Contract Win

Contract Award

Intercede is pleased to announce the award of a major contract in support of a large scale government security program. Contracts have been signed and the first purchase order has been received, with a value in excess of £600,000. However, it is expected that, subject to performance, the contract value to Intercede is likely to exceed £1.5 million in the current financial year and £10 million over a five year period.

Under this program, Intercede is contracted to a multinational prime contractor who in turn is contracted to a government agency in a G8 nation.

This contract had been expected to make a material contribution to the financial year closing 31 March 2013 but procurement delays by the contracting government caused slippage into the following period.

Richard Parris, Intercede Chairman and Chief Executive said:

"This award is the result of a two year competitive procurement process by a knowledgeable end-customer. The prime contractor is also one of the world's most sophisticated systems integrators. I am delighted that both parties selected Intercede's MyID platform as their preferred 'best of breed' solution. Our success in securing this position underpins Intercede's reputation as the world's leading identity and credential management systems provider for homeland security projects."
