Since 2017, with the arrival of the Federal Decree-Law No. 3 of 2017, ICA expanded its functions to include citizenship affairs, passports, entry, and residence of foreigners in the state.<\/p>\n<p>With this increased footfall and the need to raise customer service standards, ICA looked to queue management as a means of streamlining their processes and serving clients well and effectively, in terms of time and quality of service. The data they possess and require for daily operations must be centralized so as to make it more accessible and communicable.<\/p>\n<p>That was then, and now is a similar yet very different story. With the pandemic and the new restrictions it brought with it, ICA needs managed queues, centralized information, and visitor management more than ever. Customer and staff safety is paramount.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;22927&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1619474931834{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2>Solutions deployed<\/h2>\n<p>The Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship trusted Wavetec solutions in their EID offices for over 5 years before installing the same in their immigration offices.
