Michael Baker International Selected by U.S. Army to Develop NG9-1-1 GIS and Addressing Data at 54 Army Installations

December 16, 2025

PITTSBURGH (DATE, 2025) –  Michael Baker International, a global leader in engineering, consulting and technology services, today announced that the firm, with support from portfolio company DATAMARK Technologies, has been selected by the U.S. Army’s Product  Director Base Emergency Communications System (PD BECS), Program Executive Office for Command, Control, Communications, and Network (PEO C3N) to support Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) modernization at Continental United States (CONUS) installations by developing Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1) Geographic Information System (GIS) and addressing data at 54 Army installations. As part of this effort, the team will collaborate closely with the U.S. Army and their Naval Information Warfare Center Atlantic support to produce road centerlines, address points and emergency service boundaries that comply with National Emergency Number Association (NENA), Spatial Data Standards for Facilities, Infrastructure and Environment (SDSFIE) and United States Postal Service (USPS) standards.

“This project represents a major step forward to strengthen emergency response capabilities across U.S. Army facilities,” said John Hurley, John Hurley, P.E., PMP, National Market Lead – Army at Michael Baker International. “Michael Baker’s long-standing work with the U.S. Army’s Installation Geospatial Information & Services (IGI&S) Program, combined with DATAMARK Technologies’ leadership on statewide NENA-compliant NG9-1-1 GIS projects, makes our team uniquely positioned to partner with the U.S. Army to deliver GIS data that supports a resilient, future-ready emergency communications infrastructure that protects lives and enhances  mission readiness.”

This initiative will deliver advanced NG9-1-1 GIS data and information for 9-1-1 call management and Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) systems designed to improve the speed, accuracy and reliability of emergency communications for military personnel and surrounding communities. Once complete, the upgraded systems and GIS data will ensure that emergency calls from landlines, mobile phones and internet-based devices are routed quickly and accurately with dispatchable location data to guide first responders, while being resilient against outages and capable of seamless coordination with other military and civilian emergency networks. By integrating GIS-based mapping, mobile applications and real-time data sharing, the project will streamline response efforts across the U.S. Army’s emergency infrastructure.

As part of this project, a combined team assembled from more than 300 GIS professionals from Michael Baker’s Geospatial Practice and DATAMARK Technologies will work together as One Michael Baker to provide local addressing program coordination with installation GIS teams, GIS data creation, data remediation, boundary facilitation and coordination with municipal PSAP and GIS departments, GIS quality control and validation and data development to support the U.S. Army’s CAD systems.

The project is a multi-year task order running through August 2030.
