Our Project Seeks Funding to Procure Modern P-25-COMPLIANT Portable Radios, Enabling Seamless Communication Within and Between Emergency Response Agencies. the Ability to Communicate Directly With Each Other, Our Dispatcher, or Directly to Other Responders Through the Viper System Will Be a Major Improvement in Firefighter Safety and Incident Stabilization Capacity.

How to read these numbers

One award, start to finish: Everything here is this single award's whole record — signed, amended, paid — not a fiscal-year slice. The by-year charts elsewhere split an award across the years it was committed; this page keeps it whole.
Committed vs. ceiling: Committed is what the government has legally promised on this award so far. Contracts can also carry a ceiling — the maximum if every option is exercised. Unspent ceiling is headroom, not money owed.
Paid out: The cash actually disbursed against this award. The gap from committed is the disbursement pipeline: promised, not yet cashed.
The ledger: Each transaction is a signing event — an action that created or changed the award, dated the day it was signed — not a payment. Negative amounts are real: money de-committed at closeout or renegotiation.
The money bar: One bar, the award’s whole arithmetic: paid out, then committed, not yet paid, then .
