As part of this duty the Oklahoma Office of Homeland Security shall:
2. Coordinate statewide planning for public safety communication needs of state government and state emergency responders, including a migration plan for state agency use of public safety communications technologies and rendering of aid between state government and its political subdivisions for organizing and use of disparate public safety communications systems;
5. Establish minimum standards and protocols for acquisition, development, or enhancement of public safety communications technologies. These standards shall be utilized by the Information Services Division of the Office of Management and Enterprise Services pursuant to the provisions of Section 34.20 of Title 62 of the Oklahoma Statutes; and
B. It is the intent of the Legislature that all state public entities comply with the provisions of the Statewide Communications Interoperability Plan issued by the Oklahoma Office of Homeland Security. All state agencies are required to review the provisions of the Statewide Communications Interoperability Plan and the public safety communications standards issued by the Oklahoma Office of Homeland Security prior to the purchase, acquisition, development, or enhancement of any public safety communications system. Local public safety agencies and political subdivisions of the state are encouraged, but not required, to review the provisions of the Statewide Communications Interoperability Plan and the public safety communications standards issued by the Oklahoma Office of Homeland Security prior to the purchase, acquisition, development, or enhancement of any public safety communications system to assist the local public safety agency or political subdivision in purchasing decisions.
C. No state agency shall use state funds or enter into any agreement for the acquisition, development, or enhancement of a public safety communication system unless the request is consistent with the Statewide Communications Interoperability Plan and the public safety communications standards issued by the Oklahoma Office of Homeland Security.
