COST/BENEFIT ANALYSIS OF CNS/ATM IN FIJI

(Presented by Fiji)

Information Paper

SUMMARY

This information paper provides a summary of the ongoing CNS/ATM activities implemented by Fiji, such as FANS 1, CPDLC and ADS, GPS, flight data processing (FDP), air situation display (ASD) systems, etc. In particular, it highlights some of the key factors considered in carrying out its cost/benefit analysis (CBA) and its subsequent decisions made to progressively implement elements of its CNS/ATM. While it recognizes that there is an ICAO Cost/Benefit Assessment Model that can be used as guidance by States, there are many other factors from within and outside that may influence the decisions to procure and implement systems.
