Agenda

YesterdayTodayTomorrow…and the challenges along the way

28 May 2013

Background – up until 2009

Low involvement from LFV in the work with drafting, reviewing and commenting the preparatory ADQ IR work due to resource constraints within the LFV AIM domain.…leading to lower awareness about ADQ IR and its impacts within LFV AIM than what could be expected.

28 May 2013

Background – 2010

With the actual release of the ADQ IR (73/2010) LFV AIM becomes more aware of the impact it will have on LFV and other stakeholdersADQ awareness work within LFV (mainly towards management) led by LFV AIM is initiated but the outcome of this work is rather scarce – message received but probably not understood to the full extent.No additional funding to really start preparing for ADQ

Available funding in 2010 for ADQ preparation and implementation(in % of expected total cost)

28 May 2013

Background – 2011

Awareness work continues within LFV (mainly towards management) led by LFV AIM but still the outcome of this work is poorADQ awareness meeting led by LFV AIM with the major airport owner Still no additional funding to really start preparing for ADQ

28 May 2013

Background – Q1-Q2 2012

Finally(!) LFV internal awareness work pays off and an understanding about a possible major impact on AIS operations is now on all levelsA pre-study is initiated (and funded) to:

Analyse and interpret the ADQ IR to sort out ambiguities and questionsTo further detail/explain the requirements from an LFV perspectiveCreate LFV ADQ IR implementation planInvestigate possible partnerships/cooperations for the ADQ implementationA business case to describe possible future new businesses as a result of ADQ implementationEstimate a total cost for ADQ implementation

28 May 2013

Background – Q3-Q4 2012

The result of the pre-study’s business case and ADQ implementation cost estimate gives LFV management the hick-ups – potentially BIG investment neededQuestions arise regarding LFV’s designationfrom the state to perform AIS(AIS open for competition or not?)Uncertainties regarding the riskthat another company can get thedesignation to perform AIS in Swedenin near future hampers full funding decision

28 May 2013

Background – Q1 2013

Continued uncertainties regarding AIS designation open for competition hampers full funding decisionA smaller part of funding approved to continue planning activities but no investments…meanwhile time flies…

Available funding up until Q1 2013 for ADQ prep. and implementation(in % of expected total cost)

Current status

Approximately 5 Full Time Equivalents (FTE) needed for ADQ implementation from now and coming years, dealing with:

Project managementService Level Agreements (SLA)AwarenessTrainingArchitecture and requirementsQuality and Safety Management (QMS/SMS)System adaption and verificationSafety and Security IAIP Production Expertise

…but these 5 FTE need to be distributed on a larger number of individuals, 10+ “core” and 10+ “ad hoc”

Main challenges, so far and upcoming

DesignationFundingInformation ownershipSLA level of detailObstaclesStaff involvement in parallel with “daily production”ADQ maturity in the aviation community.

How to ensure that all information triggered by a certain event gets updated. (e.g. VOR goes down (CNS provider), procedures affected (airport) – one event but different information owners, etc…)Dependency on other stakeholders progress (or lack thereof…)

Annotation of non-ADQ-compliant information in AIP and database

28 May 2013

Main challenges, so far and upcoming

Separation between regulating authority (who can also be an information owner/data originator) and AIS provider achieved in theory but not 100% in practice.

AIS still doing interpretations of regulatory text instead of just publishing what is provided from the regulator. Who’s the information owner? Who approves what…?

Clean up our system architecture
