Federal Aviation Awards
CALL FOR NOMINATIONS
The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), which sponsors the Interagency Committee for Aviation Policy (ICAP), is proud to announce the Ninth Annual Federal Aviation Awards to recognize and publicize excellence in Federal aviation during the period of January 1 - December 31, 2008. We are calling for nominations for the best Federal Aviation Programs (Large and Small Categories) and the best Federal Aviation Professionals (Managerial/Official Category and Operational/Support Category).
Federal agencies are encouraged to share how your management practices have made your aviation activities safer and more efficient and effective during 2008. Tell us how professional excellence in your flight program translated into success in carrying out your agency's mission . Let us know about your outstanding achievements in aircraft management/administration, operations, maintenance, training, and safety. Nominate your star performers in both managerial-level personnel and operational and support crew personnel.
Again this year, GSA will honor one winner in each of the following categories:
- Large Program (more than 20 aircraft and Commercial Aviation Services (CAS), as applicable);
- Small Program (20 or fewer aircraft and CAS, as applicable);
- Aviation Professional (Managerial/Official); and
- Aviation Professional (Operational/Support).
An independent panel of aviation experts will judge the entries.
In partnership with the ICAP, GSA is committed to promoting continuous improvement in Federal aviation management. As always, the success of this awards program depends on your participation. We look forward to receiving your nominations, which are due by May 1, 2009.
Remember, in order to nominate a program or individual for the Federal Aviation Award your agency must hold, or apply for and receive, the Gold Standard Certificate prior to May 1, 2009.
THE CEREMONY
The award recipients will be recognized at a ceremony during FedFleet 2009. The ceremony is scheduled to take place Wednesday, July 28, 2009 in Chicago, Illinois. More detailed information about the event will be posted later.
