Titus won a contract worth $5.8 million to supply software to 43 departments
An Ottawa email ranking software company has won a multi-million dollar contract to provide its solution to the bulk of the federal government.
Titus Inc. said Wednesday that its Message Classification for Microsoft Outlook suite has been chosen by Shared Services Canada to be adopted by 43 federal departments. It already has been bought by some of them.
Worth $5.8 million over seven years, its one of a number of contracts awarded by the government as part of its program to shrink the number of providers and data centres across the country.
Message Classification integrates with Outlook to allow users to classify outgoing email. A warning flag pops up if a message marked “secret” is addressed to someone not authorized to get it.
In short, CEO and founder Tim Upton said in an interview, it makes sure messages to the right people.
