Worldwide ID Value Chain Solutions Forecast
The Value Chain Market Sizing graph indicates the relative revenue for each of the biometric-based ID value chain components. Each component of the value chain incorporates its predecessors. So, for example, the revenue for an Application/Point Solution would include the revenue for Technical Integrated Solution.

The graph illustrates the relatively small percent of revenue generated by biometric core technology relative to the other components of the overall value chain. Ultimately biometrics technology will generate little revenue and be subject to the type or market dynamics that exist in the PC marketplace where margins on core technology—hardware and software—are razor thin and sustained market success is based on developing, deploying and supporting solutions.
