The Project will help the public safety community address the growing technical challenges they face while providing insight into the elements necessary to better manage critical emergency communications & interoperability projects. This knowledge will help provide public safety a better foundation for briefing key decision makers on the key issues facing emergency communications technologies and the implementation of complex projects.
