In total the agreement is worth 1.34 MUSD with approximately 700 kUSD for licenses and maintenance and the remaining 640 kUSD in consultancy and training over a 2-year period. The customer will use Telelogic's entire portfolio of development tools to develop and maintain command & control systems as well as advanced logistics systems for air surveillance operations.
