Description

The MAIT (Multi Agency Information Transfer) project is a government standard part of a program to improve incident communications between the Emergency Services.
The Cabinet Office has initiated a project to provide a facility to pass incident details between Emergency Service Control Rooms and other agencies such as the Highways Agency and local authorities.

The basis of the interface is the existing Highways Agency interface, used by the
police to send incidents to, and receive incidents from the Highways Agency.

For the HM Coastguard operations, for both Maritime and Aviation to be compatible and meet the MAIT requirements, there is a requirement to the ATOS Communications HUB to be able to send and received the agreed message format for operational teams to be able to act upon the data received or transfer vital incident information between other agencies.

The Communications Hub used by operations, is ATOS propriety product that requires the MAIT integration and cannot be produced or supported by other parties. Only ATOS can provide the Hub solution at this time to include the MAIT requirements.
