This briefing discusses the Joint Planning and Development Office's (JPDO) role in revolutionizing the U.S. air transportation system. Established following the 2002 Commission on the Future of the U.S. Aerospace Industry's recommendations, the JPDO aims to create an integrated plan addressing safety, security, capacity, and efficiency by 2025. This collaborative effort involves multiple government agencies including FAA, NASA, and DoD, and emphasizes public and private sector engagement. Key goals include a significant increase in capacity and reduction in travel time and costs.

Purpose • Information Briefing • History • Current activities • Schedule of events
History • 2002 Commission on the Future of the United States Aerospace Industry: “The Administration should immediately create a multi-agency task force…to develop an integrated plan to transform our air transportation system….The Joint Program Office…brings together needed participation from FAA, NASA, DoD, DHS, NOAA, and other government organizations. Within a year, the Joint Program Office should present a plan to the Administration and the Congress outlining the overall strategy, schedule, and resources needed to develop and deploy the nation’s next generation air transportation system” • January 2003 DOT Secretary Mineta/FAA Administrator Blakey formed Joint Planning Office
Public Law 108-176 December 12, 2003FAA Reauthorization“Vision 100” • Establishes the Joint Planning and Development Office (JPDO) • Establishes a multi- agency Senior Policy Committee • Requires the JPDO to • Operate in conjunction with relevant programs in specified government agencies • Consult with the public and ensure the participation of experts from a broad range of entities within the private sector • Establishes the requirement for an integrated national plan • Plan must meet air transportation safety, security, efficiency and capacity needs beyond those currently included in the Operational Evolution Plan (FAA 10-year outlook)
Integrated Plan Requirements • National vision statement for an air transportation system that will meet the potential demand by 2025 • Description of the demand and future system performance characteristics including goals, objectives and policies and underlying assumptions and analyses • Multiagency R&D roadmap • Description of operational concepts to meet projected system performance requirements with timelines and budget requirements to meet 2025 vision Note: Plan delivered to Congress December 12th, 2004
Governance and Execution • Senior Policy Committee (SPC) • Chaired by Secretary of Transportation Mineta • Secretary-level group; in some cases (DOD) participation is delegated) • Three SPC meetings held since October 2003 • Joint Planning and Development office (JPDO) • Integrated Product Teams (IPTs)
Key Issues • JPDO Goals • Program scope is “curb-to-curb” • Triple 2001 capacity • 30% reduction in consumer time • 25% reduction in consumer cost • Budget • Department budgetary authority not transferred • Direct OMB interaction • Level of programmatic authority still under review
Integrated Product Teams • Harmonize Equipage and Operations Globally - FAA • Develop Airport Infrastructure to Meet Future Demand - FAA • Integrate Air Transportation Security Activities - DHS • Establish an Agile Air Traffic System - NASA • Establish User-Specific Situational Awareness - DOD • Establish a Comprehensive Proactive Safety Management Approach - FAA • Environmental Protection that Allows Sustained Aviation Growth - FAA • Develop a System-Wide Capability to Reduce Weather Impacts – DOC/NOAA
Weather IPT • IPT formed September 2003 • NOAA/FAA/NASA/DoD/Academia/NCAR participation • Limited industry participation to date • Six Weather IPT sub-elements • Observations (ground, aircraft, and space-based) • Forecasts (includes wake vortex) • Dissemination (weather information network) • Integration (probabilistic decision tools) • Training (Meteorologist/pilot/controller/dispatch) • Mitigation (aircraft equipage) • Policy/Outreach under consideration
Weather IPTConnections to other IPTs • “4-D” weather information pushed through a System Wide Information Management (SWIM) architecture • Common weather operational picture • Cockpit/Virtual Tower/Dispatch • Enroute Air Traffic Management • Capacity/Efficiency enhancement • Supporting 10000+ Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Fleet • Airport Operations • Ground operations • Capacity/Efficiency • Safety • Security • Environmental (e.g., sound/pollution) • Weather related sensor development • Wake Vortex • Next generation approach • International leadership
Weather IPTNext Steps • Department budget guidance for respective FY07 budget formulation processes will be submitted from JPDO to Department OMB examiners • Action plan development underway • Outcomes/Alternatives to be identified
Weather IPTNext Steps • 2005 System Requirements (National Operational Requirements Document) • 2005-2007 Aviation Weather Policy Reviews • 2010 – 2012 First Phase Weather Information Network • 2015 Second Phase (Probabilistic information) • Ongoing: Decision support tool development and integration into national airspace system operational platforms
