Tetra Tech, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTEK) announced today that it has been
awarded a $40 million, single-award contract to develop a new
information system for tracking and analyzing medical information

related personnel. Under the five-year Aerospace Medicine Safety
Information System (AMSIS) contract, Tetra Tech will support the
FAA in the system engineering and design, system architecture
development, testing, data analytics, training, and deployment of
the system.
The FAA Office of Aerospace Medicine (AAM) advances the field of

systems and functionalities and will also provide new capabilities
to support AAM core safety initiatives such as Airmen Medical
Certification, ATCS Medical Clearance, Industry Drug and Alcohol
Testing Program (Drug Abatement), Aviation Medical Examiner (AME)
Program, Internal Substance Abuse Program, and Aerospace Medical
Research.
