Scientific Games, a top-tier software provider, has signed a multi-year agreement that will see the leading supplier become the full-line provider of the New Mexico Lottery.
More specifically, Scientific Games signed a 10-year deal and will also expand its contract with the New Mexico Lottery & Scratches Division to its Scientific Games Enhanced Partnership (SPEG) platform.
As part of the decade-long agreement, Scientific Games will provide the New Mexico Lottery with its cutting-edge lottery gaming system technology, as well as other land-based online products.
This includes the state-of-the-art ecosystem Scientific Games Momentum, the Infuse business intelligence platform, and the SciTrak instant game system.
Additionally, the offering by Scientific Games will also include more than 1,000 self-service retail lottery machines, point-of-sale terminals, and an entire range of properties including Loteria and Game of Thrones.
At the same time, the advanced SPEG program, which is used by more than 20 lotteries around the globe, will provide the New Mexico Lottery’s Scratches platform with a bunch of additional services such as game-planning, portfolio management, and data analytics, to mention a few.
David Barden, CEO of the New Mexico Lottery, commented on the partnership and said that the decision to join forces with Scientific Games came after a “rigorous and competitive procurement process”, stating that this collaboration will also enable the operator to boost scholarship funding for students in New Mexico.
Following a rigorous competitive procurement process, we are delighted to announce Scientific Games as the New Mexico Lottery’s new full-line provider. This strategic partnership will see Scientific Games become our exclusive lottery systems technology partner and expand our existing Scratchers relationship to a full SGEP arrangement. By implementing a single, holistic solution across our entire lottery operations, we aim to optimize performance and generate increased scholarship funding for New Mexico students.
John Schulz, President of Americas & Global Instant Products at Scientific Games, echoed Barden’s sentiment and said that the provider is looking forward to completely innovating its business with the company’s advanced ecosystem of progressive solutions to “drive responsible growth”.
We have partnered with the New Mexico Lottery on the instant game portion of their business for many years and are looking forward to helping take their performance to new heights as a full-line provider in a new collaborative contract.
