Accenture Border Services

Globalization and the threat of terrorism have created the need for a secure and safe society.

We help border management and customs agencies transform their operations to enable the efficient and open movement of travelers and goods in and between countries, preventing threats and without compromising an individual’s basic rights and privacy. Our integrated approach to customs and border services includes any agency with identity, border security, customs and immigration responsibilities.

Any government’s ability to equitably deliver vital services to residents rests on accurate enrollment and unique identification. Most travelers feel favorably toward a system of checks and balances. When an Accenture survey team asked citizens across the world if they would be happy to share their biometric details, 89 percent concurred.¹ What is more, they understood the benefits of biometrics in terms of security and fast, efficient processing.
