AI Contract Overview

The Federal Aviation Administration is soliciting information through a Request for Information (RFI Number 697DCK-26-RFI-RDPP) to establish the Radar Data Pilot Program (RDPP), which aims to provide qualified state, local, tribal, and territorial (SLTT) entities with access to sensitive National Airspace System (NAS) radar data feeds containing Sensitive Unclassified Information (SUI) and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). The program seeks to enable or enhance Air Traffic Management (ATM) and Unmanned Aircraft System Traffic Management (UTM) services, particularly for operations above 400 feet AGL, and to test technologies that support safe and efficient integration of unmanned systems into federal airspace. Respondents must demonstrate a lawful government “need to know” for the data, with clear use cases and detailed Concept of Operations (CONOPs) addressing business goals, proposed radar data applications, geographic scope, technical approaches, operating procedures, key performance metrics, airspace plans, data systems, network connections, data management protocols, stakeholder engagement, and test timelines. All submissions must be limited to ten pages, submitted in PDF or Microsoft Office 365 format, and emailed by 3:00 PM ET on July 27, 2026, to the designated FAA contacts with a specific subject line. Participation requires execution of a legally binding Other Transaction Agreement and Interagency Security Agreement, along with compliance with stringent data protection mandates including NIST SP 800-171 standards, 32 CFR Part 2002, 49 CFR Parts 15 and 1520, and FAA Order 1600.75. Personnel must undergo criminal history records checks and other vetting, and all data access must be confined to secure enclaves with no sharing permitted with external UAS operators. The FAA will evaluate responses through its NAS Data Release Board using pass/fail criteria focused on functionality, operational feasibility, legal compliance, and data security readiness. The FAA will not compensate respondents for costs associated with preparing submissions, nor will this RFI lead to a procurement contract; the RDPP itself is scheduled to sunset on October 1, 2028.
