Two-Way Radio & GPS Fleet Tracking for Government & Municipal Operations
From dispatch to the drainage crew, COMSERV Services keeps every department of your city or county connected — police, fire, EMS, public works, sanitation, water, parks, and fleet services — with professional Kenwood radio and GPS systems built for the demands of public service.
Communications Built for Every Municipal Operation
A municipality is one of the most demanding communication environments anywhere. Police, fire, and EMS answer calls around the clock. Public works crews spread across streets, drainage ditches, and construction zones. Sanitation trucks, water and wastewater facilities, parks, and fleet services all run on separate schedules — yet every one of them has to coordinate with the others, especially when weather or an emergency changes the day's plan. A dead zone or a dropped transmission isn't an inconvenience; it can slow a response or put a crew at risk.
COMSERV Services has equipped government and municipal operations across the Mid-South with professional two-way radio systems that deliver clear, dependable communication in every department. We start with an on-site coverage survey, then design systems that reach radio dead spots other networks miss — from wastewater treatment plants and lift stations to courthouse basements and park facilities. We build dedicated talk groups for each department and give management and emergency management the ability to communicate across all of them when the situation demands it.
Who Uses Radios at Your Municipality
Department by Department
How We Serve Every Team in Your City
Police & Law Enforcement
Police communications cannot fail. Officers need clear, instant contact with dispatch and backup on every shift — on patrol, on foot, and inside buildings where portable coverage is hardest to deliver. Our Kenwood NX-series digital radios and EFJohnson Viking P25 radios support P25 systems for law enforcement, with dedicated channels, encrypted-capable talk groups, and the coverage design that keeps officers connected from the street to the station. When every second counts, the radio is the tool that decides the response.
Fire & EMS
Fire and EMS crews operate in the worst radio conditions in public safety — inside concrete structures, below grade, and in areas where portable coverage determines whether crews inside a structure can reach command. We design and install repeater and in-building systems that eliminate dead zones in stations and across the response area, and we spec radios built to take the abuse of the job. Our team understands NFPA 1221 requirements for in-station emergency notification and designs alerting systems that wake a sleeping crew fast.
Emergency Management & EOC
When a storm, flood, or major incident hits, the EOC becomes the coordination point for every department — and cellular networks are not designed to handle mass, simultaneous call volume from a limited area. Two-way radio is. We build the cross-department talk groups, base stations, and backup paths that let emergency management staff talk to police, fire, public works, and sanitation on their own channels, then bring every department together on a common channel when the situation demands it. Our systems are engineered to keep operating when other infrastructure does not.
Public Works & Streets
Public works and streets crews are spread across the entire city — patching pavement, clearing drainage, responding to storm debris — often in areas where cell coverage is unreliable. Radios keep every crew connected to dispatch and to each other without a monthly per-user cost, so crews can coordinate traffic control, call for a backhoe, and report a hazard the moment they see it. Rugged mobiles in trucks and portables with vehicle-charging capability keep crews on the air from first call to last.
Sanitation & Solid Waste
Sanitation crews work fast routes across the whole city, and a stopped truck is a missed neighborhood. Mobile radios with GPS tracking let supervisors see every collection vehicle in real time, reroute crews when a street is blocked, and respond instantly to a missed pickup or a damaged cart. Digital audio stays clear over engine and compactor noise, so drivers and helpers can communicate with dispatch without repeating a call twice.
Water & Wastewater
Water and wastewater operations run around the clock across pump stations, treatment plants, and underground infrastructure — often in basements, wet wells, and other below-grade spaces where radio coverage is hardest to deliver. We design repeater systems that reach these dead spots, and we equip operators with portables rated for wet, harsh environments. When a lift station alarm goes off at 2 a.m., the on-call operator gets the call directly — and gets there faster.
Parks & Recreation
Parks and recreation staff cover ball fields, community centers, pools, trails, and special events — often across multiple sites in the same shift. Lightweight portables with long battery life keep event staff, grounds crews, and front-desk teams connected without carrying bulky equipment. Separate talk groups keep recreation programming, maintenance, and events organized, while supervisors can reach any staff member instantly when a situation arises.
Code Enforcement & Inspections
Code enforcement officers and building inspectors work alone, often in neighborhoods and structures where conditions can change quickly. A reliable portable keeps every officer in contact with the office and with police or fire when a situation escalates. Officers can call for a second unit, document site conditions with dispatch, and coordinate inspections across the department without waiting on a callback. Discreet earpieces and compact form factors make the radio easy to carry on foot all day.
Municipal Fleet Services
The fleet garage keeps hundreds of vehicles ready for service, and every one of them is a communication asset when it rolls out. We upfit police vehicles, fire apparatus, public works trucks, and sanitation trucks with mobile radios, GPS tracking, lightbars, sirens, and console systems — installed in-house by our own technicians, with no subcontractors and a multi-day build for full vehicle upfitting. Fleet managers get real-time vehicle location, route history, and maintenance alerts that keep every unit accounted for.
