Company awarded $12 million contract to upgrade and enhance
paperless processing system
Integic Corporation, a
software applications firm out of Chantilly (VA) has been awarded a
$12 million, 3-year contract by the FAA to upgrade and enhance
software and systems it has developed to convert the FAA Civil
Aerospace Medical Institute into a paperless organization -- at
least where it concerns pilot and air traffic controller medical
certification.
CAMI, headed by Dr. Jon Jordan, processes medical paperwork for
more than 650,000 private, commercial and airline transport pilots
in the US, as well as 40,000 air traffic controllers. This new
contract is a continuation of a previous contract in which Integic
developed a document imaging and workflow system for CAMI. The
system is presently used as an automated, secure system for
handling all aspects of medical certification applications and
supporting paperwork.
So far, the system has
been loaded with millions of documents dating back to the 1960's,
in digital form. It currently allows medical examiners to submit
medical certification paperwork electronically. The new contract
calls for Integic to supply additional integration and enhancement
services as well as additional modules developed for the
system.
“The system makes all of it essentially a paperless
system, and lets FAA keep all paper in a data warehouse,”
said Paul Taltavull, Integic’s vice president and practice
area leader for civilian, state and local markets, in an article
published by Washington Technology. “Whenever a pilot has an
accident, the [National] Transportation Safety Board can have
access to the system instead of going to a warehouse in
Oklahoma.”
