PROJECT OVERVIEW:  Accenture leads the Smart Border Alliance, which is helping DHS to create a 21st century immigration system aimed at securing our nation’s borders while simultaneously facilitating legitimate travel and trade. The solution creates a Virtual Border through which DHS will distinguish security risks from legitimate travelers before they reach the US, locate and remove those who overstay their visas, and unobtrusively monitor entries and exits. The Automated Biometric Identification System Project is distinguished into two major tasks, commonly referred to as IDENT.  IDENT is utilized at entry and exit points to input biometric data into the core IDENT application. The basic IDENT functionality is to accept a pair of index fingerprints and photo, compress the fingerprints, extract minutiae from the prints, perform quality check and measurement search the archives for prior encounters, and create a record for new enrollment within the required time specified by the respective IDENT and Customer requirements documents. This identification and authentication system allows DHS officers to identify quickly criminal aliens and repeat offenders of U. S. Immigration laws. The system has been expanded to support the processing of benefits applicants, asylum seekers, and frequent foreign travelers.

 DAILY RESPONSIBILITIES: Performs analysis, design, code and unit test for all changes to the BCC and DoS BioVisa server components. Support software integration and software integration testing, as required. Update the SDD, VDD and operational manual.
