Smart ID badges and Access Control for 1 Police Plaza
SAIC designed, integrated and is currently implementing a Smart ID System for more than 55,000 NYPD personnel. Smart ID Badges are being issued to all NYPD personnel. The Smart ID Badges contain state-or-the-market capabilities including biometric templates, advanced security features, embedded computer chips and RFID antennas. The Smart ID badge holds essential personnel data, documents time-and-attendance information, and provides access control to police facilities. The badges store each cardholder's personal biometrics for positive identification and secure operations. The badge also contains encrypted personal data, a high-quality photo, digital signature, and time-and-attendance application that integrate with the New York City Time and Attendance database. NYPD personnel can log into and out of work, request vacation and/or sick leave and conduct other functions using their ID card and a PDA in the field.
