Surge CoS - Digital Systems

[tovari]

Please rename the current “Information Technology & Telecom (IT/T)” page in the Catalogue of Surge Services, and replace it with the rebranded sector for “Digital Systems, Tools & Information Technology”:

Digital Systems, Tools & Information Technology global Surge service covers both Telecommunication and Digital system & tools needs of an operation.

Information Technology and Telecom surge service is mainly the IT/TEL ERU. This unit establishes local communication networks and links between the field and the secretariat, to ensure the smooth flow of information to assist operational coordination. The ERU has a range of technology such as satellite phones, high-frequency and very high frequency radio systems, depending on the geographical location and local legal situation.

Digital system surge service ensures the selection and integration of systems and tools tailored to local user needs and contexts, for the surge operations and beyond, while considering factors like data laws, cost, and local capacity. It strengthens the IM function, allowing it to focus on its core responsibilities, by handling complex system implementation, enabling faster, higher-quality, and more relevant assistance delivery.
