Rome / Bergamo, September 28, 2021– the meetings of AlmavivA’s and Aruba’s Boards of Directors were held today. During the respective meetings, the joint proposal for the creation and management of the National Strategic Pole (PSN) for the Cloud was approved. The PSN is the key infrastructure for hosting the data and services of the PA, considered by the PNRR and by the guidelines of the Ministry for Innovation and Digital Transition to be a strategic macro-action in the digital evolution of public administration.

AlmavivA’s and Aruba’s proposal, presented as a public-private partnership (PPP) in accordance with the regulatory framework, meets the technical and flexibility requirements described in the Italy Cloud Strategy thanks to the complementary nature of the two companies and a complete Value Proposition that covers all services, and responds to the PA’s indications regarding the sensitivity of different types of data, providing a time horizon and resources that are consistent with the framework established by the PNRR.

Aruba and AlmavivA are fully Italian owned and operated companies, known for their economic and financial soundness. The proposal that has been developed emphasizes the immediate availability of infrastructures, together with the technological excellence and environmental sustainability that distinguish them, capable of accelerating the migration plan, with milestones for improvement with respect to the planning of the PNRR itself.
