MOU Local to Local Template Guide


This Local to Local Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Template is one of eight guidance documents featured in the Formal Agreement and Standard Operating Procedure Template Suite and Reference Library.  The Template Suite and Reference Library provide members of the emergency response community with the guidance they need to construct their own formal agreements and standard operating procedures (SOPs) relating to communications interoperability.  The Template Suite provides guidance for the construction of a Charter, Executive Order, Local to Local MOU, State to Local MOU, System to System Console Patch SOP, Mobile Gateway Patch SOP, Shared Channel SOP, Shared System SOP, and Radio Cache SOP.  When leveraging the Suite, emergency responders are encouraged to also review the real-world Charter, Executive Order, MOU, and SOP examples contained within the Reference Library. 

The Template Suite is available on the SAFECOM Web site here.  In addition, both the Template Suite and Reference Library are available through the National Public Safety Telecommunications Council National Interoperability Information eXchange (NIIX) Web site.  The NIIX Web site is accessible at www.niix.org.
