Summary

The Office of Inspector General plans to initiate an audit on the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) progress in meeting key provisions of the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012. Specifically, we will focus on those provisions related to advancing the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) and enhancing FAA’s management of its modernization efforts.  Our audit objectives will be to: (1) assess FAA’s progress in meeting the NextGen provisions prescribed in the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012; and (2) identify challenges that may prevent FAA from meeting the provisions of the Act.
