1 Delivery Mechanism Objectives for State Plans

The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 requires the First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet) to deliver a plan to the governor of each of the 56 states and territories notifying the states and territories of the completion of the Request for Proposal process, details of the proposed plan for buildout of the nationwide, interoperable broadband network in said state or territory, and the funding level for the state or territory as determined by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (the “state plan”). It is FirstNet’s intent to present each state plan to each governor via a Web interface developed and hosted by the Contractor.

FirstNet’s objectives for the state plan delivery mechanism are as follows:

Provide the capability for FirstNet, the Contractor, and others to securely upload, edit, delete, search, and display information for a specific state plan.

Provide access to the information in the State Plan Template (Section J, Attachment J-19) via an easily understood format, using interactive maps, graphics, color-coding, and others as appropriate.

Include security provisions to manage data access permissions by role to allow for custom views.

The solution shall also provide the ability to edit and delete users and roles and the capability to limit individual user access to specific data fields.

Provide a user-friendly interface that provides for intuitive navigation throughout the full state plan and all of its elements with minimal effort.

Provide a search function.

Provide the capability for the user to print selected state plan information.

Provide documentation accessible from the user interface that lists and explains all included features.

Provide stable and functional delivery mechanism that is tested thoroughly prior to initial deployment and during system upgrades, enhancements, etc.
