The concept of operations <br /> will also serve to identify the operational scenarios to be supported and outline a <br /> transition plan for the orderly and error-free migration to new functional platforms. Ultimately, the <br /> concept of operations will form the basis for the general system design and requirements expressed <br /> in the RFP to the solution vendors. <br /> Additional services that FE will provide at the request of the Board include evaluating current 9-1-1 <br /> needs, providing an ESlnet IP backbone for NG9-1-1 applications, and increasing PSAP <br /> interoperability. <br /> 2.2.3 Technology Experience <br /> The projects listed in subsequent sections demonstrate that FE has performed similar analyses on <br /> state, regional, and county systems of comparable size and subscriber base.
