From the Director

Guilford Metro 9-1-1 (GM911) serves as the Primary Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) for enhanced 9-1-1 in Guilford County. The center provides 911, dispatch, and radio services for other cities, towns, and unincorporated areas in Guilford County, and only EMS dispatch for the City of High Point. The 2025 calendar year was a good one for our department. We continued our ongoing transition to a new computer-aided dispatch platform with Octave (formerly Hexagon). The department remains at the forefront in many areas. Some of the many 2025 projects include: • The Technical Services Division continued maintenance for a backup redundancy for the USDD fire alerting system and deployed new radios for all City users, which included police, fire, and all general government departments • The Public Safety IT Division transitioned to Axon RMS for police in October 2025, and continued work for implementation for Octave’s CAD. IT also deployed Multiple Factor Authentication for all public safety accounts.

• The Training Division completed 7,600 public records requests and received state funding and approval to outfit all seats in the new training room with phones, CAD, and radio. • The Emergency Communications Division was credited with 53 life saves and processed more than 670,000 phone transactions. GM911 is progressive and responsive to the needs of our agencies and community. We stand ready to fulfill our role as the “First, First Responder.” I am very proud of the staff’s many accomplishments. Without its dedication and professionalism, GM911 would not fulfill our mission of providing high-level customer service to the community and our users.

Administrative Division

Quality Assurance & Training Section The Quality Assurance and Training Section oversees the coordination of training programs for both new hires and existing employees, as well as the generation of 911 records for the Guilford County Department of Social Services, emergency responders, legal professionals, media outlets, and the public. The team also actively contributes to public relations and recruitment initiatives. This section develops emergency communications personnel through a structured Training Academy complemented by ongoing in-service education. The curriculum aligns with national standards and is accredited through the APCO Agency Training Program, ensuring trainees receive consistent, high-quality instruction while developing critical decision-making and psychomotor skills. Building upon previous infrastructure investments, including the Shepherd Training Center and AI Skill Lab, the academy fully integrates simulation based instruction. AI-supported scenarios and practical activities enhance decision-making, reinforce protocol adherence, and improve operational readiness before independent call handling. The QA/Training Section ensures accreditation standards are met, and employees are developed through structured feedback and continuous improvement practices. Monthly evaluations, incident reviews, and Quality Improvement Plans reinforce performance standards and facilitate measurable growth. The program adopts a supportive, non-punitive approach that recognizes outstanding performance and provides clear, actionable feedback. Collaboration among quality assurance staff, communications training officers, and supervisors promotes consistency across shifts and supports operational excellence.

The Administrative Division holds two sections, the Administrative Section, and the Training & Quality Assurance Section. The Administrative Section provides day-to-day fiscal management, personnel management, project oversight, and planning for all other divisions. The section oversees the department’s $24.9 million budget. About the Division

2025 Highlights

State-of-the-art communications equipment is critical to GM911’s success, but only effective when regularly updated and maintained by the Technical Services Division. In 2025, the unit maintained and configured the department’s P25 digital trunked infrastructure platform and upgraded the system to the newest version (A2024.1). The updated radio system also received required hardware and software updates, optimizations, and enhancements to maximize performance and accuracy. Updates and enhancements give GM911 a system secure and robust enough to meet the needs of our public safety users. The division also enhanced the PCTEL Seahawk Radio Frequency monitoring system through several software upgrades. An interference triangulation upgrade allows over-the-air radio frequency monitoring, which greatly assists in monitoring and locating potential interference harmful to the radio system’s operation. The Seahawk system has helped the department identify and rectify several interference-related problems. The equipment is also a major player in the commissioning and inspection of bi-directional amplifier systems (BDA) in compliance with the NC State Fire Code. The department looks to implement additional Seahawk equipment in the future. Technical Services staff continue BDA systems checks and approvals established by changes in the NC Fire Code. The new code requires first responders’ radios to work properly while inside newly constructed buildings. It also requires the Technical Services Division to work with every contractor on new constructions of at least 7,200 square feet to ensure the BDAs are commissioned properly, communicate over the air to City tower sites, and do not interrupt the division’s systems. Technical Services holds the FCC license for GM911’s radio system and oversees the BDA systems for multiple jurisdictions throughout the region, including Greensboro, High Point, Burlington, Graham, Mebane, Haw River, Guilford County, Alamance County, and other areas. Representatives from the division attended various meetings, conferences, trainings, and workshops for NC Emergency Management, FIRSTNET, APCO, NENA, MTUG, NCSIEC, Motorola, and other state and national organizations.
