Essentially, our evaluation shows that FAA's current acquisition strategy for the Advanced Automation System does not adequately mitigate technical risks and does not provide for suitable operational simulation of the advanced automation features before the Department of Transportation commits to the multi-billion-dollar contract for full production. In addition, our evaluation shows that the Advanced Automation System, as currently planned, may not be economically justified. FAA's congressionally mandated benefit/cost analysis, recently initiated and scheduled for completion late next year, should provide more information on the issue.
