02 January 2009

A new tender has been announced by the Israeli government detailing its plans for a nationwide biometric enrolment solution. The solution is designed to underpin both the eID project (which was awarded on 1/12/2008 to a consortium led by HP) and the country’s upcoming electronic passport project.

The enrolment project entails the capture of fully ICAO-compliant biometrics (face, two fingerprints) and signature capture, at sites geographically distributed throughout the country.

The tender announcement was released on 29/12/2008. The last date for purchasing the tender is 20/1/2009, and the last submission date is 15/3/2009.
