We specialize in the the unique nexus between identity solutions and public sector challenges, and how to implement and train on those identity resources. ​ Our core sectors of expertise are strategic planning from both the private and public sector perspectives, architecture of large national identity systems, expertise on the biometric industry, macro and micro policy and operational solutioning, and border homeland security management and operational concepts. ​
BIG EXPERIENCE

OUR VISION is why we are passionate about what we do
In today's interconnected world, identity strategy helps identify who we are and how we interact as individuals and as nations.

Our vision focuses upon tangible deliverables that help institutions and nations deliver timely, secure identity solutions from concept to implementation to upgrading and architecting, while minimizing resource expenditure and political capital. IdSP has a unique position amongst the cross-section between the identity industry, government, think tank and non-profit organizations. IdSP knows that at times either information or solutions are not in sight, but we try to be resourceful enough to figure out the basics, to help solve the complexities.
OUR VALUES guide our work
We believe in teamwork and team-building, that what can be and what should be is our driver, not what is. ​ We are interdisciplinary, bringing holistic and strategic thinking that cuts across policy, stakeholders and technical solutions. ​ We understand every point of view in a room, because we have lived and worked it, and thus respect the value each stakeholder brings to the table.
OUR SERVICES are designed for customer success
