The creation of the backup server center (BSC) is aimed at increasing the viability of Armenia’s system of state governance in emergency situations. The BSC, which is situated In the administrative building of the RA Ministry of Emergency Situations was designed for providing timely organization of civil protection emergency activities in peacetime and civil defense management in wartime; for keeping the information secure and using it in a safe and efficient way; as well as for centralizing the backup information systems of state offices and facilitating their operation.

Designed to the highest quality, fuel-efficiency, reliability and environmental standards, the 3-phase Perkins P440E 400-Volt generator diesel generator set is capable of producing 360kW (kilowatt) of electrical energy within an hour.

“No matter in business or state infrastructure, full readiness to preventing and managing disaster situations efficiently is a priority. Priority presupposes availability and allocation of proper resources, including critical equipment. This is especially critical in case of our country, having multiple challenges we are all aware of. Here from comes our readiness to share with the Ministry of Emergency with an analogue of the highest quality equipment used by VivaCell-MTS for supporting key infrastructure in the case of extraordinary and emergency situations. We spare no effort at supporting the state when it comes to creating effective mechanisms of preventing and managing disaster situations,” VivaCell-MTS General Manager Ralph Yirikian noted.
