Unisys Corporation announced a four-year contract to support a range of services for the European Union.

In partnership with Uni Systems and Wavestone, the Unisys-led consortium will consult on the design of major European IT systems to support eu-LISA, the European Union Agency for the Operational Management of Large-Scale IT Systems in the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice.

These smart systems will dramatically improve travel across the region, lowering waiting times at border controls and providing a higher level of security.

Under the contract, the consortium will be responsible for the delivery of critical infrastructure, while ensuring that compliance, security and data protection requirements are all upheld to the highest standard.

The consortium's technical experts will work together to consult on, integrate and provide quality control for the application infrastructure of eu-LISA. "We have worked with the European Union for more than a decade and this latest contract represents the team dedication and deep industry knowledge in the area of migration and Home Affairs," said Bill Brown, senior vice president and general manager, Business Platforms and Services, Unisys.

"Technology plays a vital role in creating a safer and better Europe, and we are thrilled to support and enable eu-LISA in achieving its short- and long-term vision. By forming this unique consortium, we are able to support the continued needs of the European Union as it expands and grows its mission, offering the best service and implementation available for an easier traveler journey and in general enhancement of free travel of people in Europe."
