AFWERX and NASA are collaborating to develop a digital Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) operations center, with ResilienX selected as the Civilian Commercialization Readiness Pilot Program (CCRPP) awardee to lead the effort.
The article highlights a core reality of scaled AAM and BVLOS operations: aircraft capability is only part of the equation. What’s still needed is dependable “backbone” infrastructure that helps multiple systems and stakeholders work together, consistently, safely, and with a clear path to operational approval and repeatability. Through this CCRPP project, ResilienX and an industry consortium will define and perform the initial integration of an AAM Operations Center designed to be scalable and tactical, supporting verification and validation of systems and sensors across uncrewed aircraft, eVTOL operations, and other emerging aviation technologies.
The piece also notes that the initial build-out will be done in collaboration with NUAIR at Syracuse Hancock International Airport, with the goal of testing, learning, and transitioning the model to additional locations by 2025. The program is supported by $4.8M in AFWERX and NASA funding and is planned to run through October 2025, with phased work that includes needs and task assessment, user-informed feature development, baseline integrations, and live demonstration activities.
