FirstNet FY 2017: Annual Report to Congress

In the next fiscal year, we will continue to operationalize the network and interface with public safety. We have already begun work on service offerings like priority and preemption, and new capabilities will come as the FirstNet core network is launched in the first half of calendar year 2018. In addition,
we will see new device, application, and service offerings. We also will see the first phases of our RAN buildout to reflect increased coverage across the
country.

With AT&T’s partnership, we are embracing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to transform public safety communications. This public-private partnership, with the support of Congress, the FirstNet Board, our stakeholders, dedicated FirstNet and AT&T staff, and our industry partners, sets a path to deliver the innovation that public safety deserves. We look forward to continuing our efforts to transform the future of public safety communications.
