SLED Opportunity · FLORIDA · ORLANDO AVIATION
AI Summary
Orlando Aviation seeks a sole source upgrade to its proprietary AirTera Access Control Computer Based Training system, adding languages and new branding to ensure TSA compliance for employee badging training.
Procurement Details: The Aviation Authority is currently using AirTera's Access Control Computer Based Training (CBT) system. This system is used to train all new employees and retrain all currently badged employees to ensure compliance with TSA 1542 regulations, outlined in 49 C.F.R. Part 1542 (SIDA and non-movement area training). This upgrade includes adding foreign languages, incorporates the new badge design and the Aviation Authority's new branding.
Estimated Value: $249,000
Term (Years): 12 Months
Vendor: NATACS Acquisition LLC DBA AirTera
Justification: The AirTera CBT system is proprietary. AirTera is the original designer and installer of the Aviation Authority’s existing CBT system and AirTera has the technical knowledge to support and upgrade the system. AirTera hosts and maintains the system on their servers, and it is integrated with the Aviation Authority's badging identification management system.
Because the AirTera CBT system is proprietary, other contractors would not be able to access the information necessary to support and upgrade this system. Therefore, the use of other companies to perform this work may jeopardize the CBT system's integrity in its entirety.
A new competitive procurement will require replacement of the existing CBT system, which would be extremely cost prohibitive and disruptive to the badging process.
