollars over its 1990 estimate; (2) the cost increase is primarily attributable to cost changes in original NAS projects that are included in CIP; (3) for fiscal year 1982 through 1992, Congress has appropriated about $13.4 billion of the $31.9 billion that FAA estimates is needed for CIP; (4) the 36 projects FAA has completed comprises approximately 3 percent of the total estimated modernization costs through 2000; (5) the FAA $31.9 billion estimate may not have recognized all of the modernization funding needed, since FAA based the estimate on a constantly changing NAS consolidation plan; (6) although FAA based its current funding estimates on its original plan to consolidate over 200 facilities into 23 facilities, FAA is discussing a new plan that would require over 50 facilities; (7) of the 12 major projects reviewed, all of the projects had either experienced cost increases or schedule delays, and some had experienced both; and (8) the 12 projects reviewed incurred cost increases ranging from $13 million to $219.2 million due to spare part purchases, facility construction, system integration, and changing requirements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO discussed the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) program to modernize its National Airspace System (NAS), focusing on: (1) the status of key modernization projects; (2) FAA's actions to implement recommendations to correct modernization problems; and (3) the opportunities and challenges facing FAA as it embarks upon its new modernization approach. GAO noted that: (1) since 1982, Congress has appropriated over $25 billion to the modernization program; (2) while FAA has fielded some equipment, historically, the agency has experienced considerable difficulty in delivering systems with promised cost and schedule parameters; (3) as a result, FAA has been forced to implement costly interim projects; (4) meanwhile, two key systems--the Wide Area Augmentation System and the Standard Terminal Automation Replacement System--have encountered cost increases and schedule delays; (5) GAO's work has pinpointed the root causes of FAA's modernization problems and has recommended actions to overcome them; (6) most recently, GAO found shortcomings in the areas of systems architecture or the overall modernization blueprint, cost estimating and accounting, software acquisition, and organizational culture; (7) although FAA has begun to implement many of GAO's recommendations, sustained management attention is required to improve the management of the modernization program; (8) FAA is collaborating with and seeking commitment from users in developing a new approach to make the modernization less costly and to provide earlier user benefits; (9) the challenge for FAA is to have disciplined processes in place in order to deliver projects as promised; and (10) FAA will also need to quickly address the looming year 2000 computer crisis to ensure that critical air traffic control systems do not malfunction or produce inaccurate information simply because the date has changed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on the status of the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) overall air traffic control modernization program and selected individual major systems. GAO found that FAA: (1) experienced increases in the overall cost of the modernization effort, and estimated that it would require about $31 billion in facilities and equipment appropriations through 2000, a $4 billion increase over its April 1990 estimate; (2) completed 30 modernization projects through 1990, accounting for 2 percent of the $31 billion, and had 203 active and planned projects in its Capital Investment Plan; (3) continued to experience cost increases ranging from $0.2 million to $504 million and schedule delays ranging from 8 to 23 months, for 12 major systems; (4) completed only one of six projects it anticipated completing in 1990; (5) redefined its major acquisitions to include those procurements exceeding $50 million, resulting in an increase in the number of major acquisitions from 11 in 1990 to 44 in 1991; and (6) made several efforts to increase its compliance with federal requirements to reevaluate major projects at critical points in the procurement process.
