- Description
- Recovery This notice is provided for information purposes only. NASA LaRCintends to issue a fixed-price contract to Purdue University entitled A Concept forFlexible Operations and Optimized Traffic Into Metroplex Regions. This competitiveaction will be funded by the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act (ARRA). The awardresults from a competitive selection under the National Aeronautics and SpaceAdministration (NASA) Headquarters released NASA Research Announcement (NRA) forfoundational research in support of the Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate (ARMD),entitled 'Research Opportunities in Aeronautics (ROA) 2009 under NNH09ZEA001N, Amendment1, NextGen Airportal Project. The NextGen-Airportal Project works in closecollaboration with the NextGen-Airspace Project to conduct airspace and Airportalfoundational research and discipline-based technology.The project focuses on NASAstechnical expertise and world-class facilities to enable the highest possible efficiencyin the use of gates, taxiways, runways, metroplex (a group of two or more adjacentairports whose arrival and departure operations are highly interdependent) airspace andother Airportal resources. The project is researching, developing, demonstrating, andvalidating operational concepts, proof-of-concept systems, algorithms, technologies,tools, and operational procedures designed to maximize capacity and throughput in theAirportal environment while enabling associated elements of the Next Generation AirTransportation System (NextGen) as defined by the Joint Planning and Development Office. NextGen-Airportal Project research focus areas are the following: Safe and EfficientSurface Operations (SESO), Coordinated Arrival and Departure Operations Management(CADOM), and Airportal and Metroplex Integration (AMI). SESO conducts research to managetraffic on the airport surface (gates, taxiways, and runways) safely and efficiently toenable maximum throughput and capacity in the airport environment. CADOM focuses onconcepts and technologies needed to mitigate operational constraints to maximizing singleand multiple airport capacity. AMI focuses on management of metroplex operations,integration of work across the Projects technical areas, and crosscutting research(e.g., human/system integration and concept analyses for portfolio management). Theresearch focus area for this contract is AMI. The research will investigate, develop andanalyze operational concepts that mitigate issues specific to the metroplex domain, orthat take advantage of unique characteristics of metroplex airports to improveefficiencies. The referenced solicitation is a broad agency announcement as specified in FAR 35.016 andNFS 1835.016. Additional information regarding the 2009 ROA solicitation can be found athttp://nspires.nasaprs.com/external/solicitations/summary.do?method =init&solId={8AA62753-0F6B-3791-4A43-3DEF562FA257}&path=open (ROA-2009 CompleteSolicitation as of November 24, 2009). This announcement will not result in a Request forProposal; this announcement is for informational purposes only.
