PMDC

October PMDC Notification Points

The Premier MDC functionality will remain supported by the Department of Innovation and Technology until June 30, 2024. The Premier MDC services will not be available for purchase from the State after this date.

However, The State of Illinois has a statewide master contract that covers Premier MDC with Motorola. Services can be purchased by local agencies off this contract today. This master contract is a ten-year contract that expires June 2033. We strongly encourage agencies to start this process as soon as possible.

This page will be updated as needed.
