Formed in 1990 through an agreement between the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO), the National Association of State Technology Directors (NASTD) and U.S. federal government agencies, Project 25 (P25) is a unique user-driven process that works with equipment manufacturers to establish current and emerging wireless land mobile radio (LMR) communications standards that meet the requirements of the public safety community. Project 25 is the only known user-driven emergency communications standards process in the U.S. The Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate leads the congressionally legislated P25 Compliance Assessment Program and supports SAFECOM recommendations related to emergency communication standards development.
