WATCH4NET Solutions was chosen to implement an integrated system
intended to ensure optimum service quality for the RCMPs
information system. This system, which will be deployed on sites
across Canada, responds to three types of needs: real-time
monitoring of efficient systems operations (availability,
performance), network analysis (inventory, traffic distribution)
and capacity planning. This project represents a total budget of
nearly 1 millions $CDN over the first five years.
After an initial phase of writing specifications, a public call
for tenders was issued in 2001, with WATCH4NET Solutions coming
in first, in partnership with InfoVista, a leading provider of
performance software solutions. The main selection criteria
concerned the technical quality of the bid, the quality of the
response (proposed architecture and project methodology), the
similar references and the price. A proof of concept was then
developed to validate the proposals retained.
From a software standpoint, WATCH4NET Solutions offering relies
on the InfoVista product for data collection and report
generation, on ServerAnalysis SNMP agents for systems and
applications monitoring, and on Cisco router on-board agents for
network statistics. This solution constitutes a system composed
of complementary tools, based on standards, and totally
integrated with the applications already present at the RCMP.
This project will interface with the existing administrative
applications, and altogether will provide the RCMP with all the
necessary tools to supervise, configure and monitor systems, the
network and the applications. The project is currently in the
integration phase and will be deployed gradually.
