TeleCommunication Systems announces that the company has signed a five-year contract extension with a Tier One U.S. wireless carrier to provide wireless E9-1-1 services through August 2016. TCS will continue supporting the carrier's emergency service needs to ensure that their wireless customers' distress calls are routed to the appropriate Public Safety Answering Point together with the caller's precise location information.

As PSAPs continue to evolve and incorporate cutting-edge technology for displaying caller locations, it is critical that carriers have access to the necessary services and support to ensure effective wireless E9-1-1 services. This contract extension allows the carrier to continue to focus on high-value wireless services to its millions of subscribers while TCS maintains the required wireless E9-1-1 emergency services.
