Prokom signs distribution deal with Peregrine Systems

Systems integrator Prokom Software S.A. signed a contract with Peregrine Systems for distribution of Infrastructure Resource Planning (IRP) systems. Peregrine Systems had revenues of $250 million last year and is listed on the Nasdaq. Prokom hopes to gain $10 million in revenues in three years from selling those systems on the Polish market, as licenses Prokom will sell for the systems will cost firms having more than 5,000 PC's $250,000. "Firms have to invest in information structures, as it not only makes management easier and decreases costs, but also raises the value of an enterprise," says of strategic customers branch management board spokesman Jozef Ludwicki.
