DISO: Close but no cigars yet.

"Symantec Corporation (Nasdaq: SYMC), a leading provider of Internet Security technology, today announced it has signed a procurement agreement, known as a Departmental Individual Standing Offer (DISO) with Public Works and Government Services Canada. This agreement will allow government departments, agencies and wholly owned government corporations to access Symantec products at pre-negotiated pricing, terms and conditions."

I think this is like getting on the federal GAO Approved Vendor List in the US whereby government agencies are authorized to buy products from certain vendors at negotiated discount prices.

Getting on the list doesn't guarantee any sales, but it makes it easier for government agencies to purchase the products.
