Capabilities
AVTS delivers one thing: senior FAA executive judgment applied to the programs, decisions, and integrations that determine whether NAS modernization succeeds or stalls. The advisory model is intentionally narrow. No engineering bench to staff. No products on a price sheet. No OEM relationships to navigate around. Just direct senior engagement on the questions that matter most — delivered by the principal, not handed off.
Our Capability Areas

Operational Risk & Integration Advisory
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.

Executive Advisory & Teaming Support
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.
