4 Federal Aviation Administration Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System March 27, 2007 The Global ATM Operational Concept Endorsed by 35 th Session of the Assembly Vision: –Globally interoperable –All users & flight phases –Safe, economic, environmental & secure ATM user expectations are drivers for change, requiring: –Safety case –Business case Foundation for ATM System Requirements

5 Federal Aviation Administration Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System March 27, 2007 Global ATM Requirements Performance-based ATM is central What does this mean? –Justify changes (operational improvements) to the ATM system with their performance impact –Post-implementation monitoring –Balance the multiple aspects of performance –Guided by community expectations The Global ATM Operational Concept envisions a system that is service oriented, performance driven and predicated on the guiding principles described in the OCD (Global Air Traffic Management Operational Concept, Doc 9854). To fulfill this vision, the ATM system shall: a. Ensure that performance forms the basis for all ATM system development; b. Treat performance as a whole, that is, considering all the ATM community expectations and their relationships;

6 Federal Aviation Administration Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System March 27, 2007 ATM Community Expectations Access and Equity Capacity Cost-effectiveness Efficiency Environment Flexibility Global Interoperability Participation by the ATM Community Predictability Safety Security Indicators ATM Community Expectations Key Performance Areas Objectives

7 Federal Aviation Administration Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System March 27, 2007 Overview of Performance Process Expectations lead to targets Current performance is measured Future performance is estimated from forecasts Performance gaps are addressed via additional operational improvements Performance is monitored Plan is adjusted More detail in subsequent talk Expectations Objectives & Indicators Targets Current performance Future performance Address Gaps Monitor

8 Federal Aviation Administration Worldwide Symposium on Performance of the Air Navigation System March 27, 2007 Level of Consistency Variations in expectations & actual performance –Across time –Location –ATM community member System is tailored to best meet needs of individual locations at specific times Harmonized on: –Consistent definitions –Measurement, data, and estimation –Consistent performance approach It is critical that the metrics be applied uniformly across the total system, i.e. that in a series of linked systems (regions, homogenous areas, etc.) they will be the same, while the actual required level of performance may be variable. (From Doc. 9854)
