Next Generation Critical Communications' technology services and infrastructure enable the emergency services to maintain law and order, keep people safe, protect life and property, and deal with health events through reliable mission-critical frontline communications.
Next Generation Critical Communications is responsible for delivering the new Public Safety Network on behalf of Fire and Emergency New Zealand, Police, Hato Hone St John and Wellington Free Ambulance. The Public Safety Network is the most significant advance in New Zealand’s public safety communications in decades to benefit our emergency services and the safety and wellbeing of all New Zealanders. We also provide Location Information Services that help the emergency services locate the mobile phones of people needing help.
From 1 July 2026, NGCC will offer PSN Cellular Services to eligible organisations involved in public safety and emergency management supporting a lift in critical communications capability for the wider sector.
