HERZLIYA, Israel, Jan. 30, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- SuperCom Ltd. (NASDAQ: SPCB), a global provider of Secure-Identity, IoT, Connectivity, and Cyber Security solutions for the global public and private sectors, announced today that it has secured a contract with the national government of Estonia to deploy its Pure Security Electronic Monitoring (EM) Suite with an emphasis on house arrest. This project was formally awarded in November 2018 through a formal bid process and the contract execution has just been approved allowing for project launch.
This nationwide program with the country's Ministry of Justice will cover all cases requiring house arrest within the country, with a simultaneous unit count starting at 200 and an option to grow up to 400. SuperCom has already received the initial order and follow-on orders may continue over time. The project will be billed at a per-unit daily rate and generate steady-state recurring revenues accordingly. The total duration of the contract is up to 4.5 years for an estimated contract size of $1.35M if the simultaneous unit count stays close to the starting count of 200, but this number may grow together with the simultaneous unit count.
"We are pleased to begin work on this contract award," said company President and CEO Arie Trabelsi. "As in many of our previous awards, we competed against other providers for this business and displaced the incumbent EM vendor who had been in place for the past 10 years in this country. We expect to begin generating recurring revenues from this new business within a few months of today's announcement, and we look forward to seeing additional wins around the globe as more and more countries shift to a more modernized approach to alternatives to incarceration such as our EM offerings."
SuperCom's PureSecurity Suite is a best-of-breed electronic monitoring and tracking platform, which contains a comprehensive set of innovative features, including smart phone integration, secure communication, advanced security, anti-tamper mechanisms, fingerprint biometrics, voice communication, unique touch screens and extended battery life.
