Attendance systems for DAFZA businesses

DAFZA sits adjacent to DXB airport Terminal 2 and specialises in air-cargo, high-value goods, express couriers and aviation-services companies. Tenants operate on airport time and depend on tight ground-side attendance controls. We size the solution to what actually happens on the ground: the tenant mix, the shift patterns, the building constraints and the free-zone or audit rules that apply. No one-size bundle for a zone this specific.

What we deliver across DAFZA

Every service delivered locally by our team, no subcontractors.

Biometric terminals supplied and installed

Suprema and ZKTeco fingerprint, face and palm terminals installed at your DAFZA office, warehouse or site. Free site survey covers cabling, mounting and headcount.

Time attendance software

Cloud or on-premise, with shift rules, overtime, WPS-ready payroll export and multi-branch consolidation.

WPS-ready payroll export

Worked hours, overtime and absences in a format your payroll and WPS SIF process consumes. We test the export against a live payroll run at handover.

Access control on the same terminal

Attendance and door-open in a single tap. Split access for executives, server rooms and stock rooms.

Multi-branch consolidation

Terminals across DAFZA and the rest of Dubai reporting into one central database. Head office sees everything; each branch manager sees only their team.

Fast local support

Support engineers based in Dubai. Remote response within 2 working hours; on-site engineers dispatched to DAFZA the same day.

Typical DAFZA businesses we serve

Examples we run into every week, with the setup we typically propose.

Three-shift, 24/7 operations. Face terminals at staff entrances, per-flight cost allocation, records synced with airline manifests.

High-value goods and jewellery import/export

Vault access on a separate group; dual-approval for sensitive rooms; tamper-evident records for insurance and customs audit.

Hangar and workshop attendance with per-project job codes. Records satisfy your GCAA and OEM audit trail requirements.

Rapid onboarding of temporary staff, automatic expiry at contract end. Records feed the primary contractor's WPS cycle.

DAFZA attendance system questions

Do you produce the export format DAFZA audit accepts?

Yes. CSV with employee ID, timestamp, biometric method and terminal name per record. Sample export handed over at go-live so your operations lead sees the finished output before any audit.

Can attendance work through DAFZA airside gate controls?

Yes. Terminals output Wiegand or OSDP compatible with your existing gate hardware. Attendance capture happens on the same tap that opens the airside barrier.

How quickly can we onboard new staff during peak air-cargo weeks?

Bulk-import via CSV plus in-terminal enrolment in under 30 seconds per staff member. A crew of 50 is fully enrolled inside one shift.

Is the export WPS-compliant?

Yes. The software exports worked hours, overtime and absences in a format your payroll and WPS SIF process consumes. We test the export against a live payroll run at handover, before the team leaves.

Which hardware brands do you supply?

We are an authorised supplier for Suprema (South Korea) and ZKTeco (China). Suprema is our default for enterprise and regulated environments; ZKTeco for cost-sensitive and volume rollouts.
