The ATC is GEIA's focal point for government-industry liaison with FAA and other government customers in Air Traffic Control and related systems and equipment. Members have backgrounds in marketing, business-government relations, and similar fields where ATC and other FAA equipment procurement is an important area of business interest. The ATC sponsors four meetings a year in which we address issues such as FAA telecommunications programs, policies affecting international sales of ATC systems, FAA acquisition policies,etc. We also typically have FAA or other agency guest speakers appear to discuss current developments which impact the supplier community. We help members network with FAA principals and better understand the FAA marketplace.
Membership is a limited number of vice president level representatives of member companies.
The SSTC is our engineering management component and the technical advisory group to the GEIA Board of Directors.

Membership includes senior engineering management representatives. The purpose of the CMC is to standardize compact models for all major technologies so that customer communication and efficiency can be enhanced. Standard interfaces so that models can be tested faster and implemented easier.
