About this award
This is a firm-fixed-price federal contract awarded by NASA's Langley Research Center to Bluehalo Labs, LLC (doing business as Intelligent Automation), a for-profit Subchapter S corporation. The contract, valued at $567,820.00, is for the development of an architectural method to describe a future National Airspace System (NAS) that can handle an unlimited number of flights, including small UAS, large UAS, commercial aircraft, general aviation, and other aircraft types. The method will use standard techniques to develop requirements, determine trade-off curves, perform sensitivity analysis, and compute safety and performance margins, with the initial focus on a sectorless airspace design that maintains a safety margin of one incident per one billion flights. This contract is not a set-aside and is part of NASA's "Developing a Safe Architecture for a Million-Flight National Airspace Systems (NAS)" major program. Intelligent Automation has a track record of delivering innovative solutions to federal agencies through various contract and grant awards, including work on the STARGATE space situational awareness software system for the Air Force.
Description
NASA research announcement (NRA) - developing a safe architecture for a million-flight national airspace systems (NAS) - the scope of this contract is to develop an architectural method for describing a future national airspace system (NAS) that can handle an unlimited number of flights. The method uses standard techniques to develop and elucidate requirements, determine pareto-optimal tradeoff curves, perform sensitivity analysis, and compute safety and performance margins. The project shall initially populate the method with a sectorless airspace design, where a safety margin of one incident every one billion flights (or less) is maintained through management of airspace density. The proposed architecture applies to all altitudes and all aircraft types, including small UAS, large UAS, traditional commercial aircraft, general aviation, lighter-than-airships, space launches and RE-entries, orbiting vehicles, and personal aircraft.
