The certifications were approved by the Standardization, Testing and Quality Certification (STQC) Directorate for the Government of India’s Department of Information Technology (DIT).
Smart Identity Devices Pvt. Ltd. (Smart ID) is Cross Match’s technology partner in India. Cross Match and Smart ID have successfully partnered to register and identify residents for various projects, including Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MNREGS), Employees’ State Insurance Corporation (ESIC) program, the Public Distribution System (PDS), a pilot program of National Population Registry (NPR), a pilot program for the UID project and a proof-of-concept in Bihar.
