Mission
“Improve propulsion and power systems technology program coordination and collaboration among government agencies, e.g. DoD, NASA, DOE, and FAA– leading to a greater national alliance/reliance among the program participants and therefore stakeholders, resulting in more effective leveraging of existing federal investments in aerospace propulsion and power research and technology.”
–Alliance Leadership Team
Potential Partners
PPSA encourages and is open to additional new concepts in partnering.
Overview
PPSA was formed in 1999 with the overall objective of promoting programmatic and technical collaboration between government agencies in order to better utilize existing program resources in the areas of power and propulsion. PPSA encourages further development of current and new areas of collaboration while enhancing opportunities for spin-off and higher technology readiness of government research.
The PPSA is a government alliance. Interaction and coordination with Industry and Academia will continue to prosper through the currently funded government programs. PPSA has technology area teams (TAT) that are focused to further develop current and new areas of collaboration regarding eleven key technologies.

To provide further understanding of the charter of each TATs emphasis and to offer relevancy and potential benefits to new partnering opportunities, please review the TAT vision statements .
The TATs are working to enhance opportunities for spin-off and higher technology readiness of government research.
- More effective use of limited US Government programmatic resources in propulsion and power systems technology development.
- Enable and encourage new agreements.
- Highlight and reinforce existing collaborative activities.
