Problem

Transitioning to a hybrid work model, Uber faced challenges in parking management at their bustling Mission Bay office. With 3500 employees vying for just 465 parking spots, the situation led to early morning congestion and tailbacks around the office. The limited availability and high demand created a critical need for an efficient arrival solution.

“Wayleadr turned empty parking spots into hubs of efficiency, saved us tons of wasted admin time, and made manual management a thing of the past. Now, we have the insights we need on space utilization, making every space work smarter for us.”
- Angela Genochio, ​Transportation Program at Uber

Problem

Uber tackled its parking challenges by strategically implementing Wayleadr’s all-in-one Arrival solution, a culmination of multiple phases of improvements through a collaborative partnership.

The introduction of a reservation system, utilizing Wayleadr’s allocation algorithm, allowed Uber employees to secure parking spots in advance, significantly reducing congestion around the busy Mission Bay office.

This system was seamlessly integrated with the existing Skidata access control, ensuring entry only for employees with reservations, thereby streamlining enforcement for the Uber Transportation team.

Additionally, Uber pioneered the use of Wayleadr’s Waypool feature, an innovative carpool solution, accommodating more users within the existing parking infrastructure while actively reducing single-occupancy vehicle travel.

Addressing the dynamic needs of busy office days, Wayleadr developed a special pillar day feature for efficient space management.

Furthermore, the introduction of a new Assistant feature simplified parking management for executives, offering digital delegation capabilities for their Personal Assistants. Alongside this, the Guaranteed Days feature, allowed executives or their PAs to make their unused parking spots available to colleagues, optimizing space utilization.
