Delivering Reliable NG9-1-1 Capabilities

Nearly all Americans today are using cell phones, with a growing number of U.S. households relying solely on mobile devices for communication. Yet most citizens do not realize that existing 9-1-1 emergency systems do not handle mobile data accurately—location data from mobile phones can be inexact and text messages may not even reach traditional 9-1-1 call centers.

How quickly are local and state government entities adopting Next Generation 9-1-1 systems (NG9-1-1) to protect their citizenry? Are current updates enough?

To gauge government entities’ understanding of the needs associated with the changing emergency response system, General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT) commissioned Market Connections to determine how far along state and local governments are in planning and implementing NG9-1-1 systems, as well as the challenges they face.

The Keys to Successful Cloud Migrations

New Research Guides Federal Agencies as they Move to the Cloud

It is not a matter of whether federal civilian agencies will move to the cloud. It’s a matter of when … and how. Choosing flexible solutions that address current and future needs are the keys to making the move cost-effective, secure and seamless.

This white paper from Market Connections and General Dynamics Information Technology outlines four keys to successful cloud migrations and includes detailed research findings, such as the status of federal migrations to the cloud, top benefits and government’s preferred cloud services models.
