The George W. Bush Presidential Center in Dallas is a renowned institution dedicated to preserving President Bush’s legacy through its library and research initiatives.
The Center faced parking challenges due to limited space and high demand, leading to costly and time-consuming parking searches for staff and visitors.
Wayleadr streamlined parking with efficient management and equitable access, introducing priority tiers and real-time tracking to simplify parking for various user groups.
Wayleadr’s solution reduced parking costs, saved time, ensured fair access for VIPs and staff, and improved operational efficiency, supporting the Center’s mission effectively.
The George W. Bush Presidential Center, located in Dallas, Texas, is a leading institution dedicated to preserving President Bush’s legacy and fostering public engagement through its library, museum, and research initiatives.
The introduction of Wayleadr at the George W. Bush Presidential Center in Dallas stemmed from a strategic need to address parking challenges and promote equitable access to limited parking resources.
With more employees than parking spaces available, the Center faced a pressing issue of imbalance between parking demand and availability.
In an urban area like Dallas, where street parking rates can range from $5 to $20 per hour, and daily rates average $15 to $30, finding suitable parking can prove both costly and time-consuming.
Moreover, prior to Wayleadr’s implementation, the process of finding parking lacked efficiency, with users having to navigate multiple lots to check for availability. The centre had a need for differentiating between five different Tiers of leadership which needed to have different parking priorities as well as some being assigned to specific spaces versus others needing to request available ones.
Wayleadr addressed the parking limitations by streamlining parking management and introducing equity. Before Wayleadr, finding parking was costly time-consuming, with users checking multiple lots for availability. With rates in Dallas ranging from $5 to $20 per hour, and daily rates from $15 to $30, this was a significant issue.
Wayleadr improved efficiency by showing availability and occupancy tracking, saving time and frustration. It also introduced a fairer system with five priority tiers, catering to VIPs and Board Members. Special assignments for them were seamlessly integrated, whether guaranteed or upon request. Additionally, Wayleadr was able, upon request from the centre, to differentiate between lots that were solely for employees vs once that were for both employees and visitors.
Looking ahead, Wayleadr and the Center are working together to find the best way to open its parking to the public, potentially generating revenue. For a non-profit like the George W. Bush Presidential Center, Wayleadr’s cost-saving measures and operational efficiencies are invaluable, allowing resources to be better allocated to its mission and programs.
