  1. State-wide Communications System for Law Enforcement and Public Safety “Moving Ahead” Dan Brown, Project Director

  2. Overview: This site visit is designed to share the strategic project plan and begin the development of a strategic implementation and operations plan around wireless interoperability. This is an iterative process that will take place over the course of next few months. There are four main goals : » Communicate the state objectives for the project. » Define the problems of wireless interoperability with respect to this project with respect to the users group. » Prioritize key local issues and collect approval. » Prepare for design and production using a site survey tool.

  3. Definition • Interoperability is the ability of public safety service and support providers to communicate with each other via voice and/or data: • On demand • In real time • When needed • When authorized

  4. The System…How It Works $300 Million

  5. UASI System

  6. Project DescriptionPhase One • Inter-operational Communications • 800 MHz P25 Compliant • Simulcast Five Channel Digital Overlay • Sites - Six Remotes, One Prime, One Master • $9.5 M – ODP Funded • Owned and Operated by Consortium – COA, DC, FC, CC, State

  7. LETPP Solution • Interoperable Communications System that when implemented: • Uses existing Radio Frequency infrastructure • Achieves “on demand” interoperability through overlay additions to the current RF infrastructure: IP network backbone, IP network components and Mobile Communication Units • Provides flexibility and scalability • Achieves functionality in area covering 75% of state population with fixed communications assets; functionality in remaining 25% with mobile communication assets • Can be implemented within $8M budget • Can be completed within two year time frame • Can be managed effectively with three working groups: Task Force Requirements Analysis Group, Technical Working Group, Operations Working Group

  8. NGA Workshop • Benefits • Gateway/Model for True Interop Solutions • Enhance Public Safety • Force Multiplier • Includes Level Cooperation • Facilitates National Response Plan • Accomplishes Thirty Plus Year Goal • Protects Emergency Responders • Phase Two

  9. What Project Will Not Do • Increase Radio Frequency Coverage • Increase Channel Capacity • Allow Radio of One Type to Communicate with Transmitter of Different Type • Eliminate Technology Obsolescence

  10. Key Evaluation Areas • MPLS Network 80/20 • Spectrum Availability • Intergovernmental Agreements • End User \ Transition • Statewide vs State Owned • Open Standards

  11. Value Proposition for System • Local Law Enforcement • Interoperable communications for law enforcement and other first responders at local level • Interoperability with neighboring agencies with overlapping radio frequency coverage • Dispatch back-up capability with other agencies for continuity of operations • Dispatch conferencing with other departments and agencies • Interoperable communications statewide in major events • State Agencies • Centralized broadcast, remote monitoring statewide in major event situations • Selective dispatch center conferencing statewide • Dispatch consolidation • All • Participate in first statewide interoperable communications project • Help create a model for future state wide interoperable communication projects involving multiple local and state government agencies • Project mostly funded by federal money for first two years

  12. Success • On time • On budget • Achieved Interoperability by Project Design. • Satisfied constituents
