HID Global introduces Identity on Demand™ services

HID's Identity on Demand™ delivers expertise and speed for successful custom ID badge projects

HID Global, the trusted source for solutions for the delivery of secure identity, announced the launch of Identity on Demand™ (IoD), a unique service offering that provides expertise and speed needed to make custom credential and ID badge projects successful. Offering card design, database management and card personalisation, IoD services manages the administrative tasks of customer ID projects by producing credentials quickly, efficiently and within budget. As the trusted source for the delivery of secure credentials, HID Global is committed to bringing valued products and services to its channel and end-users - from blank cards to fully personalised credentials.

The new service represents a consolidation of experience and process refinement for delivering card issuance services in a secure, fast and convenient manner. From laminated artwork and anti-counterfeiting techniques to variable record printing and advanced personalisation, IoD services delivers the global know-how, tools, delivery services, speed and ongoing support needed to ensure the success of even the most demanding credential program.

Sold through HID Global's extensive channel network of security integrators and OEMs, IoD services create opportunities for installing resellers and OEMs to extend their existing product and services portfolio. IoD services benefit ID badging project managers, who need external assistance due to tight project timelines, lack of resources or to supplement in-house card issuance capabilities.

"By introducing Identity on Demand services, HID Global has addressed a key customer need: end-to-end delivery of secure credentials, from card technology to personalisation to delivery," said Anthony Ball, senior vice president, Identity and Access Management (IAM), HID Global. "The programme is designed to ensure mutual commitment to project success."

With production facilities around the world, HID Global is able to deliver credentials to end-user facilities and employees anywhere. IoD services provide card graphic design assistance to maximise the functional and branding potential of a card--a unique offering in the market. Structured to observe security standards, IoD services differentiates itself from other market participants by providing rigorous auditing and process controls to ensure the security and integrity of every card from secure data transfer, to design, production and programming, through packaging and delivery.
