A complete parking technology & logistics solution

The Walsh-Fluor Design-Build Team came to the only company capable of providing as seamless and flexible a solution as possible, while also considering the logistical challenges of finding parking for lots of vehicles combined with appealing to the sentiment of frustrated neighborhood residents. ParqEx sat down with the Walsh-Fluor Design-Build Team to fully understand the logistics of the project, the neighborhood, the scope of drivers and guests, and propose a solution to accommodate the construction and the neighborhood. After understanding the full scope of the project, how many residents would be displaced, and accounting for an educated estimate of additional guests to the area, ParqEx proposed a solution that included Access+, GuestParq, and the ParqEx Marketplace.

 

 

A small network of logistical properties

Four parking locations were set up on the ParqEx Marketplace, where drivers could simply select their preferred location in the ParqEx app and reserve their parking spot, in advance, from the comfort of anywhere. Every spot was set to $0, a special feature for Walsh-Fluor only. ParqEx also implemented GuestParq, which allowed residents to reserve spots for their guests in advance, allowing for the same seamless arrival experience.

 

 

“Our project had a unique parking situation that needed to be addressed, affecting hundreds of people in the neighborhood. The ParqEx team put significant effort into understanding our situation and devised a custom solution to handle all aspects of parking. In addition, they provided adequate training and continued supporting my team when needed throughout the project.”

The beauty of easy access

For a property with gated access, ParqEx provided approved residents with Access+, which allows the driver to access and operate the gate or door with just a tap inside of the ParqEx app. This feature could also be shared with approved guests through GuestParq.

 

 

ParqEx makes a sticky situation simple

While the learning curve for the ParqEx technology suite is nearly instantaneous, the ParqEx team also composed a detailed user guide for anyone who required further information and instruction on how and where to park, how to access gated entry, and how to share with guests. These guides and tutorials benefited residential parkers who had never had any experience with a parking app before ParqEx, and were all included on an exclusive ParqEx landing page, built solely for displaced residents and their guests.
