Siemens-Prokom sign zl.55 million IT deal with universities

The contract for the delivery of hardware, implementation and support of integrated management system for universities has been signed with Warsaw Technical University, Jagiellonian University, Maria Curie-Sklodowska University and Silesian University. "The agreement is something more than a commercial agreement. These four schools are blazing the trail and creating foundations for the computerization of higher education institutions," said Wlodzimierz Kurnik, the dean of Warsaw Technical University. The consortium is very pleased with this outcome. "The merger of history, tradition and prestige with business knowledge is a guarantee of success," said Krzysztof Ducal, director of Siemens Business Services. The implementation will take roughly three years to be completed, which is the regular time frame for such projects.(Puls Biznesu, pp. 1, 13)
