Crises Control, the mass notification, multi-channel, business continuity platform and crisis response solution has been just been listed on the latest government G-Cloud 8 framework, making it available to all public sector organisations.

We have been listed on previous G-Cloud frameworks, but we have now joined forces with UK Cloud Ltd to take advantage of their assured cloud services and provide the kind of information assurance needed by our public sector customers up to and including Official-Sensitive level.

Notes to Editors
The G-Cloud framework is an agreement between the government and suppliers who provide cloud-based services. The basic terms of use are agreed by both parties following a formal Official Journal of the European Union procurement process. This saves public sector organisations and suppliers the time and cost traditionally associated with individual procurement contracts. Buyers and suppliers still need to sign a ‘call-off contract’ for each service procured through a framework.
