The Security and Emergency Management Division (SEMD) currently relies on multiple IT platforms to support emergency management (EM) planning, response, and recovery activities. These platforms are essential for both central and regional staff to ensure consistent information sharing and coordinated actions during emergencies. The current systems are disconnected, causing usability and data issues, and delays in information sharing.

Through this Request for Information (RFI), the Department of Education (DE) would like to understand what Emergency Management platforms exist in the market and to assess their potential alignment to SEMD’s requirements. In addition, the DE wishes to assess the feasibility of incorporating broader functional capabilities to support Business Continuity Management, Incident Management and Occupational Health, Safety & Well-being for schools as part of an enterprise platform.
