Capgemini has been selected by the Swedish Civil Defence and Resilience Agency to develop the Swedish Emergency Network (SWEN), a secure 5G-based communications platform for mission-critical services. This network will replace the existing Rakel system and is designed to enhance public safety, emergency response, healthcare, and civil defence communications. The SWEN will utilize a hybrid architecture combining state-controlled and commercial mobile networks to ensure security and coverage. Capgemini will oversee the integration, architecture, and operational readiness of the system, ensuring interoperability and rigorous security controls. The transition from the current TETRA system will occur gradually, with full migration expected by 2030. This initiative is a critical step in strengthening Sweden's crisis preparedness and civil defence capabilities.
