Precise awarded order for U.S. State Department
Precise Biometrics, a developer of biometric and smart card technologies, has received an order valued at roughly $500,000 from the U.S. Department of State.
The new order, comprising of licenses and toolkits, specifies an upgrade to the U.S. Department of State’s existing Match-on-Card system from Precise. The upgrades adds Windows Vista support to the card system and hardware and also includes on-site support.
The Department of State is expecting to have over 60,000 users enrolled in the program within a few years and expects to continue using this system as it reportedly saves them millions each year in password administration. ![[end]](/resources/bullet/secureidnews-4.gif)
