Mexico Selects Biometric Controlled Access Solution for Government Facilities December 2005 San Diego, CA - ImageWare® Systems, Inc. (AMEX: IW) in partnership with Seglink S de RL de CV, has been selected by a Mexican government entity to deliver a comprehensive multi-biometric identity management system for visitor and access control at a government installation. The system is expected to be implemented at additional government facilities as well. The initial order is valued at approximately $200,000 and is expected to be completed in the 4th quarter. Options for additional implementations, which are expected to be exercised by the end of this year or during the first quarter of 2006, will result in a total contract value of approximately $600,000. Under the terms of the agreement, ImageWare Systems will develop a customized multi-biometric identity management system by leveraging a combination of the company's IWS™ Biometric Engine® and investigative solutions, enabling the enrollment of employees, vendors and visitors, and control access to secure areas. ImageWare's solution provides interface to automated fingerprint systems (AFIS) for checking individuals requesting access or visitation to the facility. Once the background check is completed, applicants will be issued an identification badge linked to their biometric enrollment allowing facility personnel to authenticate and track visitor movement upon entry and departure. The system will initially utilize fingerprint biometrics with the ability to seamlessly integrate face, iris and signature recognition capabilities in the future. |
