NENA Company ID Registration Service
The evolution of telecommunications, i.e. Number Portability and Number Pooling, has necessitated the need to display Company Identifications (CIDs) of the associated Access Infrastructure Providers and Data Providers for each telephone number to the PSAP. This need is driven by two factors:
- Speed of identification by PSAPs
o Call Trace
o Trap and Trace
o Address Information
o Busy Line Verification and/or Interrupt
o CPE/Network Repair
o Security Concerns
- Data Base Management System Provider
– Supports tracking, completeness, and accuracy in 9-1-1 data record processing by both the Access Infrastructure Provider and the Data Provider.– Aids in the administration and management of discrepancy resolution among multiple companies.
Listing the registered Company IDs in the NENA Company ID database allows Access
Infrastructure Providers and Data Providers, states, counties, cities, and PSAPs to access and use the Company ID information. The NENA Company ID in the

The above rates are for each ID registered and administered by NENA. Please note it is not
necessary to be a NENA member to obtain a NENA Company ID. Once the NENA Company ID has been processed and assigned, NENA will invoice the company for the applicable fee.
The chosen Company ID code structure can be Alpha and/or Numeric, and should be easily identified as the company’s name and recognizable to the PSAP. All IDs in the database must be unique, and comprised of a minimum of three (3) characters and a maximum of five (5)..
The preferred method for answering the mandatory 24×7 telephone number is by trained personnel, not a pager or recording. In cases where a company requesting a NENA ID does not have 24×7 assistance, such as PS911 or small rural telephone companies, the daytime number (NOC/Repair) must have a recording indicating how someone from the company can be contacted after hours. This number will allow the PSAP to contact the company’s support center (i.e. a
NetworkOperationsCenter or NOC, and/or RepairCenter), for line interrupts, call traces, network outage, or other exigent circumstances.The listed Company Identifier shall be served by a single 24×7 telephone number. Multiple types of service may be selected as long as the 24×7 number is the same for all types of service. The area covered by the 24×7 number may be national, regional, a single state, or other combinations. Please concisely indicate coverage area in the “Area Supported” field by the use of two-character state abbreviations (OH, VA, CA, OK), or “ALL USA” to indicate all states. In the event of a
US territory, use US and the two-character abbreviation of the territory, example USVI, United States Virgin Islands. If a state is broken up into geographic categories, please indicate specific regional coverage to include specific county, city, or other geographic area including the state.NOTE: In general, the Canadian PSAPs, Local Service Providers and
9-1-1 Service Providers do not use the NENA Company ID registration. Throughout Canada, the provincial 9-1-1 Database Service Provider manages locally the assignment of all Local Service Provider ID (LSP ID) codes (Company ID) used in their territory. At this time, In three provinces (Ontario, Quebec and New Brunswick), both a Voice LSP ID and a Data LSP ID are used for each 9-1-1 transaction record and ALI display.The Admin Contact Person must verify the Company ID information on the NENA web page at least quarterly to ensure all data is accurate.

The 24×7 number reflected must be able to provide assistance for or access to the database contact, network contact, etc.
The following five statuses will be listed in the NENA Company ID database:
–
I: Inactive – no payment received within 6 months of billing– C: Cancelled – no payment in over 2 years OR an Acquisition/Merger/Consolidation
(CANCELLED – SEE NEWID) Old Company Name
EXAMPLE: (Cancelled – See VERIZ) GTE Telephone Operations
– O: Out of Business
– P: Pending Payment – used when issuing invoice to new company
When a company makes a change to its name due to a change in ownership, merger, etc., all Company ID’s must be updated with current and accurate contact information.
Making the required changes to your NENA Company ID will not initiate a change to the NENA Company ID populated on the records with the Data Provider. All records must reflect the correct Company ID of the Access Infrastructure Provider and/or Data Provider. To accomplish this, the new Company owner must contact each Data Provider and/or Database Management System Provider to coordinate the Company ID changes to the new ID. You may also need to contact the state PUC/PSC to provide the updated information.
Please contact NENA, at 800-332-3911, if you have any questions.
