The departments of Homeland Security, Justice and Treasury plan to seek proposals for their joint Integrated Wireless Network this summer.

The IWN Joint Program Office plans to issue a statement of objectives in June or July.

The statement will form the basis for a two-stage procurement: Would-be contractors will propose responses to the government's request and then be winnowed down for a second fly-off phase.

In the second phase, the IWN team will disclose details of its Seattle pilot project and other information for vendors to use in refining their proposals.
