FAA defines project work codes as a 6-character alpha identifier consisting of three 2-character elements that express purpose, component and type, represents specific airport development and is used in the national priority system equation to produce a numerical rating. Each 2-character alpha identifier may be assigned a value ranging from 0 to 10.

(1) The purpose (P) identifier signifies the underlying objective of an airport development project (e.g., reconstruct, planning, safety). There are approximately 13 purpose identifiers.

(2) The component (C) identifier signifies the physical component (e.g., runway, airfield, planning), for which the development is intended. There are approximately 31 component identifiers.

(3) The type (T) identifier signifies the actual work being done (e.g., expand/extend, construct, update). There are approximately 61 type identifiers.

More information is available in the FAA Order 5090.5, Formulation of the NPIAS and ACIP.
