Booz Allen wins task order to support Volpe Center to develop FAA's NextGen EMS

Under the terms of the task order, Booz Allen will continue to partner with the Volpe Center in delivering innovative environmental solutions to reduce aviation's impact to the environment, the company said. "Overcoming aviation's environmental challenges requires the cooperation of diverse stakeholders including airports, airlines, manufactures, regulators, policy-makers, NGOs, and passengers," said Booz Allen Senior Vice President Doug Lane. "Booz Allen's FAA experts specialize in addressing the complex system-wide stakeholder relationships that are key to helping the FAA accomplish its NextGen implementation and integration objectives." Booz Allen will support the Volpe Center and the FAA in developing and implementing an EMS framework that is flexible, information driven, adaptive and efficient. The EMS framework will be a catalyst for stakeholder cooperation and help ensure that environmental protection is built into the operational aspects of NextGen, the company added.
