The Argent team also manages the procurement of Motorola equipment required to deploy at the locations. This includes site buildings (if appropriate), tower equipment, radio transmitter racks, generators, etc. In addition, the Argent team procures dispatch consoles, car radios and portable radios needed for the city.
