Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has been modernizing the flight service system since 1978 by providing pilots (primarily general aviation) with improved flight planning and filing, weather briefings, communications, and emergency services essential for safe and efficient flight. These improvements were accomplished through consolidation and automation. Flight service system modernization continues with FAA's planned procurement of the Operational and Supportability Implementation System (OASIS), a $128 million program which will replace the existing flight service automation system (FSAS). The FSAS is now an outdated system with supportability and capacity problems as well as an inability to incorporate future enhancements. As Federal budgets continue to decline, FAA needs to fully examine ways of reducing operations and acquisition costs. As noted in the Vice Presidents Third Report of the National Performance Review, Common Sense Government: Works Better and Costs Less, Americans want a Government that is more businesslike and better managed. The reinvention of Government begins by focusing on core mission competencies and service requirements. Reinvention must consider a wide range of options, including the consolidation, restructuring or reengineering of activities, and privatization options. The objective of this review is to determine whether FAA's acquisitions for automated flight services will meet users' needs in a cost-effective manner.
