JPDO Integrated Product Teams (IPT)
• Consists of government and industry members,
under the direction of a government lead
• 8 different IPTs
– Airports, Agile, Environment, Global Harmonization,
Safety, Security, Shared Situational Awareness and
Weather
• Currently 222 active industry members from over
100 companies and organizations

Transitioning to the new JPDO
• New structure
– Instead of 8 IPTs, 9 working groups (WG)
• Aircraft, Air Navigation Services, Airports, Environment,
Global, Net Centric Operations, Safety, Security and Weather
– Made up of joint industry and government participants
(carried over from the IPT structure)
– Working groups lead by co-chairs from both
government and industry
