The Unified 911 Command Center will soon be equipped with an upgraded communication software system that will provide first responders with state-of-the-art tools as envisioned by the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG).

Called the Unified Platform for Communications & Dispatch (UPCAD), the system features a field-proven dispatch console designed to meet the demands of a high-pressure public safety environment. It is complemented by robust smartphones, feature phones, and tablets for first responders, all built to meet high durability standards for industrial and mission-critical use.
