Communications Interoperability is a Top Priority for Maryland.

The Governor’s July 10, 2008 Executive Order formalized the statewide interoperability governance structures (i.e., the Statewide Interoperability Executive Committee and its Practitioner Steering Committee) and created a Program Management Office (PMO) to oversee the major projects of the interoperability program. This strengthened leadership and provided a framework for program support, as well as signaling to state and local stakeholders and elected officials that communications interoperability is a top priority for Maryland.
