Nationwide biometric attendance deployment across 568 DGFP offices for the Director of Logistics, 2023–2024 — Completed.
Crystal Technology delivered one of the largest government biometric attendance deployments in Bangladesh for the Directorate General of Family Planning (DGFP), under the Director of Logistics. The project brought digital, tamper-proof attendance tracking to 568 government offices spread across every division and district in the country, replacing manual attendance registers with a centralized, real-time monitoring system.
The solution architecture consists of a cloud-connected attendance management platform that aggregates data from 568 biometric terminals installed at individual offices. Each device captures fingerprint and facial recognition data, syncs attendance records to the central server in real time over the internet, and provides local fallback storage for areas with intermittent connectivity. The software platform delivers consolidated dashboards, office-by-office analytics, automated reports, leave management, and anomaly detection for DGFP leadership.
Given the massive geographic scale, Crystal Technology executed a carefully phased rollout covering device procurement, site surveys at all 568 locations, physical installation, network connectivity setup, employee biometric enrollment, user training, and handover. The contract includes over three years of comprehensive maintenance to ensure sustained operations across this vast deployment footprint.
Centralized cloud-based software for real-time attendance aggregation from 568 offices, featuring consolidated dashboards, automated reporting, leave management, late-arrival tracking, and office-wise comparative analytics.
Procurement and delivery of 568+ biometric attendance terminals with fingerprint and facial recognition capabilities, along with mounting hardware, power adapters, and connectivity equipment for each installation site.
