4Tell Solutions Canada issued the following announcement on March 6.

4tell™ Solutions, the leading provider of Capital Asset Performance Software, today announced that its authorization by the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program(FedRAMP) is underway through the sponsorship of the National Gallery of Art.

FedRAMP is a government-wide program that provides a standardized approach for assessing, authorizing and continuously monitoring the security of cloud products and services. When the 4tell Platform for Government™ is deemed “FedRAMP Ready” later this year, all federal agencies will find it much easier to acquire this unprecedented level of visibility and insight into portfolio needs and performance across the entire built environment.

“The 4tell Platform for Government redefines the role that analytics play,” said Jim Kavanagh, CEO of 4tell. “FedRAMP authorization allows our government clients to streamline procurement of the most advanced product suite in the market to transform their data into actionable insights and optimize capital asset performance.”

4tell’s commitment to cybersecurity and customer data protection informed every stage of design and development for their recently released Capital Asset Performance Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform. This effort replaced the company’s flagship product, iPlan™, which was first offered in 2008, with a complete redesign and a new approach to engaging users.

After extensive analysis of the available cloud infrastructure providers, 4tell chose Microsoft Azure on which to deploy and maintain its platform. “This was a critical decision we had to make,” stated Neal Tisdale, 4tell’s Chief Technology Officer, “and we could not be happier with the performance and security Azure provides our clients.”
