Main projects

Project	Development of a rostering system for Brazilian air traffic controllers	Exchange of patient information between Lithuania and EU countries	AI-based X-ray image analysis system (DIRVA) for Lithuanian customs	Defence projects under a European Defence Fund programme	Smooth implementation of a business analytics tool for Mantinga
Scope	Novian Pro is developing an information system for scheduling the work of Brazilian air traffic controllers. The new system will be built for Brazil's main airspace control system organization, the Department of Airspace Control (DECEA) of the Brazilian Air Force (FAB) under the Ministry of Defence. It will permit the assessment of scheduling needs for air traffic controllers at two of Brazil's four air traffic control centres – in Curitiba and Recife – based on expected flights and availability.	To enable the exchange of summary patient data with national contact centres of other European Union (EU) countries, Novian Systems is expanding the information system of the Lithuanian National eHealth Contact Centre at the Centre of Registers and is also developing the necessary integrations.	Novian software development companies and Rubedo Systems are creating a system that can analyse X-ray images of all types of rail freight wagons, containers and trucks from customs inspection systems, detect suspicious objects, and provide the results of the analysis. The aim is to analyse an X-ray image within 10 seconds and provide an overall assessment within 20 seconds. The system is being developed within the framework of the "Modernization of Customs Risk Management" project funded under the "Next Generation Lithuania" Economic Recovery and Resilience Facility.	Novian Pro as a consortium member carries out the ODIN'S EYE II project to develop an early warning system for ballistic missile threats and has launched the SESIOP project which aims to help improve interoperability between civil and military air traffic management. The projects are funded under a European Defence Fund programme.	As part of a move to a new enterprise resource planning (ERP) system by the Mantinga group, a producer of bread, snacks and frozen goods, Novian Systems upgraded its business analytics tool. After analysis, Microsoft Power BI was chosen, and a model for that business intelligence tool was developed based on the needs of the company's business management systems, data for analysis and reports.
Benefits	It will also enable the assignment of personnel to shifts in keeping with their competencies and the planning of their work and rest times during shifts as well as of their long-term needs. The new system will be developed on the basis of a prototype that Novian Pro developed for DECEA in 2020.	Following the upgrades, Lithuanian healthcare institutions will be able to see the information of visiting patients from other EU countries and Lithuanian citizens travelling to other EU countries will be able to get better quality medical care based on the summary data of their	The new system aims to speed up analysis of X-ray images and improve detection of infringements through more accurate and objective analysis, thus making the surveillance of international trade at the country's customs posts more effective.	The selected projects will help to further develop first-class EU defence capabilities in critical areas.	A lot of attention was also given to a smooth transition from one ERP system to the other. The project ensured a smooth changeover, so the business felt any possible changes as little as possible and retained the data it needed.

Main projects

Project	Vilnius University – NVIDIA GPU accelerated infrastructure for human genome research	Modernization of computer workstations at Lithuanian courts	Digitization services for the National Archives of Sweden	Creation of Sint Maarten Digitalization Centre and digitization of documents	Deployment of cybersecurity solutions at the National Bank of Rwanda
Scope	This project developed GPU-accelerated infrastructure for research on the human genome. This advanced technology enables researchers to perform complex genetic computations faster and more efficiently, thus accelerating access to new knowledge in the field of biomedicine. The infrastructure uses NVIDIA GPU technologies known for their ability to process large amounts of data, thus enabling thorough genetic analysis and testing of new methods of analysis by exploiting the capabilities of machine learning neural networks.	883 laptops and accessories were upgraded at Lithuanian courts. These computers were acquired with an extended warranty and additional maintenance services in order to extend their life and minimize electronic equipment waste. This approach of renewing computer workstations with an extended warranty and additional maintenance services encourages long-term product use, thus creating value for the organization and the environment and promoting sustainable consumption.	The Digitization Unit at the National Archives of Sweden has selected Zissor as its provider of digitization services for the coming six years. The archive will be provided with Zissor Content System software, which automates the conversion of imaged document information, mainly publications that are being digitized, into digital content. Maintenance services are also being provided and new needs may be integrated.	As part of the country's Digital Government Transformation Project, Novian Technologies signed a contract with Sint Maarten's National Recovery Programme Bureau, acting on behalf of the Government of Sint Maarten, and, together with Novian Eesti, started a project to establish the Sint Maarten Digitalization Centre within the Department of Informatie Voorzieningen of the Government of Sint Maarten. The project is carried out together with Digital Leadership Team of Sint Maarten Government and will involve putting in place all infrastructure needed for this purpose, from critical IT infrastructure and software to scanners. The project also includes the recruitment and training of the necessary staff on the Island of Sint Maarten and the implementation and integration of the digitization process.	A new firewall solution was implemented, creating two-tier security architecture. This multi-zone security architecture was chosen to ensure the protection of sensitive information. For this solution we drew on two of the world's leading vendors in the area of security and introduced two-factor authentication for users to connect to the bank's internal systems.

Benefits

In addition to helping scientists gain a deeper understanding of the human genome, the project opens up new opportunities for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, using existing and developing new bioinformatics analysis algorithms and techniques, including artificial intelligence.

The solution was adopted on the basis of environmental and sustainability principles, with the aim of reducing the negative environmental impact and promoting a responsible product lifecycle.

This contract is an extension of Zissor's work with the National Archives of Sweden since 2011. During this time, Zissor technology is estimated to have helped to digitize some 37 million pages of publications.

The project aims to improve the delivery of public e-services and resilience to disasters. 432,000 documents (about 4.15 million pages) will be digitized: the information will be scanned and indexed using metadata, and the digitized documents will be uploaded into a document management system.

The project provided the National Bank of Rwanda with cyber security solutions that are in line with best practices. The solution ensures secure domestic and international banking operations.
