Original Problem

Government managers cannot monitor employee attendance and workplace productivity in real-time across distributed office locations

Public sector administrators struggle to enforce accountability and detect absenteeism among civil servants, especially across multiple government offices and departments. Current manual inspection methods are inefficient, require physical presence, and fail to provide systematic data on staff attendance patterns. Supervisors lack automated tools to track who is present, when they arrive, and actual productivity metrics, making it impossible to maintain discipline and operational efficiency at scale.
