Mobile Command Center Renovations & Upgrades
Extend the Life and Capability of Your Existing MERC Units
Projects range from targeted enhancements—such as adding a pneumatic mast or AVL VSAT satellite system—to full interior and exterior renovations. Our team evaluates each unit and delivers practical, cost-effective improvements that restore performance, improve reliability, and extend service life.
Engineered for Power, Connectivity, and Rapid Response
CCS offers drive-away MERC units in multiple configurations to support workspace requirements, off-road capability, IT rack capacity, and mission-specific workflows. Every platform centers on two critical foundations: dependable power and resilient network connectivity.
To sustain continuous operations, CCS partners with trusted mobile power providers such as Cummins Onan, Engine Power Source, MultiQuip, and Durawatt, ensuring each MERC vehicle delivers the power required for real-world response scenarios. This robust power architecture allows first responders and command staff to operate critical systems confidently in urban, rural, or disaster environments.
The true advantage of a drive-away MERC lies in its fully integrated communications suite. CCS-certified technicians configure advanced systems spanning LEO and GEO satellite platforms, 5G and LTE (including FirstNet®), land mobile radio, dispatch consoles, interoperability solutions, Wi-Fi and MESH networking, Hosted VoIP and SIP services, HF radio, CBRS/private LTE, video surveillance, drone integration, and AI-enabled applications. The result: a mobile command vehicle that keeps teams connected, informed, and mission-ready wherever they deploy.
