4G Identity Solutions (4Gid) is hoping to bag overseas projects including one for voter IDs in Kenya, a top company official said.

4Gid, which has executed 50 projects in India so far, has already got an order from African country Republic of Chad for military identification and is now eyeing an order for criminal identification system for police in Bangladesh.

Besides the company is also participating in a tender process for election ID project in Kenya, 4Gid Identity Solutions Chairman and CEO Sreeni Tripuraneni told reporters here.

"We have been involved in UID project right since its inception and developed and deployed Unique Identification Authority of India's (UIDAI) first proof of concept (PoC) to define technical, operational and behavioural processes related to enrolments and we are now looking forward to contribute to projects which would leverage Aadhaar based authentication for various government, banking and private sector programmes," he said.

The ID management firm has generated one crore Aadhaar numbers, "Another 8 million enrolments are in the process," he said.

The company has doubled its revenues to Rs 110 crore this year compared to Rs 55 crore last year and has an order book of Rs 300 crore to be delivered over one year, he said.
