Digital passes, Face ID and access control system integration help manage site access, workforce counts and site security.

Construction site access control framework: digital passes, Face ID, and tracking of actual worker headcount, connected to SCUD, the HR domain, and the construction management platform. KT.Team designs, integrates, and supports this framework at developer sites.
Contractors submit requests online, and employees enter using a QR code or Face ID. Paper passes and magnetic cards are removed from the process, along with manual data entry at the checkpoint.
The system shows how many people should be on site and how many actually entered. The mismatch is visible on the day of the shift, not at month end when timesheets are closed.
Turnstiles, checkpoints, Face ID, and a mobile security post work as one system and are linked to HR data and time tracking.
When a contractor's agreement ends, access is revoked automatically, not when someone happens to remember. This closes the most common gap in pass management.
An employee access request is submitted in the system before the shift, along with the documents. No manual entry or paper lists remain at the checkpoint.
Employee data is verified and loaded into a single database, and access is approved according to site rules: safety briefing, PPE, contract term.
The employee receives a QR code in the mobile app or enrolls in the biometric system if Face ID is enabled on site.
A turnstile or mobile security post records the entry. An online counter shows how many people are on site right now.
The check-in is automatically added to the timesheet, so actual headcount and payroll no longer diverge. When the contract ends, access is disabled.

A card or QR code can be handed to someone else, but a face cannot, so Face ID prevents employee substitution at the gate.
But biometrics have a separate legal framework, and it determines the solution architecture. Since June 1, 2023, commercial operators have been prohibited from storing original biometric data locally: faces are kept in an encrypted buffer for no longer than 24 hours and transferred to
the Unified Biometric System under Federal Law No. 572-FZ.
A local SCUD with facial recognition without transfer to EBS is already a violation; the fine for a legal entity is 15-20 million rubles (Article 13.11, Part 17 of the Administrative Code).
That is why ESIA integration is built into the project from the start, not added after the turnstiles go live.
The full regulatory framework for the access regime, including the permit-to-work form, site and checkpoint requirements, fire safety regime, and penalties, is covered in the article Access control on the construction site.
KT.Team experience
KT.Team took over support and stabilized S.Pass, a construction workforce tracking service: checkpoints and ACS, a mobile app, SMS notifications, and an infrastructure optimization plan.
Testimonials
The KT.Team team is a mature development partner. The delivery process is very clearly organized, and the smooth collaboration within the engineering team deserves special mention. When the team sees that the development process needs fine-tuning, it does it. During discussions, the team digs into the essence of the tasks and seeks to understand the business context. The work is aimed not at formally fulfilling the specification but at solving the real problem. Thanks to strong engineering expertise and product thinking, the team can be trusted not only with implementation but also with the architecture of the entire system.
FAQ
Start with an analysis of access control processes, existing infrastructure, and security requirements.
Yes. For sites without equipment, a mobile checkpoint is available through the security guard app.
Yes. The system supports biometric identification and integration with Face ID.
Yes. Contractors submit requests and manage employee data themselves through the system.
The system shows entries, workforce count, time spent on site, pass statuses, and approval progress.
Yes. Since June 1, 2023, original biometric data cannot be stored locally: only an encrypted buffer for up to 24 hours and transfer to EBS under Federal Law No. 572-FZ are allowed. This requirement is built into the project architecture.
A mobile security post is used: the guard scans the pass in the app, and entries are added to the shared record alongside sites where ACS is already installed.
The system follows the contract term. This removes the most common gap: access lasts longer than the person's work on site.
