Twelve Years of Delivering Safety and Service Excellence to 1.6 Million ATC Operations Earns Serco Prestigious FAA Contract Tower Service Award
RESTON, VA–(EMWNews – July 30, 2008) – Serco Inc. was awarded the Willie F. Card
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Contract Tower Service Award for
delivering air traffic control safety and service excellence at the Phoenix
Goodyear Tower in Arizona. Serco has been awarded this honor four of the
past six years.
The fourth busiest single runway operation in the United States, the
Phoenix Goodyear Tower successfully managed more than 190,000 error-free
operations in 2007, representing an 86% increase in traffic over the
previous two years. Serco’s Air Traffic Controllers reported an
unprecedented zero errors in more than 1.6 million operations since they
assumed responsibility for the tower’s operations from the FAA in 1996.
The Phoenix Goodyear Tower was recognized #1 among a pool of 240 Federal
Contract Towers.
“The Goodyear Tower manages a blend of general aviation and military
operations and is a high intensity training environment that encounters a
lot of foreign student pilots,” said Serco’s Vice President of
Transportation Mike Henry. “This tower is representative of our commitment
to safety and customer service excellence.”
Previous Serco Willie F. Card Award tower winners include Lewiston, ID
(LWS) in 2003, Williams Gateway (IWA) in 2004 and Jackson Hole, WY (JAC) in
2005.
Nominations for the Willie F. Card Award are reviewed by a panel of judges
consisting of one representative from the FAA Contract Tower Program Office
in Washington, United States Contract Tower Association Policy Board,
National Business Aviation Association, National Air Transportation
Association and the Regional Airline Association.
