The contract seeks to procure program management services for the modernization of the Public Safety Communications Network (PSCN) operated by the Public Safety Communications agency in California. The current PSCN, critical for mission-essential communications among public safety and law enforcement agencies, includes legacy systems such as the Message Switch System (MSS), which routes law enforcement messages across various internal and external platforms. While the MSS remains operational, its aging infrastructure and limited security features create risks related to operational continuity, compliance with Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) standards, scalability, and vendor support. The modernization effort aims to replace this outdated component with a more secure, reliable, scalable, and CJIS-compliant solution that supports multi-agency collaboration and integrates on-premises and cloud-based systems, thus enhancing overall resiliency, maintainability, and data security amid evolving cybersecurity threats. The solicitation, identified by number 2026-RFP-00311 and posted in January 2026 with a response deadline in February 2026, is managed by the Public Safety Communications agency located in Redwood City, California. Contractual provisions emphasize intellectual property rights wherein all work products created under the contract are owned by the County of San Mateo, requiring contractor and subcontractor cooperation to secure and transfer such rights. Vendor and contractor access policies mandate strict adherence to County security protocols including device management, password policies, antivirus measures, and compliance monitoring, with enforcement mechanisms that may lead to penalties or contract termination for violations. The contract framework is supported by standard templates defining terms for services, payments, compliance, confidentiality, termination, and indemnification, thereby establishing a comprehensive legal structure to support the County’s modernization goals.

Full Description

Show more
The PSC operates a Public Safety Communications Network (PSCN) and Services that supports mission-critical communications and data exchange for multiple public-safety and law enforcement agencies. Portions of the PSCN were implemented using legacy technologies and architectures that no longer fully support current operational requirements, security standards, or interoperability expectations. Public-safety agencies increasingly rely on secure, high-availability systems that support mobile access, cloud-based services, real-time data sharing, and integration with emerging technologies. Additionally, evolving cybersecurity threats and Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) compliance requirements have increased the need for enhanced security controls, network segmentation, monitoring, and encryption. The PSC's Message Switch System (MSS) is a key component of the current environment and serves as a centralized system for routing law enforcement messages between internal applications, such as Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD), and external systems, including CLETS, the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), Automated Warrant System (AWS), and other local, state, and federal law enforcement systems. The existing MSS has been in operation for many years and continues to support daily operations; however, the system's aging architecture, reduced vendor support, limited scalability, and lack of modern security capabilities present increasing operational, compliance, and sustainability risks. The PSC is initiating these projects to modernize and replace the existing MSS as part of its broader efforts, and to enhance the PSCN and services modernization. The goal is to implement a secure, reliable, scalable, and CJIS-compliant solution that supports multi-agency operations, improves resilience and maintainability, and enables integration with both current and future on-premises and cloud-based systems, while ensuring continuity of mission-critical public safety services.
