UNISYS SELECTS AUTONOMY AS PREFERRED SUPPLIER FOR MEANING-BASED COMPUTING AND ENTERPRISE SEARCH
Autonomy and Unisys Commit to Developing Next-Generation Solutions for UK Police
Cambridge, UK and San Francisco, Calif. - June 20th, 2007 - Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE: AU. or AU.L), a global leader in infrastructure software for the enterprise, today announced that it has been chosen as the preferred supplier of meaning-based technologies in the investigative and intelligence sector in the United Kingdom by Unisys, a worldwide technology services and solutions company. Autonomy has already collaborated with Unisys with great success to enhance the capabilities of the Home Office Large Major Enquiry System (HOLMES). HOLMES is used by more than 5000 users in 52 Police forces, and by many of their criminal justice partners across the UK, to provide a central system for handling and managing major enquiries and to respond to national disasters and major incidents. HOLMES has been crucial in many recent high-profile operations such as the Soham murder enquiry, the 7/7 bombing investigations and Tsunami responses, and is proposed to be used to provide security for the 2012 Olympics. Under the terms of their new arrangement, Autonomy and Unisys will create a joint sales task-force, combining Autonomy's world-leading software with Unisys's specialist integration competencies for the UK investigative and intelligence sector.
Autonomy and Unisys are currently working together to provide more forces with the full range of Autonomy's advanced data retrieval and processing functionality, including conceptual retrieval, dynamic hyperlinking, automatic categorization and the Autonomy data warehouse, through the HOLMES system. Autonomy and Unisys are also looking to the future and are working together to enhance HOLMES 2 to deal with a wider range of enquiries which could include fraud, road traffic accident investigation, serial and serious crimes, as well as the capabilities to deal with multimedia such as images and CCTV footage.
"We have worked with Autonomy on HOLMES for the last 10 years, and our relationship has been a great success to date," commented Forbes Gallagher, Client Director for HOLMES of Unisys. "By entering into this new agreement we will offer more forces the potential to take full advantage of Autonomy's functionality by switching on the latent capabilities of the IDOL Server in HOLMES, as well as looking to the future and finding new ways we can work together."
Dr Mike Lynch, CEO and founder of Autonomy, added "Unisys is one of our key integrators and the continued evolution of the HOLMES system using Autonomy has been integral to our success in this sector. I look forward to moving this partnership forward by investing in our joint skill base and providing a greater range of Autonomy's capabilities to UK Police forces."
Autonomy will be exhibiting with Unisys at the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) Conference 2007 at G-Mex in Manchester from 19-21st June.
