PASHA member wAI Industries, operating through its subsidiary ISSM Labelling Solutions Private Limited, has deployed its Digital Eye computer vision platform across Pakistan’s textile, sugar, beverages, tiles, and cement industries, working in direct collaboration with the Federal Board of Revenue and spinning mills to bring Artificial Intelligence-driven production monitoring and compliance automation to one of the country’s most economically significant industrial base.
The deployment is directly connected to a Federal Board of Revenue directive that has mandated the installation of video analytics systems across manufacturing units. A Sales Tax General Order issued under the Sales Tax Act, 1990, has required all tile manufacturing units to install video analytics systems by April 30, 2026, with the Federal Board of Revenue empowered to stop the delivery and dispatch of goods produced without electronic monitoring in place. The Honourable Lahore High Court has already vacated a stay that had been granted to the tiles sector regarding video monitoring, removing a key legal obstacle to the rollout and accelerating the timeline for compliance across affected industries.
Through the Digital Eye platform, wAI Industries is enabling the Federal Board of Revenue and spinning mills to consolidate real-time operational analytics, automate compliance checks, and maintain end-to-end visibility across critical production processes. The system is built around scalable Artificial Intelligence models, edge computing, and secure data pipelines, making it suited to the demands of high-throughput industrial environments where accuracy and regulatory alignment must be maintained simultaneously. Rather than functioning purely as a surveillance or monitoring layer, Digital Eye is positioned as a unified digital audit framework across the production chain, generating structured data that supports both internal operational decisions and external regulatory reporting requirements.
PASHA highlighted the wAI Industries deployment as part of its Milestone Saturday series, which regularly features achievements by member companies of the Pakistan Information Technology Industry Association. The recognition reflects growing momentum around Artificial Intelligence adoption in Pakistan’s traditional industrial sectors, where computer vision and real-time analytics are increasingly being used not just for efficiency gains but as foundational infrastructure for tax compliance, traceability, and accountability at scale.
