Houston we may have a problem -

In follow up to:

Gold Coast airport on frogs, fogs & PFOS bogs.

42.Mr Hall was an impressive witness. He has a breadth of experience that enabled him to speak authoritatively on the detail of airport operations, air traffic control and navigation aids. His evidence in relation to the proposed further developments at the airport and in relation to the installation of the ILS infrastructure on Crown land was not directly contradicted. His evidence was credible, reasoned and carefully explained; there is no basis for rejecting his expert evidence.

    
Fancy that a ASA executive that might actually know what he is talking about - probably just signed his death warrant...

 Today for some strange reason the ANAO have notified that the ASA audit report has been delayed and will now be tabled sometime in April... :

Conduct of the OneSKY Tender
Due to table: April, 2017


Portfolio: Infrastructure and Regional Development; Defence; Finance
Entity: Airservices Australia; Department of Defence; Department of Finance

The objective of this audit is to assess whether the OneSKY tender was conducted so as to provide value with public resources and achieve required timeframes for the effective replacement of the existing air traffic management platforms.

Audit criteria

1. Was the OneSKY tender process based on a sound business case and appropriate Defence, Airservices and joint governance arrangements?
   
2. Did the tender process result in the transparent selection of a successful tender that provided the best whole-of-life value for money solution at an acceptable level of cost, technical and schedule risk, consistent with the Request for Tender?
   
3. Did negotiations with the successful tenderer result in constructive contractual arrangements that ensured continuity of safe air traffic services, the managed insertion of an optimum system of systems outcome within required timeframes, and demonstrable value?
