[NG911] doesnt mean that we can ignore problems with the 911 system of today. [O]ne of those problems happens too often when someone dials 911 in places like hotels, motels, office buildings, and schools that use [an] MLTS. I began an inquiry into the state of MLTS 911 [January 2014]. I sent letters to the CEOs of the ten largest hotel chains[.] I hope [that] the FCC can make those choices a little easier for you by [the FCC] fixing the problems of 911 on MLTS[.] 12. 2014 Avaya Inc.

Making the final technology selection, is a very specific decision for each customer, that is based on needs. The challenge most customers have is that they cannot articulate what they actually need. ! Under Buy ! Over Buy ! Wrong Technology ! Poor CSAT ! Poor Reflection on Avaya 43. 2014 Avaya Inc.
