5.6Funding Initiatives


The funding source for Project SAFE-T is statutorily established through the year 2019. (See Section 3.6. Committed Sources of Funding).
Local Indiana first responders, despite the savings realized through Project Hoosier SAFE-T, still have trouble finding the funds to purchase radios and other equipment to perate on the system. The state is dedicated to pursuing all avenues to help locals join the statewide network, if desired.

5.6.1Leverage grant writing resources for locals


While dependence upon grants is not a reliable source of continued funding for critical communications equipment, the state of Indiana will continue to aggressively pursue and leverage funds toward local communities to purchase portable and mobile radios for operation on the statewide interoperable communications system. Other funding opportunities will be pursued to assist with other interoperable communications equipment such as satellite telephones and gateways for use with legacy radio systems.
6Scope & Timeframe (2007-2010)

The Indiana SCIP is a living document. Funding and resources will define the ultimate scope of the goals and initiatives, which will be revised as needed.

7Performance Measures

The IPSC will measure performance on a bi-annual basis using the criteria below. Some of the measures are a one-time qualification, requiring only a yes/no verification of whether the task has been accomplished. Other measures require ongoing monitoring and will reflect satisfactory or superior performance through percentages.



A thorough database (CASM) exists with statewide public safety agency information, including number of first responders, types of systems, equipment, and future interoperable communication needs.

Yes/No

A Statewide Interoperable Communications Coordinator serves as a champion for local and state public safety professionals.

Yes/No

Stakeholders are exploring technology and shared solutions for a public safety data sharing network via INData

Yes/No

Percentage of disciplines and agencies that are using common language protocol

20% by year end 2008

60% by year end 2009

99% by year end 2010


Percentage of public safety agencies using the CASM database to prepare their Interoperable Communications Plans and scenarios.

100% by end of grant term

Percentage of local and state public safety professionals that access and use web-based training and SOP repositories

100% by end of grant term

Percentage of counties that have submitted County Communications Plans.

100% by end of grant term

Percentage of local agencies that continue to migrate to the SAFE-T system.

Upwards trend

System performance remains at very high levels (Channel Availability, Total System Grade of Service)

Channel Availability: 99%

Total System Grade of Service: 99%



Communications-specific tabletop exercises are conducted with multi-jurisdictional and multi-agency operations, technical, and dispatch participants
