The ability to communicate is critical in managing coordinating efforts to effectively resolve an emergency situation in an expedient and organized manner. These mobile radios will be permanently installed inside of the Mobile Command Center ensuring interoperability and continuity between our own First Responders and partnering agencies at the disaster location.
