The objective of the Second Social and Fiscal National Identification System (SINTyS) Project is to identify social or fiscal attributes of physical and legal persons in Argentina, through a sustainable information exchange system, aimed at improving the efficiency, effectiveness, and impact of social services and fiscal programs at all levels of government in Argentina. There are five components to the project. The first component is the institutional and legal framework. It will provide support to SINTyS authorities to further develop and implement the institutional and legal framework required to ensure SINTyS permanent institutionalization within Argentina's public sector at the national, provincial, and municipal levels. The second component is the information management and data quality framework. It will focus on further strengthening SINTyS information management, with a particular emphasis on enhancing the quality of the data being exchanged under the system. The third component is the technological framework for the information exchange. This component supports the project's overall information technology, telecommunication, and software development needs, with specific support to the management, development, implementation, maintenance, and continuous reengineering of the technology and infrastructure; the definition of protocols and standards for data exchange; and evaluation and adaptation of modern telecommunication models to guarantee the highest reliability of the information exchange. The fourth component is the information security. The specific objective of this component is to support the further development and implementation of a robust information security architecture and framework to ensure that SINTyS can run operations safely and reliably. Finally, the fifth component is the project management. It aims to provide the administrative, financial and budget management, accounting, audit, procurement (goods, services and consultants services) and other services support needed for project implementation according to the rules specified in the project operation manual and the Bank's procedures.
