The software anti-mafia Expo off at New Year – Radio Popolare (Satire) (press release) (blog)

Since 31 December 2015 the computer systems Si.G.Expo and Siprex have stopped working. The contract management and maintenance of the platforms which have enabled the Prefecture of Milan of combining data of the companies that have worked in the exhibition site is expired and there has been no extension to the end of the work in the Expo site. Now we are at the stage of dismantling, one of the most delicate to the mafia controls because the ground handling and waste disposal are among the sectors most infiltrated by organized crime. To date no other systems we have been activated.

Yet the risk was known for some time, had denounced the president’s anti-Mafia commission of the City of Milan David Gentili November 30 during a session of the city council: “the two platforms of the Expo, and Si.G.Expo Siprex, stop working at the end of December because the management contract expires on that date. Expo Why not least extension of another six months this contract? “Asked the Gentiles.

A few days earlier, on Nov. 24, 2015, the Commissioner of Expo Joseph Hall had written a letter to the Prefecture of Milan with the subject “closure of platforms and Si.G.Expo Siprex”. Hall informed the Prefecture that the contract management and maintenance was due to expire on 31 December 2015, that was not going to renew it and Expo that from 1 January 2016 platforms would have been inaccessible to the Prefecture. “Expo Spa holds the intellectual property of software,” he wrote still room “and supports the annual costs of maintenance and support.” costs that Expo will no longer support , a savings of a voice as delicate as that of the controls, in a construction site that will remain under the jurisdiction of Expo Spa until June 2016. In that letter the room proposes Prefecture buy the two systems. The Prefecture have had to buy an outlay of public money and Spa Expo could collect them and put them in the budget, but the operation was not completed.

Siprex and Si.G.Expo are the two software that allowed the Milan Prefecture of combining data from all companies that have worked inside the exhibition site and Si.G.Expo has read simultaneously, all the data of the companies present in the works related to Expo, as the Brebemi the Teem, the new metropolitan 4 (still under construction) and 5 of Milan, channeling thousands of data in a single platform. All easily accessible by men of the Prefecture and the DIA, the Anti-Mafia Investigation. They will now have to cross them manually those data, when available. Because there is a another piece in this affair: from December 1, 2015 Expo Spa has stopped adding companies and data to the system. The system in the last month of 2015 went on standby and has off forever New Year’s Day.

each other troubled from the beginning that Software mafia Expo. To win the first contract was the company Opera 21 , works for 41,000 euro no-bid average direct award. Opera 21 then failed and the business unit that dealt Expo was acquired by the Top Network Spa . In that time frame the Prefecture made use, at no additional cost, the computer system of the company Pegaso, already working on the construction sites of Teem. Top Network sued and won, Expo made a new call by invitation and the contract went to the Top Network. The notice on invitation remained outside the Pegasus, which Expo not invited to participate in the race. The story of this tormented contract Commissioner of Expo Hall was heard from the anti-Mafia parliamentary commission May 12, 2014. The anti-Mafia committee of the municipality of Milan chaired by Nando Dalla Chiesa ne spoke in relations five six published in 2014 and in April 2015, defining “insufficient” the answers and clarifications arrived from Sala Expo and society.
