Case Studies
We Provide the Following Services to Universities and Further Education Establishments
Enforcement Hardware and Software
We can provide Smartphones loaded with our Rialto enforcement software and also portable Bluetooth printers. This will allow users to enforce the terms and conditions as set out on your signage.
Real-Time Data Transfer
Real-time data transfer allows Parking Charge Notice (PCN) data to be uploaded immediately to the Open Parking website. QR codes can be added to PCNs. Using a smartphone, the motorist will be able to scan the QR code and gain immediate access to the ‘view evidence/make payment’ screen of the Open Parking website, improving the speed of payment to the university.
ScanSmarti
ScanSmarti is our Smartphone ANPR software that significantly speeds up the patrol process. It allows authorised users to continuously scan VRMs whilst walking without the need to stop. ScanSmarti will instantly identify whether a vehicle has a valid permit or has paid for parking. This is a particularly useful tool for universities as it significantly speeds up the patrol process, lessening the cost to the university.
Business Processing
Our award-winning Business Processing Unit will process all PCNs on behalf of the university. We offer a staffed call-centre that is in operation between the hours of 9am – 5pm, Monday to Friday, so that the motorist is able to speak directly to a trained advisor. There is also a 24-hour ATP line allowing motorists to pay their PCN securely over a phone.
Parking Signage
As part of our services, we are able to conduct site surveys and provide signage that conforms to the standards of the International Parking Community (IPC). The Trust has complete freedom over the design and the branding of the signs as long as they remain compliant to the standards above. We will replace old signs or overlay existing ones to keep costs down.
Parking Permits
We can manage permits on behalf of the University. This is done using our powerful permit management software, PermitSmarti. PermitSmarti allows you to manage your service delivery differently by allowing staff, students and visitors to interact with services provided and transfer control to them 24/7. This is achieved through a real-time portal integrated with the university’s website.
Staff and students apply online through the PermitSmarti portal, which is branded with the look and feel of your website.
The system can accommodate an infinite range of permit types, including those based on Co2 emissions, tiered pricing or salary band. This can assist with the implementation of green travel plans as well as allowing you to meet your environmental objectives. We are also able to integrate with HR systems to enable monthly salary deductions. Once approved, permits are uploaded to the back office and available instantaneously on smartphones.
VoucherSmarti
Visitor parking can be controlled by authorised parking or departmental staff using our PermitSmarti add on, VoucherSmarti. VoucherSmarti will run 24/7 via a university branded portal allowing visitors to book parking on demand. Each department is given an allocation to ensure that the service is not oversubscribed. This is an excellent alternative to scratchcards and reduces impact on the environment. All permits are offered virtually and are instantly identifiable on the smartphone.
Any of our solutions are available on a management fee basis to universities and further educational establishments. Each solution offered will meet the unique needs and priorities of your site, ensuring your parking management operation is seamless as well as offering excellent value for money.
