The Federal Aviation Act of 1958 gives the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) the responsibility to carry out safety programs to ensure the safest, most efficient aerospace system in the world. The FAA is responsible for:

•     Regulating civil aviation to promote safety;
•     Encouraging and developing civil aeronautics, including new aviation technology;
•     Developing and operating a system of air traffic control and navigation for both civil and military aircraft;
•     Developing and carrying out programs to control aircraft noise and other environmental effects of civil aviation; and
•     Regulating United States (U.S.) commercial space transportation.

One of the programs that helps the FAA fulfill these responsibilities is the Aeronautical Center Security Management System (ACSMS), which is used by security forces to authenticate individuals attempting to access the Aeronautical Center. The business functions provided by this Information System are:

•     Temporary Access Badge creation. The system creates temporary access badges for federal personnel upon hire.
•     Key inventory. The system maintains an inventory of magnetic and metal keys issued to personnel for access to varying parts of the facility.
•     Parking Permit Tracking. The system tracks vehicle information associated with parking permits issued to federal employees and contractors.
•     Visitor and vehicles not covered by permit tracking.

This system relates to the mission of the FAA by providing the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center (MMAC) security forces the ability to verify the identity of individuals entering the facility which ensures that only authorized personnel are admitted.  

Title 49, US Code, Transportation, gives the Department of Transportation's Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) the responsibility to carry out safety programs to ensure the safest, most efficient aerospace system in the world. FAA is responsible for:

• Regulating civil aviation to promote safety;
• Encouraging and developing civil aeronautics, including new aviation technology;
• Developing and operating a system of air traffic control and navigation for both civil and military aircraft;
• Developing and carrying out programs to control aircraft noise and other environmental effects of civil aviation; and
• Regulating United States (U.S.) commercial space transportation.

One of the programs that helps the FAA fulfill these responsibilities is the Enterprise Architecture and Solutions Environment (EASE). The business process for EASE is the mainframe hosting of Departmental systems. EASE directly supports FAA administration and program areas described above with a full range of general-purpose computing services on a fee-for-service basis. EASE is in the operations/maintenance life cycle phase of the system.

A reporting instrument that helps the FAA fulfill this mission is the Reports, Analysis, and Distribution System (RADS). RADS is a Web-based application, in that it uses the Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) web browser as the main user interface. RADS allows authorized personnel to access a data warehouse and produce reports. The reports are grouped according to source systems as follows:

• Cost Accounting System (CAS) Reports,
• CAS/Labor Distribution (LDR) Reports,
• CAS/LDR Project and Activity Dictionary (PAD) Reports,
• Advanced Reporting System (ARS), and
• Acquisition of Various Equipment and Supplies (SAVES) Reports

One of the programs that help the FAA fulfill this mission is the Office of Financial Services Data Loss Prevention System (DLPS), which automates the management of internal controls and improves the efficiency of the FAA's compliance processes. Symantec's Data Loss Prevention software automates the scanning and monitoring of sensitive data use within the Office of Assistant Administrator for Financial Services (ABA) and improves FAA's compliance with the handling of sensitive data. Symantec DLP monitors all ABA workstations, file shares and application/database servers. The scanning and monitoring focuses on these six subject areas:

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), within the Department of Transportation (DOT), has been given the responsibility to carry out safety programs to ensure the safest, most efficient aerospace system in the world. The FAA is responsible for:

• Regulating civil aviation to promote safety;
• Encouraging and developing civil aeronautics, including new aviation technology;
• Developing and operating a system of air traffic control and navigation for both civil and military aircraft;
• Developing and carrying out programs to control aircraft noise and other environmental effects of civil aviation; and
• Regulating U.S. commercial space transportation.

One of the programs that help FAA fulfill this mission is PRISM, which supports multiple purchasing sites, electronic routing and approval, requisitioning, electronic notifications, contract management, and post award processing and closeout. PRISM system architecture allows it to integrate and communicate seamlessly with existing systems such as financial or inventory. PRISM software is directly integrated with DOT's core accounting system, DELPHI. Financial data is exchanged with the Logistical Information System (LIS) server in Kansas City. The data exchanged involves hundreds of application program interface (API) data elements, attributes and associated mappings.

The safety of the nations flying public depends, in large part, on the aviation industry's compliance with safety regulations and the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) enforcement of those regulations when violations occur. FAA has a variety of enforcement mechanisms that it may use to respond to violations including administrative actions (such as issuing a warning notice or a letter of correction that includes the corrective actions the violator must take) and legal sanctions (such as levying a fine or suspending or revoking a pilot or other FAA-issued certificate). FAA plans to revise how it uses these enforcement tools over the next several years to target the type of enforcement actions so that they will be based on an assessment of the intent of the violator and the risks to safety.

The modernized EIS system would use a web interface for all of the above components, and also support the Paperwork Reduction and E-Government Act priorities. EIS modernization is in the early planning stages.
