A Common Operational Picture for Covid-19 response

As part of the National Board of Health and Welfare’s situational awareness system, Exonaut has contributed common operational pictures for various target groups on local, regional and national levels and supported the Board’s resource allocation assignments. This project lies at the core of 4C’s mission to build a safer society, according to Mikael Grape, Managing Director of 4C Strategies: “The confidence from the National Board of Health and Welfare to help in a critical situation means a lot to us. In a very short time, we were able to launch a secure, user-friendly and robust reporting tool that contributed to the important national resource coordination during the pandemic”.

The Situational Awareness solution coordinated the COVID-19 response efforts in four main areas:

• Collection of COVID-19 data and resource requests using the Exonaut survey tool
• Aggregation and visualisation of data in Common Operational Picture dashboards
• Resource management to assign and track medical equipment, supplies and personnel
• Automated reporting of pandemic data

4C Strategies’ business concept is to contribute to a safer society through the Exonaut® software suite and consulting services. The situational awareness system is now being transferred to the National Board of Health and Welfare’s regular activities, and we thank them for excellent collaboration in the very difficult circumstances of this global pandemic. Klas Lindström, 4C Strategies’ Deputy CEO, adds “I also want to highlight the great effort made by many employees at 4C Strategies who, under the high-pressure situation that unfolded in the spring, were able to quickly meet the National Board of Health and Welfare’s needs and contribute to national pandemic management.”
