Twin River adds Scientific Games to Rhode Island Lottery bid

Casino operator Twin River Worldwide Holdings has enlisted Scientific Games to support its bid to take over the Rhode Island lottery contract currently held by IGT.

IGT’s current contract is due to expire in 2023, but the state is considering a 20-year, no-bid billion-dollar extension to the agreement.

However, Twin River is putting pressure on the state to launch a public tender for the contract, linking up with Camelot Lottery Solutions, Intralot and now Scientific Games as part of the effort.

With no request for proposals (RFP) issued to date, it remains unclear what services each supplier will provide. However, Scientific Games will now offer its full suite of lottery services to the consortium, with the exact elements it will provide to be based on any tender published by the state.
