4 Cost Rule of Thumb: As The Ratio of # Network Users to Coverage Area Increases Financial analysis moves toward favoring local build model with all other factors held equal. Why? Subscription Costs of a Commercial Service Becomes More Expensive Than Ownership Build Point Breakeven Point Commercial Build or use favored. # of Users State, Local, or Public/Private Build Favored. Commercial Subscription Cost Network Operating Ownership Cost Each jurisdiction must perform the necessary network analysis in order to determine what PS network decision works best for them.
5 There are slightly over 35,000 LOCAL First Responders in the NCR. Annual Regional Wireless Broadband Network (RWBN) operations was estimated at $16.2 million. Commercial data only services for the same number of devices equals $25.2 million annually. Breakeven subscribers equal 17,288. Revenue from State, Federal and Authority PS users can supplement RWBN operations and maintenance fees. There is an estimated 30,000 Public Safety Federal agents in the NCR today.
6 The New York State Association of Counties (NYSAC) Model: State Coordinated-County Built and Operated One Waiver/Application for authorization to deploy and operate The New York State waiver authorizes all counties to access the 700MHz Public Safety Broadband spectrum. Each County can build their own network by agreeing to a Spectrum Agreement that stipulates requirements of network use based on the FCC s regulations. One Grant Application for all Counties outside of NYC: NYSAC in partnership with the State has submitted a NTIA Round #2B application for a State coordinated County built and controlled system of systems network within New York that leverages both existing county, state, commercial infrastructures. Single statewide architecture State Houses the network core. The Counties pay for maintenance and operations and controls access. State Public Safety officials are authorized users at a fee (TBD) One network deployment program with County vendor selection, County implementation and County control and operations: NYSAC plans to Qualify vendors for county build-outs via a single procurement through one county. NYSAC s goal is to allow counties to write task orders and select from a list of qualified vendors. Hey, what about New York City? Isn t that an overlap? NYC will build a network for just NYC, however, by following the FCC rules the NY State Counties and NYC will be interoperable. NYSAC, NY State and NYC previously agreed to a technical architecture that allow the NY State and NYC network cores to be redundant of each other. This streamlined approach creates a state-wide FCC license, grant application, procurement, as well as technical and programmatic efficiencies while ensuring local control and interoperability.

9 Strategy Policy Planning Funding Requirements Business Models Governance FCC D-Block PSST, PSCR, NPSTC Regional partnerships Executive support Inventory assets Support Congressional efforts Grants and capital investment Budget for study Define requirements and objectives Obtain access to broadband spectrum Preliminary design, business model analysis, and budgeting RFP, procurement, deployment, and operations
10 Implementation Strategy Considerations What broadband implementation model options are available and which model best fit operational requirements? What are the applications and how do they advance public safety communication and support government efficiency? What would it cost to deploy and operate the right solution and what are the funding and procurement options? How does the regulatory environment impact the strategy? Operational Requirements Broadband coverage requirements service area, device types, and usage environment Throughput requirements based on specific applications and utilization during normal and peak incident requirements Number and type of end users Type of required devices and how they will be used Evaluate existing assets and systems for integration into the system
11 General Requirements: Based on Operational Business Model and LTE Standards Mobile Data Network Coverage Requirements Throughput Requirements Five Year User Projections Schedule and Program Management Use of existing assets and infrastructure Capacity and Performance User Equipment (UE) Devices enodeb Site Selection and Equipment Configuration Options Evolved Packet Core Architecture Backhaul Network Design Network Compatibility and Standardized Interfaces Security and Integration into the Information Technology Enterprise Network Services and Applications Network Priority and Quality of Service (QOS) Operational Strategy and Control Roaming Partner and System Interoperability Acceptance Testing Interference Mitigation and Performance Enhancement
12 Variable RFP options and associated strategies Own and operate: local, regional, statewide Traditional procurement approach Qualified vendors and integrators Best quality evaluation and selection process Commercial carrier partnership Non-traditional procurement approach Unique requirements regarding coverage, asset sharing and network control/management Defined service level agreements The Nationwide Operator To be defined based on Public Safety s best interests Requirements constant regardless of RFP model Modeling the cost of RF sites LTE standards Capacity (user and usage projections) Coverage and service environments UE devices
