Tait Radio Communications announces its GSA Schedule GS-35F-0279U at this year's 74th Association of Public Safety Communications Officers (APCO) Conference and Expo in Kansas City, MO.

The General Services Administration (GSA) allows federal, state and local agencies to utilize GSA Advantage to purchase Tait APCO P25 products to incorporate into their radio solution.

“Already a number of state and local organizations have turned to Tait digital radio products and solutions to assist in protecting the lives of local citizens,” says Tait North America GSA sales VP John Hobbs. “Federal agencies are already choosing Tait products for their P25 solutions, with the option of utilizing AES encryption or OTAR capability.”

Tait has complemented its advanced manufacturing capabilities in Christchurch, New Zealand, with a GSA-exclusive production line in Houston, TX, meaning federal agencies will have efficient access to quality and viable solutions.

"A significant portion of the manufacturing process of Tait APCO P25 equipment will be undertaken in Houston, Texas,” says Hobbs. “This encompasses all network system components, including base station/repeaters, mobiles and portables."

“Those organizations currently using Tait P25 radios continue to be impressed by the reliability of the base stations, and the digital voice clarity of the portables and mobiles. Several federal agencies have tested Tait P25 radios in their labs and on their benches with superior performance results. The company has FIPS 140-2 certification (meaningTait’s encryption techniques have been approved by independent experts). Federal agencies can rest assured that, when they purchase radios through GSA Advantage, they will have the choice from the best performing encrypted P25 radios available,” concludes Hobbs.
