GAO Case Studies

Karachi, Sindh
A large public hospital implemented NFC wristbands and readers for patient identification. This reduced administrative errors and improved medication tracking across multiple wards.

Islamabad, Capital Territory
A university deployed NFC student ID cards across its campus. The solution enabled access control, cafeteria payment, and attendance automation.

Faisalabad, Punjab
A retail chain used desktop NFC readers at checkout counters for faster customer processing, leading to reduced queue times and improved customer experience.

Lahore, Punjab
An event management company adopted NFC wristbands for access control at a citywide cultural festival. The technology simplified crowd control and boosted on-site security.

Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
A municipal transport project used NFC-based fare cards to modernise its bus fleet operations. The tap-and-ride system decreased boarding time and increased fare collection efficiency.
