Lockheed Martin will design, develop, test, and deploy the Next Generation Identification System over the 10-year life of the contract.The new system will expand on the FBI Criminal Justice Information Services Division&#39;s Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System (IAFIS), primarily a fingerprint-based identification system operated in Clarksburg, West Virginia, the FBI said.&quot;IAFIS has been a fantastic tool in support of criminal justice and the war on terror,&quot; Thomas E. Bush III, assistant director of the FBI&#39;s CJIS Division, said in a statement. &quot;[The new system] will give us bigger, better, faster capabilities and lead us into the future.&quot;The American Civil Liberties Union has raised concerns about the biometric database, saying it&#39;s part of the U.S. government&#39;s efforts to collect more and more information about residents.The new system will expand fingerprint capacity, doubling the size of the FBI&#39;s current database, and will also include palm prints, iris and facial recognition, Lockheed Martin said in a news release.
