Espanola/Rio Arriba E-911 System Upgrade Presentation to the Project Certification Committee
Project History • On November 15, 2012, the Espanola/Rio Arriba E-911 (ERA E-911) Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) Director submitted a request and vender quote to LGD to approve an upgrade to their current 911 call-taking equipment. The 911 equipment that ERA E-911 currently has was installed in 2007, and they have had no hardware updates since that time. In addition, the equipment failure rates have increased. • On February 19, 2013, the State Board of Finance (BOF) approved the ERA E-911 PSAP funding request for equipment upgrades in the amount of $405,028.53.
Budget Status • The amount approved by the BOF includes funding for equipment and software upgrades for ERA 911. The amount was based on the quote received from the preferred vender. • IV&V was not budgeted for this project. We will put together a budget for IV&V and then request approval from the BOF in April 2014.
Risk & Issues • System failure prior to project completion • We will alert the back-up PSAP that there may be a need to divert 911 calls. • Site readiness • We will require the PSAP to certify that the site is ready prior to giving authorization to move forward.
