QVEC Call Answer Times
FOR THE SECOND STRAIGHT QUARTER THERE WAS NO PSAP IN THE STATE WITH A HIGHER CALL VOLUME THAT POSTED A BETTER CALL ANSWER PERCENTAGE THAN QVEC DID !!!!
For the period July 1, 2011 - September 30, 2011 QVEC answered 9,674 E-911 calls.  Of those calls answered, 9553 (98.7%) were answered in under 10 seconds.  101 calls (1%) were answered between 10-20 seconds and 19 calls (.2%) were answered between 20-30 seconds.  The National Emergency Number Association (NENA) standard states that 90% of all 911 calls shall be answered within 10 seconds and that 95% of all 911 calls shall be answered within 20 seconds.  The CT Statewide average for this same time period was 94.7%.
