Property Technology for Campuses

College and university campuses are some of the busiest places daily. They are filled with creative, passionate, unconventional, forward-thinking, and brilliant minds searching for ways to continue to grow. Even when it is not the school year, these campuses are still frequented by hundreds of students and faculty doing research, etc. As these schools are continuously bustling with life, efficiency is essential but, more often than not, tossed to the wayside.

For these schools to operate at full capacity day after day, college and university campuses need property technology that can handle all their requirements. For example, some campuses need a better handle on their parking management system; some require an internal tenant management platform. In addition, some campuses need help figuring out visitor parking, and some need a secure access control system for their dorms and apartments. ParqEx’s property tech platform meets all of these requirements and more. See how our property technology for campuses can fit your school’s needs.

Access + & Access + Touchless

ParqEx’s Access + technology amplifies security at all college and university campuses. With our tech, only approved individuals can access any electronic door, garage door, gate arm, elevator, common area, research facilities, gym, library, classrooms, dorm rooms, apartment buildings, etc. Through the Access + app, approved users can access these entry and exit points via smartphones. As only pre-approved users can gain access, campus security has complete control of which facilities every campus member can get into, thus drastically improving safety.

Do some research labs need extra caution due to health and safety concerns? Our Access + Touchless line is the solution. With our full touchless technology on-site, professors, students, and research assistants no longer have to touch any door. Instead, all doors can be opened via users’ phones.

If your school is also seeking ways to cut costs, eliminating all antiquated pieces of access control technology is a surefire way to do it. By ridding of kiosks, keycards, fobs, student ID cards, etc., your college or university is sure to cut costs, all while increasing the security of the entire school. Regarding safety, should a security issue ever happen on campus, ParqEx’s robust reporting system and management platform provide immediate real-time reporting on all access points on campus. Discover more ways our access + property technology for campuses will take the security and efficiency of your college/university to the next level.

Access + Premium LPR

If your campus needs a better handle on all parking management, you are not alone! Many college and university campuses are swamped with daily tasks that prevent proper enforcement of all campus parking. ParqEx’s Access + Premium License Plate Recognition technology simplifies enforcement and management of all parking across campus. With LPR, only approved driver’s license plates can gain access to the parking facilities. All they have to do is approach our forensic license plate reading cameras, and once their vehicles are verified and approved, they are admitted to the parking structure. Like Access +, with LPR, you can eliminate all keycards, fobs, tickets, punch pads, kiosks, and any parking tag system your school may be operating on.

If one of your primary concerns for your college or university is campus security, ParqEx’s LPR cameras provide an additional security benefit. These cameras constantly monitor every vehicle entering and exiting the property, thus giving you peace of mind that you know precisely which student, guest, employee, or faculty member is where and at what time. But to take it one step further, studies have repeatedly shown that simply having a camera on the property drastically reduces crime and vandalism rates. So why not add another piece of crime deterrent to your campus? Learn more about ParqEx’s LPR property technology for campuses. 

Enforcer

Enforcing any property has its fair share of challenges. But college campuses genuinely do come with their flair of difficulties. As they are notorious for people constantly being on the move, campus security has many moving pieces they have to keep their eye on. Using ParqEx’s Enforcer App, campus security will gain real-time parking enforcement capabilities. Through the app, security can quickly verify all vehicles on the entire campus, issue parking violations, ticket offending vehicles, and reeducate parkers on the parking rules on campus.

Like our entire access + line, the Enforcer App is a great avenue to cut costs as you will no longer need any printed tags, passes, or guest passes for all vehicles on campus. Gain peace of mind with ParqEx’s Enforcer App property technology for campuses.

GuestParq

Every parking facility finds guest parking to be a hassle. It is either too time-consuming, too difficult to enforce, annoying to constantly have to validate parking or just too much of a headache for enforcement. With ParqEx’s GuestParq, you can now easily manage guest parking, eliminate all headaches, and impress all prospective students and their visiting parents. Via the ParqEx app, now admissions and recruitment offices can reserve guest parking ahead of time and transfer the parking spots directly to visiting guests via email or text.

Stop fussing with visitor parking on your campus. Instead, let ParqEx increase your security and efficiency, all while impressing all campus visitors. Learn more about ParqEx’s guest parking property technology for campuses!

