PACIFIC EXPORT GARMENTS

4 Face Recognition Devices Deployed for Trial — The Future of Garment Workforce Management

A Critical Industry at a Crossroads: Bangladesh’s ready-made garment (RMG) sector is the backbone of our economy—contributing 84% of total export earnings and employing over 4 million workers. Yet despite this economic significance, many factories still rely on outdated, manual attendance systems that create inefficiencies, payroll errors, and security vulnerabilities.

Pacific Export, a forward-thinking garments manufacturer, decided it was time to change that. In November 2025, they partnered with Tipsoi to trial a modern solution: AI-powered face recognition attendance devices.

Meet Pacific Export:

Pacific Export is an established garments manufacturer serving international brands with a reputation for quality and timely delivery. Like many in the RMG sector, they face unique workforce management challenges:

The Scale Challenge

Large manufacturing companies operate with extensive workforces across multiple production lines and shifts. During peak seasons, they employ both permanent and temporary workers, making workforce management increasingly complex. Allocating the right number of workers to meet strict delivery deadlines becomes challenging at this scale. Without precise labor allocation, production targets are missed, costs rise, and operations become inefficient.

The Security Challenge

Manufacturing facilities require strict access control to protect sensitive areas. Production floors and quality control zones must be restricted to authorized personnel only. Tracking who is on premises during different shifts is essential for safety compliance and emergency response. Without proper systems, unauthorized access can compromise product quality, security, and worker safety.

Why Pacific Export Chose Face Recognition:

After researching various biometric solutions—fingerprint scanners, RFID cards, PIN codes—Pacific Export selected Tipsoi’s face recognition technology for several compelling reasons:

Sub-2 Second Verification: Workers simply look at the camera and walk through. No stopping, no touching, no delays. During shift changes, hundreds of workers can check in within minutes instead of creating queues.

Zero Contact Required: Post-pandemic awareness made touchless solutions highly desirable. No shared fingerprint scanners, no cards to exchange—just look and go.

Impossible to Fake: You can share a card, lend a fingerprint scanner, or give someone your PIN. You can’t share your face. Biometric uniqueness eliminates buddy punching completely.

Nothing to Carry: Workers don’t need cards, fobs, or PINs to remember. Their face is their credential—always with them, never lost or forgotten.

Handles Large Volumes: Face recognition systems process multiple people simultaneously. Perfect for factories with hundreds of workers entering/exiting during shift changes.

Cloud-Based Data: Attendance data flows automatically to payroll systems. Real-time dashboards show exactly who’s on premises at any moment.

The Payroll Challenge

Accurate time-tracking is essential for fair wages and proper overtime calculations. Processing monthly payroll for hundreds of workers using manual methods is error-prone and leads to miscalculations. These errors cause worker disputes, legal issues, and financial losses. An automated system is necessary to capture work hours accurately and generate error-free payroll data.

What Wasn’t Working: The Pain of Manual Systems

Before Tipsoi, Pacific Export used a combination of manual registers and outdated punch card systems:

❌ Buddy Punching Epidemic

❌ Time Theft

❌ Slow Check-In Process

❌ Payroll Reconciliation Nightmare

❌ No Real-Time Visibility

❌ Security Gaps

❌ Compliance Concerns

Trial Results: By the Numbers

Attendance Accuracy:

  • 99.8% Recognition Success Rate: Only 0.2% false rejections (usually due to poor lighting)
  • 1.8 Second Average Check-In Time: Faster than anticipated
  • Zero Buddy Punching Incidents: Impossible with face recognition
  • 40% Faster Shift Changes: Massive time savings during transitions

Operational Impact:

  • 15% Reduction in Payroll Discrepancies: Fewer disputed hours and overtime claims
  • 12% Decrease in Late Arrivals: When workers know the system tracks precisely, punctuality improves
  • 100% Access Control Compliance: No unauthorized entries to restricted zones
  • Real-Time Floor Visibility: Managers always know exact headcount

HR Efficiency:

  • 85% Time Saved on Payroll Processing: 3-4 days reduced to 4-6 hours
  • Automated Compliance Reports: International buyer audit requirements met instantly
  • Zero Manual Data Entry Errors: No more transcription mistakes from paper to system

What Pacific Export Leadership Says:

“The trial phase has exceeded our expectations. We were skeptical about face recognition working in our factory environment—dust, varying light conditions, workers wearing caps—but Tipsoi’s devices handled everything flawlessly. The time savings in payroll alone justify the investment, but the real value is having accurate, real-time data. We’re no longer guessing who’s on the floor; we know. If the next two months go as well as the first, we’ll be rolling this out facility-wide.”

Why This Matters for Bangladesh’s Garment Sector:

Pacific Export’s trial is a microcosm of a larger industry transformation:

The RMG Sector’s Technology Gap: Despite being Bangladesh’s largest export industry, many garment factories still operate with decades-old workforce management systems. This creates:

  • Compliance risks with international buyers demanding transparency
  • Operational inefficiencies costing millions in aggregate
  • Worker dissatisfaction from payroll disputes and unfair treatment
  • Security vulnerabilities in facilities handling valuable merchandise

The Modernization Imperative: Global brands are pressuring suppliers to digitize operations. Factories that can’t prove transparent labor practices risk losing contracts. Face recognition attendance isn’t a luxury—it’s becoming a requirement.

Tipsoi’s Role: As one of Bangladesh’s leading biometric solution providers, Tipsoi is positioned to help the RMG sector modernize:

  • Proven technology trusted by diverse industries (education, agriculture, manufacturing)
  • Local support team understands garment industry workflows
  • Competitive pricing suitable for cost-conscious manufacturers
  • Cloud platform handling the scale of large factory deployments
