Description
Summary:The Federal Aviation Administration is working to modernize the systems used by air traffic controllers through the agency’s vision of the Next Generation Air Transportation System. These systems are acquired through the FAA’s Acquisition Management System (AMS) process. To date, human factors analysis is included in this process, though improvements can be made in the alignment of human systems integration principles with these systems engineering processes. This paper provides a recommended human systems integration framework to support air traffic management system design, and examines two potential cases in which the framework can be used to support the process.
