High-security installations streamline access for qualified civilian personnel.

October 16, 2007 - DRUG AND THEFT CRIMES ARE TOP REASONS INDIVIDUALS ARE DENIED ACCESS VIA THE RAPIDGATE PROGRAM
Vendor access management program already protects installations coast to coast.
Felony convictions for drug offenses and theft are the top two reasons why individuals are denied access to secure installations through the RAPIDGate® Program. According to Eid Passport, Inc., the company that provides the RAPIDGate Program, 26% of all individuals who failed the Program’s thorough background screening were found to have previous felony convictions on drug charges, and 26% had theft-related convictions. These are just two of the many criteria that disqualify individuals from receiving a RAPIDGate Badge that allows streamlined entrance into secure installations.
