AED’s Vision and MissionAED’s Vision and Mission
• Vision: “Soldier-focused, world-recognized leader in airworthiness and aviation engineering, and the strategic partner of choice of the Army aviation materiel enterprise.”
• Mission: “Deliver responsive airworthiness solutions throughout the system life cycle. Sustain the leadership and engineering expertise necessary to provide valued products to our aviation customers”
• Three Key Points I continue to drive home with the workforce and our customers.
– 1. We take our mission seriously, we don’t take ourselves seriously.
– 2. Our job is to get our customers to their finish line.
– 3. We want our customers to want us on their teams, not have to have us on their teams.
• and the key to successful implementation….

TransformingTransforming
• As a necessity due the Army’s role with MI-17 and furthered now with the adoption of DOD Directive 5030.61…– AED’s role now includes validating/verifying
processes rather than conducting detailed engineering data analysis when determining airworthiness acceptability of foreign airworthiness authorities.

WHAT LIES AHEADWHAT LIES AHEAD
• The Challenges– Sequestration isn’t going away anytime soon
• Rep McKeon’s comments just this week…• Our customer budgets are shrinking
– 80+ % of our money comes from our customers…• Continued “quality of life” pressures• Hiring freeze – so struggling to build the bench• With that said:
– AED will continue to make the choice to be happy and motivated.
– We are a proud organization that looks forward to continuing to provide quality and timely products to our customers.
