Key Performance Areas & Key Performance Indicators |
|
|
|
Target Key Performance Areas (KPAs) and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) have been developed by the FASTI team based on results from validation activities conducted inside and outside the EUROCONTROL Agency, Pioneer ANSP operational experience and subject matter expert opinion.
They have been reviewed, refined and approved by the FASTI Programme Steering Group (PSG).
The KPAs have been devised by the Programme team following the performance based approach adopted by ICAO and the SESAR Performance Framework, as described in “SESAR Definition Deliverable 2 – Air Transport Network the Performance Framework” (December 2006).
Within this SESAR work FASTI has been evaluated and declared a selected solution for the short term improvements baseline. 5 of the 11 SESAR KPA categories have been adopted for consideration by the PSG, an additional category “Harmonization of Operational Procedures and Practices” has been added for FASTI.

KPA categories and definitions |
|
The FASTI KPAs are defined as follows:
|
- Safety – the risk, prevention, occurrence and mitigation of air traffic accidents.
- Capacity – the ability of the system to cope with air traffic demand. Airspace capacity covers any individual or aggregated volume of airspace with European airspace. It relates to the throughput of that volume per unit of time for a give safety level. Network capacity is concerned with the overall network throughput taking into account the network effect of the airspace and airport capacity in function of traffic demand patterns.
- Cost Effectiveness – cost of ATM gate in relation to the volume of traffic managed.
- Efficiency - flight efficiency closing the gap between the user’s business trajectory and actual trajectory flown. Facilitation of reduced route length and optimum climb and descent profiles without ATC intervention.
- Environmental Sustainability – aims are to reduce adverse environmental impacts (average per flight) and to optimize operations accordingly.
- Harmonization of Operational Procedures and Practices – aims to act as an enabler for capacity enhancement.

The Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) will help FASTI in achieving its goal of making change in en route ATC through the definition and measurement of progress.
The KPIs selected:
- reflect the Programmes goals.
- are key to the Programmes success.
- are measurable.

The FASTI KPIs are categorised by KPA:
|
- Safety
- Reduce the number of airproxs and incidents by 50% where the cause is due to lack of controller vigilance, perception and aircrew error through use of MTCD, MONA enhancing conformance monitoring and SYSCO improving integrity of communication during coordination
- Increase safety as a direct function of controller workload reduction per aircraft, where capacity targets are not appropriate
- Capacity
- Increase network capacity by 15% at full scope implementation across the network
- Increase upper airspace sector capacity by up to 15%
- Increase lower airspace sector capacity by up to 10%
- Cost Effectiveness
- Reduce number of sectors by 10% either by an absolute reduction or leave combined for longer during the day
- Reduce number of controller hours by up to 5% per year per ACC through increased productivity, single person operation, multi sector use of MTCD
- Reduce implementation cost of new systems by 10% - e.g. use best practice for concept of operations, transition planning and training, common requirements, reduce fragmentation
- Efficiency
- Reduce flying time by up to 3% per flight per ACC through better planning and coordination, enabling optimum routing and minimizing tactical interventions, more direct preferred routing non constrained by tactical constrains. Fuel savings average of 62 litres per minute per aircraft-$30. (source IATA 14/2/07)
- Environmental Sustainability
- Reduce flying time by up to 3% per flight per ACC through better planning, enabling optimum routing and minimising tactical interventions. Reducing CO2 emissions by 160kg per aircraft (source IATA 14/2/07)
- Harmonization of Operational Procedures and Practices
- Remove up to 20% of ATC constraints within an ACC
- Reduce LOA longitudinal separation minima by 50% at all levels between adjacent ACC’s
- Reduce level capping by up to 50% within an ACC
