The European Commission has selected the bid submitted by a consortium which includes Romanian software producer Siveco for providing IT services for 4 years, under a contract which involves 550 specialists and a EUR 100 million budget.

"Siveco is the only Romanian company selected to provide IT services to the European Commission for a period of four years within the framework contract ESP-DESIS III, the Commission's largest IT contract. The budget for this program amounts to EUR 100 million", reads a Siveco statement, cited by local Mediafax.

Irina Socol, president and one of the main shareholders of Siveco, was held in tax evasion case in September, and she is now under house arrest.
