Federal Aviation Administration

OVERVIEW

When the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) opened a new eastern region headquarters in Queens, New York, their building demanded an efficient management system synced with the human and informational flow necessary for operating a trans-national aviation service. TEC Systems guided the FAA from step one to take-off, designing and installing a LonWorks® building automation platform uniquely integrated to the FAA’s needs. With over 684 network connections and WonderWare In-Touch software, the system seamlessly manages a constant data-stream, allowing the FAA and its employees to safely and securely manage your travel.
