Origen’s Emergency Management System provides all the necessary event logging and message management required by New Zealand's Civil Defence Crisis management centres. Events or incidents are recorded in the application, messages may then be created with tasks associated and allocated to individuals or other organisations, such as Welfare or Police. Tasks remain outstanding until relevant responses are received, when the task status will be updated. The product uses Microsoft's windows graphical user interface (GUI) to provide a look and usability that are familiar to both experienced and casual users alike, allowing a short training period and rapid take up by new users of the system.
