FirstNet Reaching Out to States on 2016 Consultations

FirstNet launched its consultation program for 2016 on Monday, sending planning packages to the single points of contact (SPOCs) in all 56 states and territories, said David Buchanan, FirstNet director-consultation, in a Tuesday blog post. “The package provides an overview of our consultation approach and includes a number of tools to assist the SPOCs with preparing for consultation, including a checklist and proposed agenda to help organize their kick-off meetings, as well as suggestions for executive-level consultation in their states and territories,” Buchanan said.
