This Acquisition Workforce Strategy provides the blueprint for building and sustaining a high-performing acquisition workforce. The purpose and focus of the Acquisition Workforce Strategy is to ensure FAA has a stable cadre of federal employees and maintains core in-house capabilities necessary to successfully manage FAA's acquisition objectives. While recognizing the contribution and role of our contractors, this Strategy focuses on the federal workforce only. The Acquisition Management System (AMS) establishes policy and guidance for all aspects of lifecycle acquisition management at FAA. Acquisition professionals rely on the AMS every day as they conceptualize, plan, execute and oversee the development and implementation of the FAA's mission systems, services and technologies. It is important that FAA acquisition professionals understand and apply the AMS and its unique capabilities and flexibilities. The AMS defines how FAA manages its resources - money, people and assets - to fulfill its mission. The objectives of the policy are to increase the quality, reduce the time, manage the risk and minimize the cost of delivering safe and secure services to the aviation community and flying public. Acquisition management policy promotes these objectives through partnership among service providers and customers to ensure FAA plans, programs and budgets address priority aviation needs.
