State Contracts

911 Systems and Services Master Purchase Agreements

​On April 10, 2017 the State of California awarded the new statewide 9-1-1 Systems and Services Contract Agreements to nine (9) Contractors who were responsive to the Invitation for Bid (IFB)) 8500-2016 technical and administrative requirements. The term of the Contract is April 10, 2017 through April 9, 2020 with four (4) one-year options to extend. All contract agreements are competitively bid and available to agencies that expend public funds and establish a pre-qualified list of vendors. This simplifies the purchasing process for the end user, utilizing fair and reasonable pricing.

The Public Safety Answering Points (PSAP) may use the Contract Agreements to purchase Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) and maintenance services. Contract numbers have been issued to the Contractors per manufacturer/model configuration and type.
