Intercedes MyID TM Smart Card and Identity Management System Chosen20 December 2004
Intercede, today announces it has been selected by the Irish Department of Transport to provide its MyID smart card and identity management software for the secure enrolment, processing and management of digital tachograph cards.
Intercede’s MyID will provide a secure easy-to-use card issuing and management system for the enrolment of up to 100,000 transport professionals, processing of tachograph applications and ongoing management of tachograph smart cards including renewal, replacement and exchange. As part of the contract, MyID will be integrated with the European wide TACHOnet and a number of other third party systems.
The digital tachograph, or personal driver card, has been developed as part of a European road safety project. In 2005, in order to comply with European Commission legislation, it will be mandatory for all Member State’s goods and passenger transport vehicles to be equipped with electronic tachographs. Intercede’s MyID smart card and identity management system enables the replacement of outdated paper-based tachographs with an efficient, portable smart card that can record activities such as the distance travelled, speed, driving times and rest periods of the driver.
“This contract award proves Intercede’s strength in providing high quality software for the Public Sector market. We are committed to providing secure, interoperable and reliable smart card and identity management software to all of our customers and partners in Europe.” said Richard Parris, Chairman and CEO of Intercede. “Intercede are confident that the adoption of our technology in Ireland will assist the European Commission with their objectives.”
