The European Union has sued IBM, Atos, and Leonardo over delays in developing the Entry/Exit System (EES). eu-LISA initiated the lawsuit due to repeated setbacks in the project. The EES is designed to electronically record border crossings by non-EU citizens and is crucial for managing visa overstays and combating identity fraud. eu-LISA clarified that the lawsuit does not affect the EES's current operations, focusing instead on development delays. The contract for the EES was awarded to a consortium including IBM Belgium, Atos Belgium, and Leonardo in 2019, with a six-year duration for implementation and maintenance.
