Simulcast 2 Way Radio Project
The County of Cumberland, Maine, maintains and operates County government radio sites and locations throughout the entire County and serves it’s customers with a broad spectrum of emergency communication services to the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office, municipal town police and fire services as well as all E911 dispatch services to the municipalities that contract with the County.
With the present twenty plus year old two-way radio communications systems which seems to provide on the average about 60% mobile and portable radio coverage to the County area it serves, it has become increasingly apparent that due to officer safety issues for law enforcement, on scene communication for the fire services and EMS services that a new and improved two way radio system is needed. The Cumberland County radio committee has moved to put out this RFP to respond to those issues. The successful bidder will be required to provide a performance bond. The County is requesting that this project be completed within 6 months of award of contract. The County will address any issues with tower site owners due to current leases and will coordinate with manufacturers. The County will be responsible for issues that arise if new sites are needed and/or any upgrades that would change the current footprint at existing tower sites.
