Western Identification Network Selects NEC for Criminal AFIS Across 8 US States


NEC Corporation of America announced that it has been awarded a multiyear contract with the Western Identification Network, Inc. (WIN) to modernize WIN’s multistate criminal identification system across 8 US states.

WIN is a non-profit organisation that provides identification services to law enforcement in: Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington, Wyoming, and California (as an interface member).

WIN has been a long-standing customer of NEC America, and this contract was re-competed last year.

The re-award of the contract to NEC is a testament to the skill and efforts of their team in Sacramento, and the quality of the NEC AFIS solutions.

Interestingly, NEC is providing this capability to WIN as a service, thereby eliminating the need for any upfront capital expenditure, and has been doing so long before “cloud” became fashionable.  The solution is entirely owned by NEC and hosted in NEC data centers.
