Portalnet, a subsidiary of Samart Telcoms, has won a contract to implement an ERP system for the Government Lottery Office, boosting the company's total backlog to 8.69 billion baht.
According to a report by Thai Post, Portalnet Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Samart Telcoms (SAMTEL), has successfully secured a contract to implement an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system for the Government Lottery Office of Thailand. This project is part of the company's ongoing strategy to expand its client base within the public sector.
Following this contract win, Samart Telcoms has reported that its total project backlog has reached 8.692 billion baht. The company expressed optimism regarding its financial trajectory, with management aiming to surpass the 10 billion baht threshold in total backlog by the end of the year.
For residents and business observers in Thailand, this development highlights the continued digital transformation efforts within state-run enterprises. While the implementation of an ERP system is primarily an internal administrative upgrade for the Government Lottery Office, it reflects broader trends in government infrastructure spending.

Observers will be watching to see if the company meets its year-end target of 10 billion baht in total backlog as it continues to pursue further government and private sector projects.
