Strategic Technology Reserve Resource Development  Facilitate a review of the Minnesotas basic STR proposal to assure that it addresses Minnesotas basic needs.  Identify and provide technical assistance in the acquisition of resources (including but not limited to transportable repeaters, transportable antennas, portable radio, satellite services and VHF spectrum) needed to establish Minnesotas STR capability. Develop an outline for training and exercises necessary to assure that Minnesotas STR capability can be deployed and used, consistent with any Department of Homeland Security (DHS) standards or guidelines and in a timely and appropriate manner consistent with the hazards and needs of the state.  This project will require the potential contractor to provide two people to provide support in two related but different areas, as follows: 1. To provide the administrative support to the Chair of the Sub-Committee and assigned DECN staff member or project manager, to develop and institutionalize an organizational structure that will support the continued maintenance and development of Minnesotas STR capability. 2. To provide technical assistance in evaluating the current deployable communication resources (VHF, 700/800 MHz and satellite), determining resources required to address gaps, drafting Request for Proposals (RFP), establishing technical and operational standards for resources and in developing training protocols.
