By Phil - 9 August 2013
Scientific Games has signed contracts to provide terminals, installation and support services for approximately 5,000 modular WAVE M lottery retail terminals and an AEGIS NGS Instant Game Engine for Norsk Tipping, the national lottery in Norway.
The contracts followed a competitive procurement. Scientific will provide maintenance and support for the terminals for five years following the date on which the first terminal is in commercial production. Terminal delivery and installation is expected to begin in April 2014. Scientific Games will also develop a state-of-the-art AEGIS NGS Instant Game Engine for Norsk Tipping and provide maintenance of the system for four years.
“We have worked closely with Scientific Games for seven years on several large technology projects,” stated Torbjorn Almlid, CEO of Norsk Tipping. “They understand our complex business needs and we trust their technological expertise and quality of service. We feel confident their modern terminals and instant game system will help to grow our sales.”
“As the existing supplier of terminals, an instant game system and recently deployed sports betting and numbers game engines, we are honored to be selected once again for these vital parts of Norsk Tipping’s business,” said John Donahue, Managing Director, International Lottery Systems for Scientific Games. “We have proven we have the embedded knowledge and world-class technology to enable our customers to launch products more quickly and seamlessly than in the past. We look forward to continuing our long relationship with Norsk Tipping.”
