The Problem

Why Workforce Attendance Still Creates Unnecessary Admin

When attendance is captured manually or across disconnected systems, HR and Operations teams spend time correcting, validating and reconciling data.

Buddy punching & shared credentials

Traditional clock-in methods can make it difficult to confirm that the person recorded is the person who actually attended.

Manual timesheets

Paper records and spreadsheets create additional work for employees, managers and payroll teams.

Payroll discrepancies

Inconsistent attendance data can lead to corrections, disputes and time spent validating hours.

Overtime and shift complexity

Multiple shifts, changing schedules and overtime rules are difficult to manage through manual processes.

Agency and temporary workers

Managing attendance across different worker groups can create fragmented records.

Limited workforce visibility

Without centralised reporting, managers may lack a clear view of attendance across teams or sites.

The integrated solution

One Workforce Identity, From Clock-In to Payroll

Arana’s workforce management runs on the same BioWave platform as access control, so the identity that opens the door is the one that clocks in. No cards to share, no PINs to pass on and no timesheets to chase.

Every clock-in is matched against an encrypted biometric template and recorded in real time, ready for your shift rules and payroll.

BioWave connects biometric or other supported credentials with workforce management, allowing attendance events to flow into configured rules, reports and payroll workflows.

Take a Tour

One-time Enrolment

Each employee is enrolled once, remotely, on site or on the device, before their first shift.

⬇

Verify

At the reader, their identity is confirmed in seconds, so nobody can clock in for someone else.

⬇

Clock In

Start, finish and break times are recorded automatically against the right person and shift.

⬇

BioWave Management

Hours are checked against your shift rules and passed straight through to payroll.

The Same Identity Behind Access and Attendance

BioWave can connect the identity used for access with workforce attendance, allowing organisations to build a single operational record rather than managing separate credentials and systems.

Why Arana

Big Business Standards. Small Business Attention.

We’re a specialist integrator, not a call-centre-scale vendor. You deal directly with senior engineers from the first site survey onwards, and with a team that takes the time to understand how your organisation actually operates.

Direct access

Speak with the engineer who configured your shift rules, not a support queue starting from zero.

Fast to move

New shift patterns or payroll rule changes are actioned in days, not a vendor’s quarterly release cycle.

Tailored, not templated

Rules built around how your workforce actually operates, not a generic overtime template.

Accountable, end to end​

The team that sets up your attendance rules is the same team accountable when payroll runs.

Ready to Stop Chasing Timesheets?

We’ll show you what your existing access hardware can already do for payroll — often with nothing new to install.
