- Description
- The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) is a safety-critical system that provides accurate, precise, navigation and landing guidance to equipped aircraft in any weather. The WAAS augments the United States Government's Global Positioning System (GPS) and Standard Positioning Service (SPS). The primary mission of the WAAS is to provide a means for air navigation during all phases of flight in the National Airspace System (NAS); departure, en route and approach. The WAAS augments GPS with the following three services: a ranging function, which improves availability and reliability; differential GPS corrections, which improve accuracy; and integrity monitoring, which improves safety. The FAA is seeking a contractor that can provide senior systems engineering support for the WAAS. Interested parties should submit a Capability Statement and complete the FAA's Business Declaration Form. All responses are due no later than 11:00 AM Eastern Daylight Savings Time on November 18, 2011.
