About this opportunity
The Federal Aviation Administration's Air Traffic Organization Program Management Office is seeking broad technical and professional services through the Program Management Office Technical Assistance Contract (PTAC). This comprehensive contract will support operations across the PMO's five directorates, encompassing 28 functional task areas including systems engineering, software engineering, human factors, information security, strategic planning, program management, and various specialized aviation technology domains. The services will support the National Airspace System modernization efforts and require technical knowledge in air traffic management automation, airspace design, avionics systems, communications, enterprise architecture, and program management. The opportunity is classified under NAICS code 541330 for Engineering Services and PSC code R425 for Professional Engineering/Technical Support. The original response date for the Sources Sought/Request for Information was October 13, 2025, with vendors required to submit capabilities statements in PDF format not exceeding 20 pages using at least 12-point font.
This opportunity features a partial small business set-aside designation, meaning the final acquisition strategy will depend on responses received to the sources sought notice and could result in either unrestricted competition or a dedicated set-aside for small business concerns. The FAA is specifically seeking statements of interest from large businesses, small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, and 8(a) certified firms. While no specific contract values or budget ranges are disclosed in the available documentation, the scope suggests a substantial multi-year engagement given the comprehensive nature of the 28 functional areas and support requirements across all PMO directorates. Performance will occur at both contractor facilities and designated FAA facilities as specified in individual task orders. No incumbent contractors are identified in the available materials, and the acquisition strategy remains to be finalized based on market response to this sources sought inquiry.
Notice text
ATO is a Line of Business (LOB) within the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The ATO mission is to provide a safe, efficient, responsive air transportation system that serves the nation and supports the global aviation community. ATO performs its mission through eight service units. The FAA PMO is one of eight Service Units that comprise the FAA’s ATO. The PMO was formed to bring the majority of the FAA’s major acquisition programs, business solutions, and infrastructure programs under one umbrella, allowing for better cost controls and economies of scale.
The PMO participates in National Airspace System (NAS) management, development, engineering, and deployment activities. There are five directorates within the PMO: PMO Integrated Services and Analysis (AJM-1), Air Traffic Systems (ATS) (AJM-2), Enterprise Services (AJM-3), Surveillance Services (AJM-4), and Telecommunications Integrated Services Office (TISO) (AJM-5).
AJM-1 provides customer service across the PMO with a wide range of expertise implementing practical solutions to enable the successful implementation and sustainment of NAS and Mission Support programs. AJM-1 provides one-stop shopping for resource management services; acquisition support; program health management; and planning, analysis, and integration support.
The Air Traffic Systems Directorate (AJM-2) is responsible for developing, deploying and operating systems that deliver services to all segments of the NAS, including systems that support decision-making for traffic flow managers, and systems that provide services directly to pilots for improved safety and efficiency.
The Enterprise Services Directorate (AJM-3) develops, acquires, deploys, maintains, sustains, and improves navigation, communications, weather, and aeronautical information products and services for the NAS.
Surveillance Services Directorate (AJM-4) focuses on the surveillance systems that provide the complete picture for operations taking place in the NAS. These systems range from traditional ground based radars to more advanced Global Positioning System (GPS) based positioning systems.
Telecommunications Integrated Services Office (AJM-5) maintains and deploys all the infrastructure necessary to ensure seamless and modern telecommunications services for the NAS. The office is responsible for acquisition, engineering, testing, business and program management, and integrated scheduling for all FAA telecommunications systems, products, and services at over 4800 sites.
To achieve the Agency Strategic Priority goals and organizational mission objectives, professional and technical support services are required to support the existing and future NAS initiatives. The Statement of Work (SOW) sets forth a broad set of support services required to support operations in the PMO and other FAA lines of business (LOB). Support is required for, but not limited to, the following mission critical programs: Air Traffic Management; Decision Support Systems; Surveillance Services; Terminal Field Operations; EnRoute and Oceanic second Level Engineering; Communications, Information & Network Programs; Navigation Programs; Aviation Weather and Aeronautical Services; Data Communications, Cyber Security, Cloud support, Research and Development (R&D) Telecommunications, and other programs throughout the FAA. These programs require ongoing maintenance, upkeep and enhancements through transition, integration, and implementation of the NAS modernization and transition to the next generation Air Traffic System.
