How It Works
• A collision in City A between an oil tanker and a train carrying chemicals triggers a major toxic incident
• Per pre-planned National Incident Management System (NIMS) procedures the following happens:
• Interoperable radio connectivity between City A Emergency Responders initially
• Interoperable radio connectivity with supporting County agencies
• Interoperable radio connectivity with Cities B & C Emergency Responders per escalation procedures
• PSTN/Cellular/Satellite/network connectivity and interoperability with selected devices
• Pre-defined tiered workgroups provide immediate span of control at each tier
• Effective response and recovery procedures also permit ad hoc connectivity per situation circumstances
• Interoperability occurs between all existing devices regardless of make, model, manufacturer or frequency

7. Transportation & Logistics
The Intermodal Life Cycle
Transportation companies must co-ordinate operations of different nodes:
• Traffic systems control shipping, highways, railroads, air corridors
• Fleet systems schedule and move trucking, transit, railcar fleets
• Terminal systems move goods in & out of airports, ports, rail yards
• Incident systems dispatch crews for response & clearance processes
• Information systems track goods status/condition for public/companies
7

8. Utilities
Utility companies require reliable, robust and instant communications
• Oil and gas, power generation and transmission, water treatment
• Link facilities and staff to effectively serve customers & communities
• Support other utilities in other geographies during disasters
• 24 x 7 x 365 Operations
