Since then, Precise ParkLink has grown into a nation-wide managed services and technology firm with more than 700 employees across Canada, a head office in Toronto, and 13 supporting offices across the country.

But what sets us apart from other parking operators isn’t where we are, it’s what we are: a full-service parking solutions provider. One source for all your parking-related needs.

Precise ParkLink manages thousands of parking lots on behalf of hundreds of property owners. We supply cutting-edge technology and services to thousands of clients in the healthcare, municipal, commercial, institutional, and private sectors.

Being a vertically integrated company puts us in a unique position. We can provide a level of management and technical integration that is best-in-class. Just ask the hundreds of clients to whom we’ve delivered cost-effective and customer-focused solutions over the years.

(YYJ) is the 11th busiest airport in Canada with almost 2 million visitors per year. YYJ was rated one of the top ten most-loved airports in the world by CNN Travel and is the 2012, 2014 and 2020 winner of ‘Best Regional Airport in North America’ by Airports Council International.

Victoria Airport Authority (VAA) is the not-for-profit authority that manages the safe and secure operations of the Victoria International Airport on behalf of the surrounding communities.

The Challenges

In January of 2020, the Victoria Airport Authority (VAA) published an RFP for a Parking Access and Revenue Control System. Their then-current system was quickly approaching end-of-life, with fewer functioning days versus non-functioning days. While their goal was to have the parking experience be part of their overarching vision of making every part of travel interaction as easy as possible, they also faced some very real concerns. At the top of their list—a system that was robust, reliable, and made for the high-volume, high-density, 24/7/365 environment that is unique to airports and hospitals. Other key attributes of the system must include an intuitive customer experience, revenue generation, modern IT architecture, revenue control, audit, and reporting, and system support.

Chief considerations included the fact that the airport is situated on an island, requiring a minimum 3.5-hour trip one-way from anyone in Vancouver, and the existence of an in-place management and service contract with the island’s primary parking operator.The airport’s proximity to downtown Toronto offers passengers convenient access to the centre of Canada’s entertainment, fashion, and financial districts, but its island location poses significant issues for managing parking on both sides of the ferry.

The VAA—in its review and evaluation of submitted proposals—was clear on what they would be rating and evaluating (with a call-to-action for proponents to offer new and/or innovative solutions):

• Equipment and software meet VAA specifications

• Format and quality of the Proposal

• Technical features meet or exceed requirements

• Robust reporting

• Customer service aspects and user experience of equipment design

• Durability and life cycle costs

• Demonstrated reliability and capabilities of service representatives

• Training provided, operational and maintenance

• Service and Maintenance agreement and costs

• Flexibility and scalability to meet future needs

• API driven integrations with third party providers

• Price of equipment

The Solutions

After a Covid-related pause, VAA awarded the contract to Precise ParkLink for not only the supply, installation, commissioning, and advanced maintenance of our pay-on-foot gated technology and our LPR systems, but also for the related, in-scope civil and construction work, as well as the addition of our Parkedin platform with the Mobile Payment module (with the intention to add additional Parkedin modules of interest as they come online, such as our reservations platform).

VAA chose to engage the services of a third party project management team to coordinate project deliverables and take on the role of liaison between VAA and Precise ParkLink, to facilitate and expedite the delivery of the project. This addition to the larger project and implementation team was highly successful and regarded by all as a key component of the timely delivery and accomplishment of the undertaking.

In an unprecedented move, the airport decided to move with a pay station-free configuration; parkers can either pay with Parkedin, pay at exit, or at the one staffed exit lane. With 21 entry and exit lanes equipped with EMV-certified payment solutions and barcode scanners, parkers have adjusted easily to the new payment schema. They also deployed our IPASS solution for permit management and administration (including billing, rights, rules and access management), as well as our ParkSuite BI Tool.

The Results

• Skidata pay-on-foot equipment

• License Plate Recognition

• Parkedin mobile payment

• Equipment and maintenance

• IPASS

• ParkSuite

Final Words

 “Precise ParkLink has made our second largest revenue stream more reliable while simultaneously reducing the capital costs normally associated with capturing parking revenue…we continue to be impressed by their responsiveness in fine tuning the solution as our business needs rapidly evolve.”

About The City of Saskatoon

The City of Saskatoon supports a population of about 278,500 residents in urban and suburban communities centred around where the Yellowhead Highway crosses the South Saskatchewan River. 

The Challenges 

The City’s reliance on single-space meters began posing major operational challenges as its population grew, prompting a decision to move toward more modern multi-space meters with a view to automatic processes and reducing physical hardware. 

The Solutions

A particular pain point for the City was the need to balance the operational changes it needed against a desire to enhance user convenience. To assist, we delivered the new meters a few weeks in advance of city-wide deployment to give residents and City staff alike an opportunity to familiarize themselves with the coming changes. 

Even after many years, we continue to support the City of Saskatoon in designing parking solutions to meet their evolving needs, including supporting their installed hardware while deploying Parkedin as the City’s secure mobile payment solution to enhance user convenience even more. 

The Results

• Flowbird pay-by-plate meters

• Parkedin mobile payment

• ParkPlus integrations

• Tannery Creek integrations

• Secure revenue processing

About Greater Toronto Airport

As operator, the is focused on growing Pearson as an international gateway. Its vision? To be “the best airport in the world” by providing consumers with reliable service and a welcoming atmosphere.

