UK Immigration Authority
orders 100 VSC4^PLUS

As part of a continuing programme to reduce illegal migration into the United Kingdom, the Immigration and Nationality Directorate, the UK government's agency responsible for immigration control, has placed a contract with Foster & Freeman for the supply of its latest passport examination system, the VSC4^PLUS. The contract calls for the delivery of 100 instruments to various immigration control centres throughout the country. The contract was won on a number of issues which included technical functionality, product reliability, comprehensive training schedules and the provision of field maintenance during and after warranty.

This is the second major contract the UK Immigration authorities have placed with the company. The first, for 58 VSC4C instruments, a precursor of the VSC4^PLUS, was placed in 2001.
