Specifications include, but are not limited to: The fundamental goal of the CoMIRS Modernization Project is to provide a reliable, long-term communications tool for public safety personnel to communicate seamlessly across the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and across public safety disciplines and operational jurisdictions. Additional goals of the modernization project include: Mission Critical: The radio system works, when and where needed. The design for the new system will provide mission critical reliability and redundancy. P25 Compliant: It is built on a standards-based, P25-compliant time-division multiple access (TDMA) radio platform. The new system will work with a broad range of public safety grade, P25-compliant subscriber units. Supported: It is built on an infrastructure that is supported now and in the future. Improved Coverage: Expands mobile and in-street portable coverage for first responders and others throughout the State. Expands Usage Capacity: The new system has added capacity for anticipated increases in voice and data usage, as well as being able to address unanticipated future increases in usage. Increases in capacity and load are accommodated without negatively affecting the grade of service and delivered audio quality of the system. Expands Channel Capacity: The new system will support more communications channels across more public safety agencies. Affordable: The build-out and the maintenance of the system is affordable and financially predictable. All planning for the CoMIRS Modernization must be sustainable and achievable given available funding. Spectrum Efficient: Plans for the new system will make efficient use of limited available spectrum. Improved Coordination with E911 PSAPs: The modernized CoMIRS system improves voice communications and coordination in response to public safety, health, and security incidents and emergencies reported to E911 PSAPs and other call takers.
