ITF fosters innovation by integrating key stakeholders to identify and demonstrate emerging solutions that increase security effectiveness and efficiency, improve passenger experience, and to deliver solutions that secure the freedom of movement throughout the nation’s transportation system.
"The Innovation Task Force is collaborating with industry, airlines, airports and equipment manufacturers to find and deploy the very best technology for increasing security and improving the passenger experience" David Pekoske, TSA Administrator
ITF demonstrations allow vendors to test their solutions in a live environment, capture operational data and then refine their solution for potential future engagement with TSA.
We convene the aviation security ecosystem to identify solutions.
We establish the means to demonstrate innovative solutions.
We measure effectiveness and provide data to improve systems.
Stay tuned for the next IDEA Targeted Broad Agency Announcement later this year. To receive the latest updates, subscribe to the ITF mailing list.
ITF demonstrations have occurred at various airports across the U.S. The map below portrays where our demonstrations have been held.
Once demonstration data is collected and reviewed, ITF will collaborate with other TSA offices in order to refine future requirements, provide vendors with operational data, include general lessons learned in future communications to industry, and determine TSA’s next steps.
Capability Manager Roadmaps articulate a collaborative vision for TSA and its transportation security partners by defining goals and associated objectives of TSA's approach for the capability. Publically available Capability Roadmaps are linked below:
