The center will be specialized in receiving all emergency calls for the following security authorities: Public Security (Traffic -Special Forces for Road Security - Security Patrols), Civil Defense and Special Forces for Environmental Security according to international standards which guarantee response speed of the field teams regarding the start of the reports and following it up until their end.

The center has several partners, such as the Ministry of Transportation, Ministry of Health, Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs, Saudi Red Crescent, Saudi Electricity Company, and the National Water Company.

It is worth mentioning that the Unified Security Operations Center (911) is one of the important initiatives implemented by the Ministry of Interior in cooperation with the Quality of Life Program (one of Vision 2030 programs) with a view of achieving the program's goals.
