The advisor who sees what the program isn't telling you.
Senior NAS advisory for federal agencies and prime contractors. Vendor-neutral. No products. No staff augmentation. Just the judgment that comes from 38 years inside the FAA.
Capabilities
AVTS exists because of the FAA, not in spite of it. Federal agencies and prime contractors call AVTS when they need someone who has been on the government side of NAS decisions — and will tell them what is actually true, not what sounds good in a briefing.
-
Identifies the gap between a programmatically sound decision and an operationally viable one. Workforce stress, configuration dependencies, cross-LOB friction, and labor dynamics all shape what’s actually possible — AVTS maps that gap and the path to close it.
-
Government-side visibility across NAS modernization in automation, communications, navigation, surveillance, data systems, and facilities infrastructure. Supports federal buyers and prime contractors with proposal narrative, program review preparation, and decision framework development.
-
Senior-only engagement model. Dave executes every assignment personally — no junior staff layer, no handoff. Available for sources sought response, teaming agreements, proposal SME support, and post-award program advisory.
About
American Veteran Technical Solutions is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business providing aviation domain insight, operational integration perspective, programmatic oversight, and executive-level support to federal agencies and prime contractors.
AVTS is led by David E. Spencer, a retired Federal Aviation Administration executive with 38 years of federal service, including 34 years at the FAA, progressing from entry-level electronics technician to the Senior Executive Service (SES). With more than a decade in FAA executive leadership—both in the field and in Washington, D.C., AVTS brings firsthand understanding of how decisions made at every level affect the NAS in practice.
We operate at the intersection of FAA domain knowledge, modernization experience, and operational governance, helping organizations reduce risk, improve clarity, and move forward with confidence.
Most advisors in this space get time, scope, and cost right. What they consistently miss is everything that happens when the technology meets the operation. The human integration surface — NAS modernization is implemented into a workforce, not a system. The political and labor dimension — FAA Lines of Business, staff offices, NATCA, PASS, and AFSCME are structural forces that shape what is possible and on what timeline.
