OTTAWA, May 30, 2014 /CNW/ - Magor (TSX-V:MCC) today announced that in partnership with Cumulus Solutions Inc., Magor has won the opportunity to deploy its cloud-based Aerus Service Delivery Platform (SDP) for a range of video and collaboration services throughout the State of Texas' agencies, universities, counties, public school districts and other state funded entities.
Cumulus and Magor bid on a competitive request for proposal that the Department of Information Resources (DIR) issued to supply transformational, cloud-based video and collaboration technology to the State of Texas. Cumulus was awarded a contract through DIR for video, voice, web conferencing, webcasting and video room installation services.
