Governance and Strategic Planning

The federal government mandate to make nationwide wireless communications interoperability a reality emphasizes the provision of leadership and governance as critically important.  Collaboration and cooperation across multiple jurisdictions, agencies, and disciplines at all levels of government, coupled with bottom-up strategic planning will require plateaus and vetted structures of governance unheard of before in the public safety marketplace.  In recognition of this requirement, Roaming Intelligence offers consultative services in the development of governance structures, guidelines, principles, rules of engagement, selection of governance members, and writing Memorandums of Understanding (MOU).

Strategic Planning is planning developed and executed in context of relevant relationships, environmental constraints, conditions, priorities, resources, and the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of the interoperability initiative.  Context is subtle and invisible to the eye, yet it binds people together, determines their attitudes, and makes them perform their roles according to the design of the whole.  It can take multiple years to develop and execute strategic plans.  Along with governance, they sit at the heart of communications interoperability efforts and play a major role in their success or failure.  Roaming Intelligence views its consultative services in this area as a significant characteristic that separates us from many of the consulting groups in the market.
