Launch Project

Definition Phase Study : what it will deliver

Propose detailed specifications of the future system ...... set initial set initial indicative targets for Key Performance Areas indicative targets for Key Performance Areas

Impose ONE technical solution...... propose one single functional propose one single functional architecture architecture

Get commitment from all major players ... build a partnership build a partnership involving all stakeholdersinvolving all stakeholders

End with a fully validated concept element ..... define a detailed plan define a detailed plan for validation and testfor validation and test

But above all : propose a roadmap that is acceptable and supported as THE European way forward for ATM modernisation by all stakeholders of the Air Transport Industry

SESAR Definition Phase - The final Objective

One approved ATM Master Plan

• Commonly developed

• Achievable and ambitious

Basis for subsequent commitment, financing and implementation

… towards a true European federative and strategic project
