DOT OIG Seeks Further FAA Work on Controller Training Contract
The original controller training contract, issued to Raytheon, was awarded in 2008 and updated in 2010.

The FAA has not fully implemented recommendations from the Department of Transportation’s Office of Inspector General (OIG) related to the Controller Training Contract (CTC) that is part of a plan to train new air traffic controllers. According to the OIG report, the FAA needs to hire more than 11,000 new controllers through Fiscal Year 2021 to replace upcoming retirements.
