Illinois Gaming Board Will Start Over and Rebid Video Gambling Contract
(Crain’s) — Illinois gambling regulators terminated an estimated $89-million video gambling system contract awarded just one month ago to Scientific Games Corp. after a losing bidder complained that the state miscalculated the price of its bid.
The Illinois Gaming Board plans to rebid the contract for the data network and central computer system that will monitor tens of thousands of video gambling devices due to be installed in bars, restaurants and other places with liquor licenses sometime next year.
