Judging by the number of deployments and the wide range of the applications, the government sector stands out as a leader in its use of wireless. In fact, a recent survey by Market Research Media Ltd of nearly 200 government agencies and of 200 large private sector companies determined that the government sector is the leading adopter of wireless technology when compared with large private-sector companies. Wireless voice and data applications poised for continued growth in government, assuming that concerns about security of mobile communications can be resolved.

The U.S. Government wireless voice and data spending over the next few years will be driven by the following major forces:

• Pressure to cut IT/telecom budgets without losing efficiency, and the implementation of new technologies;
• Pressure to resolve interoperability issues for public safety and emergency networks;
• Impact of the Global Information Grid (GIG) project. GIG is an all-encompassing communications project of the United States Department of Defense. It is defined as a “globally interconnected, end-to-end set of information capabilities for collecting, processing, storing, disseminating, and managing information on demand to warfighters, policy makers, and support personnel.” The GIG includes owned and leased communications and computing systems and services, software (including applications), data, security services, other associated services, and National Security Systems.
• Impact of the National Broadband Plan under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, providing $7 billion in broadband network loans and grants.

Market Research Media forecasts that the U.S. government wireless voice and data spending (services and equipment) will maintain fast growth, 13.8% CAGR, over the next six years.
