This is neither a request for proposals nor an invitation for bids. Background In January 2016, in partnership with the PSAP community, national professional 911 associations, all levels of government, and the private sector, the Task Force on Optimal PSAP Architecture (TFOPA) delivered its final report to the FCC. This document contains a collaborative vision for the future of optimal PSAPs and 911 systems in the United States. The document includes a section (5.9.2) entitled, ‘‘Findings and Considerations’’ recommending that, ‘‘a National system enabling the collection and analysis of standardized administrative data, operational data, cost data and CAD data should be developed and made available to PSAPS and 911 Authorities, to provide essential information to substantiate planning decisions and improvements to assist in the migration towards NG911.’’ This RFI request directly relates to this recommendation by seeking comment on specific potential components of a nationally uniform 911 data system that would be implemented and operated to bridge this identified gap, and the process that would be used to develop, implement and operate this data system. Responses to the following questions are requested to help plan the development and creation of a nationally uniform 911 data system that would enable the collection and analysis of standardized PSAP data and operational 911 system data. Please provide references as appropriate. 1. What significant changes have occurred in 911 and PSAP related data systems at the national, State and local levels during the last ten years? 2. As a 911 stakeholder, how might the implementation of a nationally uniform 911 data system be most useful to you (i.e. planning, funding justification, strategic planning etc.)? 3. What are the most critical issues facing current use and future interconnection of PSAP CAD systems that could be addressed in the development of the nationally uniform 911 data system? Please be as specific as possible. 4. What CAD and/or PSAP and/or 911 system data do you presently collect and what additional data would be beneficial to assist with staffing, budgeting, testing, contract compliance, VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:01 Jun 29, 2016 Jkt 238001 performance metrics, planning, governance, or quality improvement activities? 5. What kind of data elements would you consider as essential data related to information handled by telecommunicators and by CAD systems, in receiving and processing 911 calls, and transmitting information to emergency responders? Please be as specific as possible in listing examples. 6. What kind of data elements would you consider as essential data related to the administration and operation of a PSAP? Please be as specific as possible in listing examples. 7. What kind of data elements would you consider as essential data related to the administration and operation of a local/state 911 system? Please be as specific as possible in listing examples. 8. How could a nationally uniform 911 data system enhance collaboration among CAD/Records Management Systems (RMS), 911 authorities, the first responder community, and others? 9. How could the proposed data system promote community preparedness and resilience? 10. How could this proposed data system contribute to improved coordination at the local, regional, state and national levels? 11. What are your suggestions for the process that should be used in developing, implementing and/or operating a nationally uniform 911 data collection system? Please be as specific as possible. 12. What specific agencies/ organizations/entities are essential to involve, as part of a collaborative group that develops, implements, and/or operates this data system? 13. In your opinion, what are the challenges that would have to be overcome, in implementing a nationally uniform 911 data system? 14. In your opinion, how would the existence of a nationally uniform 911 data system be beneficial in implementing Next Generation 911? Please be as specific as possible in providing examples. 15. Do you have any additional comments regarding this subject? Issued on: June 23, 2016. Jeffrey P. Michael, Associate Administrator, Research and Program Development.
