Neustar Says E-Mail Shows Contract Advice Favors Ericsson

Neustar Inc. said a confidential e-mail that surfaced on a government website shows that the U.S. Federal Communications Commission has been urged to shift a contract for services held by Neustar over to rival Ericsson AB.
The recommendation “is by no means the end of the process,” in part because Neustar, which has received most of its revenue from its current contract, disputes how the bidding process for a new deal has been handled, company spokesman John Buckley said in an e-mail.
