Challenge
New York City needed a second major emergency communications facility to strengthen the resilience of its public safety network. Located on a nine-acre site in the Bronx, PSAC II had to support continuous 911 operations through extreme conditions while meeting stringent security, infrastructure and operational requirements.
SOLUTION
G&T provided cost management, cost estimating and risk services for the highly complex public safety facility. Designed by SOM, the building combines robust security and operational resilience with critical systems designed to maintain operations for up to 72 hours without external support.
OUTCOME
PSAC II operates as a load-balanced parallel 911 center alongside PSAC I, with emergency calls distributed between the two facilities as part of an integrated system. Together, they provide greater capacity and resilience for New York City’s emergency communications network, helping maintain continuity of critical 911 services when they are needed most.
