Information technology services and solutions provider Ness Technologies Inc. (Nasdaq:NSTC) has been awarded a multi-year $4 million outsourcing contract from Israel’s ministry of the interior. The contract includes an option to extend the contract for an additional three years.

Maor is based on Lotus Notes and includes various modules such as document management, meeting room management, message management, digital signatures and others. Ness will also support future office management systems that will replace Maor in 2011.

Last week Ness Technologies won an $11 million contract from Israel’s ministry of immigrant absorption.
