No-obligation proposal. # Massamá and Monte Abraão: new server, UPS and backups At a glance For decision-makers short on time. - 01 In 2022, a public contract awarded DataRoad the local authority's new server. - 02 Scope: business server, UPS and local and cloud backups, with full migration. - 03 IT consultancy included at every stage of the project. - 04 Result: more stable, secure and continuous services for residents. ### In this article **When a parish council's server stops, so does its service to the public: certificates, case files, payments.** To remove that risk, the União das Freguesias de Massamá e Monte Abraão awarded DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting, through a public contract in 2022, the renewal of its server infrastructure: a new business server, UPS power protection and local and cloud backups, with full migration of the systems and consultancy from start to finish. ## What problem does this investment solve? Three risks at once. Ageing hardware that can fail without warning. Power cuts that shut systems down in the middle of an operation. Data stored in a single place. Each component of the project tackles one of them. | Risk | Response | | --- | --- | | Server at end of life | High-performance business server, installed and configured from scratch | | Power failures | A UPS system to keep services running and shut down safely | | Data loss | Backups created and validated in two layers: local and cloud | | Risky transition | Controlled migration of data and configurations to the new platform | | Technical decisions without support | Specialist IT consultancy at every stage | The infrastructure was also reviewed to gain security and efficiency. ## How was it contracted? Through a public procurement procedure, published on the Base.gov.pt portal. It is DataRoad's usual framework with public bodies: clear rules, a written scope and unequivocal accountability. **Fact sheet:** client União das Freguesias de Massamá e Monte Abraão · public sector · year 2022 · areas covering structured cabling, firewall and security, servers and infrastructure, and IT Unlimited. ## What do residents gain? - **Stable service** Applications running on current equipment. - **Protected data** Backups kept in two separate locations. - **Immunity to power cuts** An electrical failure no longer brings the front desk down. - **Continuity** Counters and services running without interruption. The relationship with this local authority did not end there: the same União das Freguesias chose DataRoad, again through a public tender, to [migrate around 50 mailboxes to Microsoft 365](https://www.dataroad-it.com/en/massama-monte-abraao-exchange-online-migration/).
