We had a technical team—a very small mobile centre of excellence team—that was just getting off the ground and working in mobile. When this pandemic hit and the Public Health Agency of Canada came to us in urgency, requesting this capability for mobile to deal with the contact tracing, we had to look for options. We went to our teams and asked them for options.
This one surfaced as a viable option. It was based on a few things, or more than a few: security; the ability to provide a secured, protected e-cloud; the ability to have secured resources; the skill sets, etc. When they took all that into consideration, a viable option that came to the top, if you will, was this proposal. Again, I just forwarded it on to the CIO.
