The following is a summary of the ASSC requirement as previously communicated by the Government via previous public announcements posted in the Federal Aviation Administration Contract Opportunities (FAACO) website: The Airport Surface Surveillance Capability (ASSC) is the proposed acquisition for the FAA ATO organization and supports the objectives of the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen). The ASSC establishes the requirement to integrate a cooperative airport ground domain surveillance system by leveraging Automatic Dependent Surveillance Broadcast (ADS-B) technology within the architecture of the ASSC. Among its benefits, aircraft will be able to fly at reduced separation while maintaining current levels of safety when using ADS-B. Thus ASSC, coupled with ASD-B, will improve safety, operational efficiency, and situational awareness at FAA airports Under this procurement, nine (9) Airport Surface Detection Equipment-Model 3 (ASDE-3) systems will be replaced with ASSC. 1.San Francisco International (SFO) Airport (Key Site w/First Article requirements)2.Cleveland/Hopkins International (CLE) Airport (Key Site)3.Andrews Air Force Base (ADW)4.Anchorage International (ANC) Airport 5.Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International (CVG) Airport6.Kansas City International (MCI) Airport7.New Orleans International (MSY) Airport8.Portland International (PDX) Airport9.Pittsburgh International (PIT) Airport An Option requirement for one (1) to eight (8) ASSC systems may be exercised as part of the anticipated contract award.
