US FAA awarded Metron Aviation a $1.15 billion, 10-year NextGen contract, making it the largest single award to a small business in FAA history. The System Engineering 2020 (SE-2020) Research and Mission Analysis Set-Aside is the FAA's strategic program for implementing the NextGen satellite-based ATC system. "This program allows us to build upon our heritage of partnering with the FAA to pioneer innovative and transformational capabilities that help open America's skies," said CEO Dave Ellison.
