NENA is dedicated to Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1) implementation and views a range of testing initiatives as a critical component to accomplishing standards-based NG9-1-1 implementations. Industry partner providers of NG9-1-1 elements ultimately deliver the seamless interoperability NG9-1-1 promises. As such, NENA is seeking applicants to fill three NG9-1-1 Industry Partner (vendor) seats and three NG9-1-1 User (PSAP) seats.
NG9-1-1 testing events, sponsored by NENA and overseen by the NG9-1-1 Industry Collaboration Events Steering Committee , are aimed at supporting industry partners in standards-based testing to verify interoperability and consistent interpretation of the standards associated with NG9-1-1. The Industry Collaboration Event brings together industry partners in an open, supportive, and collaborative environment that fosters a spirit of cooperation.
The Steering Committee is charged with overseeing all planning and execution of the testing events and is comprised of eleven voting and 6 non-voting members, representing important NG9-1-1 stakeholder groups. Steering Committee members are eligible to serve an unlimited number of two-year terms. Initial terms, starting in 2026, will be staggered with one member chosen for a three-year term. Remaining members will hold a 2-year term.
