Statewide Interoperability

The Statewide Interoperability Coordinator (SWIC) serves to promote and advance interoperable communications statewide. The SWIC is an ex-officio member of the Statewide Interoperability Executive Committee (SIEC) coordinating its activities and providing recommendations and solutions to interoperable communication challenges throughout the state. Pertinent to the SWIC's position is to advocate for public safety and to educate, develop policy, and provide standardization for both LMR and LTE communication platforms.
