Service wins the game
Service is becoming more and more the focus of todays parking industry, with conveniences from vehicle cleaning to technical services and petrol filling. However, demand for service-focussed support of their business workflow is also growing among car park operators themselves. In response to this market trend, SKIDATA introduces a range of hosted services for car park operators under the motto, Access as a Service.REMCO (Remote Monitoring and Control)
intelligent new technologies to keep watch over car park management systems and ensure trouble-free round-the-clock availability of critical IT infrastructures on behalf of the operator.SKIDATA Data Warehouse
another hosted service, is specifically designed to evaluate collected transaction details in accordance with the operators business needs. This helps operators to cut costs, optimise their resources and concentrate on customer relations.New technologies on the rise
As the parking business evolves, new technologies such as Near-Field Communication (or NFC for short) offer new levels of service and convenience. Based on the new technology, which can turn mobile phones into electronic tickets or credit cards, SKIDATA has developed the Car Finder service, which lets car owners download the details of their cars location in the car park to their NFC-enabled phone via a so-called Smart Poster. This makes the dreaded search for ones car in large car parks a thing of the past.NFC is expected to be available on most of the major brand mobiles within a year from now.
