The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) recently announced a strategic plan to drive excellence and resiliency. The Horizon 25 Strategy focuses on three primary goals: modernizing TSA’s checkpoints, elevating the traveler experience, and strengthening multi-modal transportation security.
“President Trump and Secretary Mullin have entrusted me with the task of modernizing TSA,” TSA Administrator David Cummins said. “In its first 25 years, this agency has performed its critical Homeland Security mission with dedication and excellence. As we look forward to the next 25 years, we must constantly work to stay ahead of evolving threats and deliver a Golden Age of Travel. Through the Horizon 25 Strategy, we will build a TSA that is agile, resilient and ready for tomorrow’s challenges.”
Next month, Cummins will convene agency employees, including field and headquarters personnel, who are considered innovators and groundbreakers with the goal of rapidly advancing key strategic initiatives.
The strategy will increase the number of public-private partnerships with industry leaders. TSA Gold+ will be replaced with the Screening Partnership Program. The program will use the private sector to deliver a safer, more secure and more efficient aviation system.
TSA PreCheck will be enhanced, and new technology will be purchased to improve the passenger experience.
