IT Industry - Deals

Australian-listed health information technology company, iSOFT, continues its recent run of contract wins with today’s announcement of three new contracts secured in Australia and the UK valued at around $1.6 million.

The new agreements for provision of iSOFT’s Integra suite of Web-enabled financial and purchasing solutions, are with Australia’s St Vincent’s and Holy Spirit, Scope, a UK charity for people with disabilities, and UK housing association Spectrum Housing Group.
 
The new wins follow iSOFT’s 30 June announcement of contract wins in Germany and Malaysia worth more than $9 million over five years for deployment of the company’s Lorenzo e-health solution.

In today’s announcement on the latest contract wins, managing director of iSOFT Business Solutions, Eamonn Morris, said about $400,000 of the $1.6 million was for software licenses, $700,000 for implementation services, and $530,000 for support and maintenance over five years.

Morris said that, in its third contract for Integra in Australia, iSOFT would install a complete financial and e-purchasing solution for St Vincent’s and Holy Spirit, including modules for Web-requisitioning and business intelligence.
“iSOFT has identified a demand for modern, Web-based solutions that drive-out inefficiencies in finance and purchasing processes to reduce costs.”
