RDSA was organized to facilitate a flexible and effective response to client needs while holding corporate overhead to a minimum. Its staff consisted of a roster of Senior Associates who had accumulated years of experience working in or consulting to the aviation industry or serving as functional experts.

These professionals provided a broad range of expertise and experience in almost all aspects of the aviation industry with a demonstrated ability to apply their experience in the satisfaction of diverse client requirements. Senior Associates were selected for project teams by matching their qualifications and experience with the expertise and role required by the client.

The company was managed by its President, Richard J. Morris, who played an active role in the management of consulting assignments and was directly involved in providing value to RDSA's clients.

In addition to its own expertise, RDSA often engaged technical specialists from other companies to assist in its assignments when their contribution would be of value to its clients.
