Motorola Solutions has been awarded a $23.5 million contract to deliver radio infrastructure equipment and services to Emergency Communications for British Columbia Inc. and the regional government agency partners of E-Comm.
E-Comm and its partners within the police, fire and ambulance services selected Motorola Solutions’ ASTRO Project 25 radio infrastructure following endorsement by the Lower Mainland emergency services community, Motorola Solutions said Monday.
George Krausz, president of Motorola Solutions Canada, said the company will work with E-Comm and its partner agencies to implement the new infrastructure as a replacement for the region’s legacy emergency communications system.
The P25 radio system is scheduled for a complete rollout across Metro Vancouver and Abbotsford by the end of 2017 and a pilot launch in mid-2015.
E-Comm developed the new network design and Motorola Solutions conducted the review.
