Contract Announcement
Portuguese Government approves acquisition of radios from
EID
Cohort, the independent technology group, notes the announcement
by the Portuguese government in its official gazette of its
decision to authorise the acquisition of tactical radios for the
Portuguese Army from Cohort's subsidiary EID. The details of the
contract will be subject to negotiation, but the approved maximum
value is EUR7.5m, and delivery is expected to take place between
2017 and 2023.
The radios will form part of the Portuguese Army's tactical
communications and information system known as SIC-T.
Andy Thomis, Chief Executive of Cohort, said:
"I am delighted that EID has been selected to provide this
important element of the SIC-T system. It is a strong endorsement
of EID's technical capability and the high quality of its products.
The expected contract award will enhance the visibility of Group
revenue in 2016/17 and beyond."
