Open Platform for Emergency Networks
I have been working on the FEMA contract now for about a month. The Disaster Management team is a good team. The project has a real mission of service to those who put their life on the line for the American public every day. Of course it is a Federal program, meaning that it is difficult to coordinate and rife with bureaucratic impediments to immediate success. Of course, because it is a Federal Program, we team members can take a somewhat longer view. We can do a little more planning and actually define requirements before we are off into development land. Better planning versus more bureaucracy. It will be an interesting balance.
