RPA have released a press release 22/4/10:
“Railway Procurement Agency has announced that the contract to operate the Integrated Ticketing Scheme (ITS) has been awarded to Hewlett-Packard Ireland. “

This is very strange as the last press release on this project from the RPA is September 2008, when it announced the same thing but that the contract to operate ITS was awarded to IBM Ireland.

What on Earth is going on? have they just wasted the last 18 months?
