Study reveals inadequate status in Jordan's Emergency Communication Interoperability Plan

The thorough analysis results in proposed amendments to Jordan's Emergency Communications Interoperability Plan (JECIP).

These suggestions are based on the analysis of the technological aspects of emergency communications, Jordan's communications environment, the requirements analysis of the emergency communications plan, and lessons learned from the U.S.'s experience in emergency communications.

A new report, "Emergency Communication Interoperability Planning for Disaster Response: A Case Study of Jordan" was released to the Arab Advisors Group's Telecoms Strategic Research Service subscribers on February 23, 2009. This The 48-pages report, which has 25 detailed exhibits, provides a comprehensive analysis of Jordan's current Emergency Communications Interoperability Plans, policies, Emergency Operation Plans (EOPs) and compares Jordan's Humanitarian Assistance/Disaster Relief (HA/DR) communications readiness level with that in the United States.

Any investment in this report will count towards an annual Strategic Research Service subscription should the service be acquired within three months from purchasing the report.

An investment in the report can also count towards attending Arab Advisors' sixth annual Media and Telecoms Convergence Conference on June 1 & 2 2009 at the Four Seasons in Amman.

"The aim of this proposed JECIP is to improve the response readiness and efficiency of components involved in an emergency. Parts of this plan are already in practice but the added value relies on the integration of the plan's components." Mr. Jawad Abbassi, Founder and General Manager of the Arab Advisors Group, commented. "The main objective of the proposed JECIP is to make sure that the current communications infrastructure will allow responders to talk to each other and assure that future equipment procurement will be according to specific interoperability and modularity standardization policies." Mr. Jawad Abbassi added.