Marketplace

We know that campuses are only sometimes sitting at total capacity year-round. Of course, as mentioned, summer is busy for anyone remaining on campus for research, but the everyday hustle and bustle is a little tamer. Therefore, during winter, fall, spring, and summer break, we are confident a surplus of parking is available on your campus. You can list your unused parking spaces on ParqEx’s Marketplace during these times. This allows the college or university to rent out their parking to transient renters seeking parking there. In addition, by listing these spaces on our Marketplace, the campus can earn additional revenue during its “off-season.” Learn more about ParqEx’s Marketplace technology for campuses that will bring in easy extra income for your school.

White Label

Does this all seem like something your campus needs, but you know the college/university board will be hesitant about having another company’s brand visible across campus? Have they tossed around the idea of investing in their own proprietary technology for the school? Well, we have fantastic news for you! All six of our modules can become yours through white label! So allow us to be your in-house developers while boosting your school’s brand. Let us save you money! Check out how ParqEx’s White Labeling property technology for campuses takes all schools to the next level.

How to Generate Revenue Using White Label Solutions

No matter the situation at any business, revenue is always a top priority. There are constant reoccurring costs and undoubtedly the dreaded unexpected costs that always sneak up on you. Of course, bringing in enough revenue to cover day-to-day expenses and the high lurking costs you were not planning for is essential. With all this in mind, adding various revenue streams to your business is a great decision. 

Commercial & industrial corporations, property owners, and property management companies: are you seeking to add income to your business? Read on to discover how to generate revenue using white label solutions!

What is White Label?

In layman’s terms, white labeling allows different companies to put their brand on another company’s product for a specific price. Let’s take ParqEx’s White Label Solutions, for example! We have designed and developed our state-of-the-art Smart Parking Solutions platform and allow any company seeking a robust parking management system to rebrand it with their branding. All for a simple SaaS fee, ParqEx becomes their in-house developers, while these companies gain an amenity-rich tech stack.

Offer All ParqEx Solutions Under Your Brand

To get into the nitty-gritty of all the avenues your company can add revenue through ParqEx’s white label solutions, we have to do a quick overview of our product suite. ParqEx’s product suite consists of six different modules and apps. 

First, Marketplace, our revenue-generating engine, allows customers and management to find and list parking spots on the app. This straightforward module monetizes all existing parking assets while simultaneously boosting revenue.

Second, GuestParq is our guest parking platform. Using GuestParq, companies can eliminate all hassles around tenant visitor parking. The app lets tenants and staff reserve guest parking immediately and hassle-free.

Third is Access +, our proprietary IoT access control technology that ensures secure access to any locked entry or exit. From the app, authorized individuals can gain access to the property without the need for staff.

Fourth, the Enforcer App is our enforcement module that grants you real-time access to all vehicles entering and exiting the property, making enforcement that much easier. Any violation or ticketing needing handling can be done directly through the app.

Fifth, our automated and touchless license plate reading technology (LPR) allows verified vehicles to enter the property through infrared cameras that register their license plate as soon as they pull up.

Sixth, we offer touchless Access + solutions for all access points within any building. Access + Touchless completely retrofit any door and allows all visitors, tenants, residents, and staff to open doors touch-free via the app.

Generate Revenue With ParqEx’s Solutions

To start, let’s look at Marketplace. Most properties have a surplus in parking at various times of the day. Unsurprisingly, a significant revenue stream can be added to any property by listing these spaces on Marketplace. Through ParqEx’s parking reservation system, transient renters seeking parking can find these spaces and pay money for them on an hourly, daily, or monthly basis.

With GuestParq, there is a straightforward way of earning money: charge for visitor parking. With the GuestParq platform, whether you charge the tenant for their guest parking or the visitor, it is all handled within the app.

Access + and LPR are critical pieces of the money-earning potential of any property. Most properties have either gates or garage doors for their parking. Expectedly, this only allows approved individuals to access the property. With Access + and LPR, transient renters seeking parking in the area can now gain access to parking establishments, adding income to the property. (Property owners and management have complete control over who gains access to the property and can revoke access rights whenever necessary.)

Lastly, the Enforcer App provides quick ways to add money to your property. By employing the enforcer app, management can verify all vehicles on the property. Whenever there is a violation, tickets are immediately sent to the vehicle’s owner via the app. Strict enforcement of your property is not only essential for security, but it provides another easy revenue stream.

Generate Revenue With White Label

Another revenue-adding benefit of white labeling ParqEx’s solutions is that your company can now legally repackage and sell this parking solution platform. As explained, ParqEx’s tech suite is already designed and built to generate revenue daily for your business. However, the ability to sell these market-proven technologies takes your company’s revenue-generating opportunities to the next level.
