NAVAIR awarded a base plus four options firm-fixed price and cost plus fixed fee type contract at a maximum contract value of $5,505,689 to BGI, LLC headquartered in Dallas, Texas to produce the Flight Visualization and Data Analysis (FVDA) module for the Military Flight Operations Quality Assurance (MFOQA) program. The Department of the Navy (DON) is implementing a MFOQA program, based in part on the highly successful
FAA FOQA program. While both programs use digital flight data, downloaded routinely post-flight, to conduct detailed trending and analysis of aircraft and aircrew performance, the DON MFOQA program analyzes and replays data at multiple levels within the Naval Aviation Enterprise. Potential benefits include significant improvements in operational readiness, training, maintenance management and safety. MFOQA will provide a proactive means to highlight positive trends and to identify potential risks in time for corrective action.
