Corel: Multimillion-Dollar Deal With U.S.


- Software developer Corel Corp (Toronto:COR.TO - news) (NasdaqNM:CORL - news) announced a multimillion-dollar deal with the U.S. Department of Justice on Friday, an important win in the rich and stable government market.

Corel said it will supply software for more than 55,000 staff in a three-year agreement, but did not disclose the value of the deal.

Ottawa-based Corel will supply its WordPerfect Office 2000 Standard and Professional versions along with voice recognition software called Dragon NaturallySpeaking, and WordPerfect Law Office 2000.

''We are pleased to provide nearly all of the components within the Department of Justice with a comprehensive solution,'' said Corel's Vice President of North American sales, Georges Sabongui, in a statement.

The contract win follows a lawsuit which Corel filed against the U.S. Department of Labor in mid-December. Corel charged the department with sole sourcing a three-year software contract, which the company had valued at around $8 million, to Microsoft Corp. (NasdaqNM:MSFT - news)

Corel claimed a win in June from a similar legal battle in Canada where it was awarded C$9.9 million ($6.8 million) in compensation from the Canadian government. Corel had complained that a eight-year supply deal for about 300,000 computers was unfairly awarded to Microsoft.
