About / Awards & Recognition

Credentials you can verify, not adjectives.

In identity infrastructure, trust has to be auditable. This page lists the certifications our hardware and platforms hold, the management systems we are assessed against, and the national and enterprise programmes that have put them into production.

UIDAI / Aadhaar certified MINEX · NIST-compliant 5 ISO management systems In-house OEM since 2006
Track Record

Two decades of building identity hardware and software in India.

Mantra Softech has designed, manufactured and supported biometric identity systems since 2006. Mantra EHS is the business unit that takes that engineering into enterprise campuses, government institutions and critical infrastructure.

2006 Founded · continuous operation since
40+ Countries served
1,400+ People across R&D, manufacturing and support
3,200+ Enterprise devices in production
Certifications & Accreditations

The approvals that let our systems operate where it matters.

Each of these is a gating requirement in the environments we serve. Government and PSU tenders, in particular, are closed to vendors who cannot produce them.

National ID

UIDAI / Aadhaar Certification

Certified implementation partner for India's national biometric identity infrastructure. This is what makes our devices eligible for Aadhaar-authenticated workflows and unlocks government and PSU tender categories.

Unique Identification Authority of India
Interoperability

MINEX — NIST Compliance

Minutiae Interoperability Exchange compliance, assessed against NIST methodology. Required for large-scale 1:N biometric deduplication, which is the core of our Multi-MABIS platform.

Government

STQC Certification

Standardisation Testing and Quality Certification, the Government of India's assurance mark for electronics and IT products. Applies across our fingerprint and multi-modal device range.

STQC Directorate, MeitY · Government of India
International

CE, FCC and RoHS

European conformity, US Federal Communications Commission and restriction of hazardous substances marks across our device portfolio — the basis of our export footprint across 40+ countries.

EU · USA · international conformity
Manufacturing

In-house OEM Manufacturing

We design and build our own biometric hardware rather than rebadging imported devices. Quality is controlled from the circuit board up, and firmware, spares and lifecycle support stay under one roof.

Compliance

Indian Labour Law Alignment

Our workforce and contract labour platforms produce statutory registers and reporting formats aligned to Indian labour law — which is what makes them defensible in a compliance audit, not just an HR convenience.

Statutory reporting · India
ISO Management Systems

Five ISO standards, independently assessed.

Certification is not a one-off event. Each of these is maintained through periodic surveillance audits, which is the part that actually matters to a procurement team.

ISO 9001 certification ISO 9001 Quality management systems
ISO/IEC 27001 certification ISO/IEC 27001 Information security management
ISO/IEC 20000 certification ISO/IEC 20000 IT service management
ISO 14001 certification ISO 14001 Environmental management
ISO 45001 certification ISO 45001 Occupational health & safety
Recognition in the Field

The strongest endorsement is a system still running at scale.

Selection into these programmes followed technical evaluation, security review and competitive procurement. Documented deployments are available in our case study library.

National programme

Aadhaar enrolment & authentication

Biometric devices and software deployed into the world's largest civil identity programme — an environment with no tolerance for false accepts or downtime.

Case study available
Critical infrastructure

Space research facility access control

Multi-layered biometric access governance across laboratories, clean rooms and restricted zones at a national space research facility.

Case study available
Public sector

LIC — pan-India identity management

Biometric attendance and identity verification rolled out across Life Insurance Corporation offices nationwide, at national workforce scale.

Case study available
Healthcare

AIIMS & healthcare institutions

Access control and attendance management across hospital campuses, where shift accuracy and restricted-zone control are patient-safety issues.

Case study available
Heavy industry

JSW, Tata, Welspun, Vedanta, Adani

Access control, contract workforce management and attendance across steel, cement, ports, mining and infrastructure groups — high-headcount sites with continuous contractor churn.

Case studies available
Education & telecom

University and telecom KYC programmes

Faculty attendance monitoring for a digital university programme, and biometric-backed subscriber KYC verification for a national telecom operator.

Case studies available

Verification and citations. Certificates, audit scopes, validity dates and named award citations are provided on request as part of our vendor due-diligence pack. Procurement and security teams can request the full set from our compliance desk — we supply it routinely for enterprise and government evaluations.

How We Keep It Current

Certification is a cycle, not a certificate on a wall.

Because we control our own manufacturing, every hardware revision re-enters this loop before it reaches a customer site.

  1. Stage 01

    Design and in-house build

    Hardware and firmware are designed and manufactured in our own facility, so certification requirements are engineered in from the schematic rather than retrofitted.

  2. Stage 02

    Internal test and biometric benchmarking

    Match accuracy, liveness resistance, environmental tolerance and throughput are benchmarked internally before any external submission.

  3. Stage 03

    Independent certification

    Devices and platforms are submitted to the relevant authority — UIDAI, STQC, MINEX assessment, and CE/FCC conformity bodies for export markets.

  4. Stage 04

    Surveillance audits

    Our ISO management systems are subject to periodic external surveillance audits covering quality, information security, service management, environment and occupational safety.

  5. Stage 05

    Re-certification on revision

    A hardware revision or a material firmware change re-enters the cycle. Customers receive the updated certification position with the release.
