Next Generation 911

Accelerate the Transition to Next Generation 911

The communications devices being used by the public are becoming more advanced and emergency communication centers need to evolve in lock step. For decades, 911 access was limited to voice calls — but those days are over. Next Generation 911 (NG911) is an Internet Protocol (IP), standards-based system that enables the transmission of images, videos and other forms of rich data, in addition to voice.

NG911 will create cost and operational efficiencies, enable data sharing between 911 centers to enhance situational awareness, improve interoperable communications and establish redundancy and resiliency that didn’t exist previously. All of this will enable faster and more reliable response and help to keep emergency responders safer. When integrated with the nationwide public safety broadband network (NPSBN), NG911 will become the core of a unified, seamless emergency response ecosystem.

Public safety agencies need to prepare for the new technologies, operational processes, policies and training needed to thrive in an NG911 environment. At Mission Critical Partners, our extensive experience in the strategic planning, design, acquisition, deployment and maintenance of everything NG911-related gives our project teams the expertise they need to help 911 organizations reinvent themselves. We guide our clients as they build resilient, secure and sustainable NG911 systems that will dramatically improve emergency response outcomes for the communities they serve.
