Emergency Communications Operability
By :
Alex De Mostafa
Emergency Response
agencies with small budgets have enough trouble addressing communications operability let alone interoperability. though agencies have their central frequency on a repeater, alternative channels may be still depend on the ionosphere to get distance. It is important for government administrators to realize that emergency responders in spite of size and location must have suitable wireless communications. When the decision is made to address operability, it is equally important to address interoperability. One cost effective method is to enter into an agreement with adjacent municipalities to make use of the same frequencies for alternative communications; the cost of licensing, securing a repeater, and providing emergency power could be split between municipalities. This method addresses operability (bringing you up to speed) and interoperability (the ability to share frequencies). Another avenue to consider is pursuing the grant processes but this may have to be done individually by each municipality.
Gordon Vincent Associates LLC President Gordon A. Moccio is a major proponent of the “System Life-cycle Planning Model” currently being prepared by Federal Office of Emergency
Communications and believes it could regulate the process of attaining both Operability and Interoperability. “It’s one thing to have a how to do template but quite another issue to get government officials and police administrators on board with the process” Moccio believes departments having their budgets cut to the bone is a major stumbling block.
Moccio helps agencies and municipalities in drafting plans for consolidation and internal controls practices that essentially create an audit trail so departments know exactly where their money is going. This can provide enormous fiscal benefits to municipalities.
