Problem
The Interiors Group’s employee car park was very unpredictable. Some days it was practically empty while other days it filled long before 9 am. A large volume of staff who regularly work in retail outlets and only visit headquarters occasionally meant predicting and managing parking flow was tough.
Employee’s often drove to work expecting space to be available and end up having to drive around local car parks looking for somewhere to pay and park as the staff car park was full.
Solution
The Interiors Group rolled out Wayleadr’s full optimization and automation solution to tackle their parking challenges. All staff were permitted to book a parking space as they needed it on-site. The Wayleadr algorithm allocated the spaces based on the business needs of the Interiors Group.
Wayleadr automated all parking communications with staff and also provided staff with the ability to check parking availability and occupancy in real-time, anytime, any place.
