Additional Information

Agency Name: National Institute of Justice
Description: With this solicitation, NIJ seeks qualified applicants to develop solutions to assure that law enforcement agencies are able to communicate in the manner needed to support effective operations—voice, video, data, and other applications in a mobile environment—under one or more of the following three scenarios:
• A severely degraded terrestrial communications infrastructure resulting from a man-made or natural disaster.
• An inadequate terrestrial communications infrastructure, such as may be found in some rural or tribal areas, but also in some parts of the urban law enforcement operating environment such as in buildings and subterranean areas.
• The availability of multiple, overlapping communications infrastructures with varying attributes.

NIJ will also consider applications seeking funding to demonstrate, test, and/or evaluate existing solutions that have the potential to meet these needs.
