Free web platform: the commitment of CAE to its customers during the lockdown

April 2020

As we already had the opportunity to discuss, even with the world in lockdown, the risk of extreme natural phenomena does not stop; for this reason, CAE has done everything to stay close to its customers at this difficult times. In particular, the company has made every effort to facilitate the work of its customers with an active maintenance contract for monitoring activities to be carried out in smart working mode during the COViD-19 emergency period, allowing the free use of AEGIS, a Cloud web platform useful for this purpose.

It is an advanced software, based on web-based technology useful for decision-making support allowing a real-time geo-spatial display of information from monitoring and warning systems. The platform is developed on an open source architecture and proves to be especially interoperable. AEGIS does not replace the software procedures already installed at the control centres, which are also available in remote access, but it supports them in order to facilitate and simplify as much as possible the use of data collected by the field monitoring infrastructures; moreover, it has been made available free of charge for the duration of the emergency and the restrictions on mobility required by the Italian government.

The DPCM (Prime Ministerial Decree) of March, 11th, 2020, recommended companies to implement as far as possible smart working methods for the activities that can be carried out at home or remotely. CAE wanted to go one step further and, in addition to allowing as many of its employees as possible to work efficiently in smart working, it committed itself to facilitating the work of its customers with an active maintenance contract, which they welcomed with enthusiasm.
