Contract Solidifies The Business Relationship Between Hilton Software And The FAA
Hilton Software has won a $4M contract from the FAA to provide continued software and data excellence in support of the FAA's Flight Program Operations.
"We are humbled to have won the confidence of the Federal Aviation Administration culminating in this award. Hilton Software has always been a company focused on safety. It is an honor to continue working with the FAA's Flight Program Operations to improve the safety of flight for all pilots by ensuring the integrity of instrument approaches and airway procedures that constitute our National Airspace System infrastructure. We are proud to support our United States Department of Defense, Federal Aviation Administration, and Government Foreign Partners around the globe." said Dr. Goldstein, CEO and Founder of Hilton Software.
The contract is part of an effort to ensure that FAA's Flight Program Operations have the tools they need to safely and accurately analyze and assess new and current Instrument Approach Procedures on the ground and in-flight with regards to terrain, vertical obstructions, missed approach procedures and other aspects and factors influencing the safety of flight.
Dr. Goldstein (pictured) explains that this is a, "...contract with the United States Department of Defense (specifically the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA)) to develop their multi-platform Aero App (aeroapp.info). We have added some features for the FAA into NGA's Aero App over the past year or so, but this contract solidifies the business relationship between Hilton Software and the FAA for the next five years."
Hilton Software's AS9100 Rev D certification and Quality Management System ensure that its software and data are of the highest quality and integrity.
