“Data also has a place in the organization of sporting events, especially to ensure their smooth running and safety. The uses are not necessarily visible to spectators and athletes. <\/p>\n\n

A \u201cdigital revolution\u201d at the Ministry of the Interior<\/h2>\n\n

The two major international events were long-awaited. In order to guarantee security, the state set up a new entity in 2023, the National Strategic Command Center (CNCS). But it was also necessary to give it the organizational and technological means to fulfil its missions. <\/p>\n\n

The answer was a \u201cdigital revolution\u201d <\/strong>and a method revolution<\/strong>. This revolution took place at the Ministry of the Interior and its Digital Transformation Directorate (DTNUM), says Colonel Christophe Deshayes, Chief of Staff of the CNCS. <\/p>\n\n

For major events, the state relies in principle on the CIC, the interministerial crisis cell<\/strong>, which reports to the Prime Minister. Operational management is generally entrusted to the Interior, in coordination with all departments. <\/p>\n\n

The daily transfer of information to the national level is based on existing IS, especially at the prefecture level. The data are then consolidated at national level. <\/p>\n\n

The model works, but could be improved. \u201cWe were missing an integration tool,<\/strong>\u201d says CNCS. The solution had to reduce (or even eliminate) the re-capture of information, ingesting data from systems, but also from other sources. <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

Mission impossible at the Olympic Games without a new dedicated tool<\/h2>\n\n

The purpose? \u201cUnify all the information, synthesize it through reporting, allow real-time analysis and much faster to clarify the situation for our authorities for decision making.<\/strong>\u201d , explains Christophe Deshayes. (…) <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n
<\/div>\n\n
\n

The \u201cunprecedented scale of this global event\u201d has convinced us that we need to build our own a new digital ecosystem that allows for the integration of large volumes of data, from the Ministry of the Interior, but also from other ministries, open sources, organizer data, All for real-time tracking through the most contextualised information possible.<\/strong><\/p>\nColonel Christophe Deshayes to MagIT<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

The expectations of the trades in 2020 and 2021, made possible by the feedback from previous Olympiads, including the London Games, allowed DTNum to launch the reflection and development of the future platform built on the technology of the French publisher Suadeo. <\/strong>(…) <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

From 300 to 20 real-time geolocation data sets<\/h2>\n\n

“The trades were offered, the DTNum specified the need, and Suadeo set up its platform accordingly.” Iterations continued for 12 to 15 months, including after the Rugby World Cup in September and October 2023, the platform\u2019s first \u201ctest match\u201d.<\/p>\n\n

For example, 300 data sets were used at the Oval Ball Festival. (…) For the Paris Games, 15 to 20 datasets were finally used, \u201cbut completely geolocated and in real time to allow decision-making.\u201d (…) <\/p>\n\n

During the transitional phase between the two sporting events, the platform was migrated to the sovereign cloud of the Ministry of the Interior (Cloud Pi) <\/strong>(…). <\/p>\n\n

It was through an iterative process that the Data (or hypervision) platform was supplemented by applications necessary for collaboration and real-time information sharing<\/strong>. The result was a break in tooling<\/strong> (Excel, PowerPoint) and working method <\/strong>(department and interdepartmental). (…) <\/p>\n\n

During the JO, more than 500 messages per day were captured and shared in what has become \u201cthe main collaborative tool of the ministry <\/strong>and all other departmental operators\u201d. (…) <\/p>\n\n

The information is filled in by the prefectures and then automatically aggregated into a report that can be used directly at a situation point. This document was previously done manually on PowerPoint. <\/p>\n\n

With the platform, the construction of a point of situation works like a customizable assembly of components or legos. (…) <\/p>\n\n

Each department and directorate has been able to use these HR features to educate their staff and manage their resources. (…) <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n

Digital transformation with cultural change<\/h2>\n\n

For the CNCS Colonel, technology is only one part of the project. <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n
\n

\u201cDevelopments and digital transformation have been used to support our cultural change: the consideration of the \u201creputational\u201d, data integration, the ability to process large volumes of data and detect weak signals.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\nColonel Christophe Deshayes to MagIT<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n

For him, the platform is part of a broader digital ecosystem that includes tools, but also \u201chuman and collective\u201d at an interdepartmental level. As for the processes, they were built in parallel with the development of the platform. (…) <\/p>\n\n

<\/div>\n\n
\n

\u201cDigital transformation was implemented for the largest international event a country could host. And it worked. (…) We demonstrated that the CNCS and its new digital ecosystem, its new way of working collectively, had worked, and even worked very well. […] We could go even further. But now is the time to do it.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\nColonel Christophe Deshayes to MagIT<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n
