BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
Emergency Management Ontario (EMO) deals with operational resiliency in times of emergency. It provides OPS-wide Incident/Emergency Management, Business Continuity Management and Disaster Recovery services, and co-ordinates Ontario provincial support for Ontario communities, the Canadian federal government, neighbouring provinces and other countries in an emergency.
Emergency Management in Ontario supports three types of emergencies (which are not mutually exclusive):
1. Non-nuclear emergencies affecting Ontario communities, and/or other provinces, Canada or international;
2. Nuclear emergencies in Ontario or neighbouring jurisdictions;
3. Business continuity emergencies affecting the OPS.
EMO is tasked with ensuring resiliency by facilitating coordinating of province-wide EM and, where response to emergencies is required, the Provincial Emergency Operations Centre (PEOC) of the Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services (MCSCS), which is responsible for support or direction in community emergencies. Within the EMO, the Continuity of Operations (COOP) section is responsible for OPS-internal emergencies while 13 Order-in-Council (OIC) Ministries are charged with specific responsibilities for support for 37 specific types of emergencies. Each of the Cluster I&IT organizations support Ministry COOP efforts with IT Business Continuity Management (BCM) and Enterprise IT Disaster Recovery Management (DRM) supported by the Corporate Security Branch (CSB), ITS Corporate Services/Datacenters and I&IT Clusters of the Office of Corporate Chief Information Officer (OCCIO).
During the last Business Architecture review it was identified:
- Manual processes and many tools for Emergency management and business continuity planning
- Three related standalone business domains ? emergency response, business continuity and disaster recovery
- Pressing demand and existing vulnerabilities ? have had years of end user concerns identifying need for a coordinated, responsive, effective and user friendly set of solutions resulting in the development of silos over time
- Technology applications and tools in this area are not coordinated ? combinations of Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) and MS Office products across multiple business areas
- The result ? need to transform the use of human and technical resources into an integrated solution to support an effective and coordinated provincial response to emergencies.
An RFP was completed and a vendor has been contracted to provide integrated business support software subsystems and to build the interconnectivity with specific existing OPS components and tools. Justice Technology Services (JTS) will further integrate these subsystems with other components and subsystems into an Emergency Management Enterprise Solution (EMES) that supports the business and operational requirements of the Government of Ontario?s Incident/Emergency Management, Continuity of Operations/Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery business programs and services.
A senior Project Manager is required to lead the implementation of the acquired integrated emergency management software and its integration to OPS components.
