Sizing the UK Identity Card System

Capacitas, the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) capacity and performance specialist has issued a white paper which, for the first time, quantifies the expected business demand for the UK Identity Card service. The expected demand is 1.2 billion business processes per annum, which is comparable to the NHS National Programme for IT (currently the largest non-military ICT project in Europe). The scale of this demand presents a significant risk to the project as system performance issues are more likely to occur when attempting to meet demand of this magnitude.
