Abstract: The NOAA Office of Marine and Aviation Operations operates NOAA's Fleet of 15 vessels, 10 aircraft, the Uncrewed Systems Operations Center, and NOAA Dive Center. Success of these operations is built on three key pillars: people, platforms and culture. From ship and aircraft recapitalization efforts to development of a certified Total Worker Health Program, OMAO employs a holistic approach to ensure vital data is provided for public safety, commerce, national security, and environmental intelligence. RDML Nancy Hann will discuss OMAO's multi-faceted approach to sustainable excellence now and into the future in support of the Department of Commerce and NOAA missions.
