AWARDS
2019 NASA Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate (ARMD) Associate Administrator Awards



Leadership and Management Excellence

Winner
Ronald Johnson, ARC
Ronald Johnson served as manager for the Unmanned Aircraft System Traffic Management (UTM) project and guided it through the execution of a series of four Technology Capability Level demonstrations. He applied his expertise to ensure that systems engineering, integrated master schedules, risk management, and cost estimation practices were applied to the UTM project. With Johnson at the helm, the UTM project successfully completed a convincing demonstration for a novel form of air traffic management and established operating principles and performance standards for the burgeoning Urban Air Mobility community.



High Potentials

Winner
Dr. William Jeremy Coupe, ARC
Dr. Coupe is recognized for his demonstrated ability, technical expertise, and growing leadership skills in the field of complex data analysis in support of the Airspace Technology Demonstration 2 (ATD-2) subproject. His contributions greatly enhanced the quality of ATD-2 research and resulted in highly productive engagement with NASA leadership and ATD-2 partners. As an example, for the Integrated Arrival Departure Surface system, he performed analyses to diagnose undesired behaviors, refine the design, and create improvements. Notably, he developed and implemented a suite of automated tools to analyze key field data and generate daily reports of high interest.