The Challenges

Prior to 2011, Pearson was in need of advanced parking technology that could keep up with the speed of its business. As Canada’s largest parking operation, hosting 50 million passengers a year, the airport requires a parking system that is reliable, secure, nimble and agile—ready to take on whatever comes its way, including a pandemic.

The Solutions

The GTAA prides itself in partnering with best-in-class organizations across the world to help set, meet and exceed the standards that come with being North America’s best airport for three years in a row.

In 2011, the GTAA’s in-house parking management team joined forces with Precise ParkLink to create a secure, reliable and seamless parking operation. To date, this system has allowed the GTAA to exceed its goals and establish a worldclass parking operation.

Precise ParkLink’s in-house research and development team has been an invaluable resource for the GTAA. They have engineered software solutions, such as employee parking management, validations, and EMV-certified contactless payment methods, and integrated them with the market’s most advanced technology, including licence plate recognition, gated parking systems, and electric vehicle charging stations.

Pearson’s parking operation is sustained using an advanced maintenance and technical support program, which ensures its parking technology is operational and secure at all times. The operation is also supported by a full suite of touchless solution options, allowing the GTAA to adapt its services to the new realities of pandemic influenced air travel.

People have the opportunity to drive their car in using license plate recognition, use their phone for parking payments , or they can use our traditional payment methods as well... We’re nimble, we’re ready, we’re agile, we’re working with the best-in-class organizations across the world to help set standards, and also make sure that we are exceeding those standards as well.”

Creating a true ‘downtown’ has been the vision for the since the rapid growth of the 1980s and 1990s changed the city from a quiet collection of communities into a thriving urban centre.

is the city’s downtown core. The vision for this downtown is that it continues to grow as a vibrant, modern urban centre for residents and businesses that encompasses all amenities of urban lifestyle: inspiring multi-use office towers, residences, subway access, open green space, urban squares, pedestrian shopping areas and restaurants, and walking and cycling paths.

The Challenges

As the VMC continues to expand, the city has faced many challenges regarding parking. With significant congestion from the VMC subway station, and only two temporary paid parking lots on-site, it has been difficult for residents, visitors, commuters, and business owners to navigate the area smoothly and find available parking.  

The Solutions

In October 2021, Precise ParkLink successfully deployed an on-street parking program that allows VMC and the city of Vaughan to increase the amount of parking available for passenger pick-up and drop-off, reduce traffic congestion in and around the area, and facilitate safe driver and pedestrian journeys. Paid parking is now enforced through pay-by-license-plate meter technology, fully integrated with �ʲ������徱��™, Precise ParkLink’s mobile payment platform that allows users to scan, pay, and proceed to their destination. Precise ParkLink also deployed a strategic marketing and communications plan unique to the VMC that drives awareness and eases customer pain points.

The Results

• Cale S5 Pay-by-License-Plate parking meters

• Customized marketing and communications strategy

• Wayfinding and instructional signage

• Mobile payment through Parkedin

Final Words

“Throughout our relationship with Precise ParkLink, they have remained responsive and agile, working with us to meet our targets and satisfy customer demand, even when those needs have changed mid-stream. Key to the success of our on-street parking pilot project has been the efforts of their Marketing department, developing engagement strategies that address stakeholder pain points and creating awareness campaigns to drive revenue growth. Precise ParkLink’s flexible approach to project management, technology configuration, account management, and overall project implementation has been outstanding and critical to the program's success. I firmly believe that this success would not be possible without the depth and breadth of Precise ParkLink’s understanding of municipal governments’ priorities and the unique pressures we face.

From the biggest, most elaborate productions that thrill thousands to memorable intimate gatherings, the Superdome adapts and captivates. Located in the heart of the New Orleans Central Business District, the Superdome is among the most enviable venues in the nation. And with a stunning spot on the New Orleans skyline and its iconic design, the Superdome is one of America’s most recognizable landmarks.

The Superdome is not only a key part of the landscape of Louisiana – it’s also a critical piece of the region’s history. In August 2005, the city was ravaged by Hurricane Katrina, and in the wake of the storm, many thought the facility would have to be demolished. In what became the biggest stadium reconstruction project in American history, the Superdome was reborn. It’s reopening was a spark in the city’s post-disaster recovery, and launched a phenomenal rebirth of the sports and entertainment business. With its beauty intact and brilliant lighting, the Superdome is a symbol of the strength of New Orleans, and the city’s enduring spirit and resolve.

is a dynamic regional health care provider that serves a population of more than half a million people across and beyond. Nationally recognized for its commitment to safety and quality patient care, Mackenzie Health comprises Mackenzie Richmond Hill Hospital, the future , as well as a comprehensive network of community-based services in Richmond Hill, Vaughan, and surrounding areas.

The Challenges

Since day one, Mackenzie Health’s vision has been to create a world-class health care experience. Everything the provider does is focused on its patients and community—and this includes its parking program. When Mackenzie Health went to tender for parking equipment and management services, it sought an access and revenue control system that was both user-friendly and reliable. Its goals were simple: to generate some of the revenue required to maintain its facilities, enhance the experience of patients and their families and manage the use of parking at its sites.

The Solutions

Mackenzie Health selected Precise ParkLink as its managed parking services provider more than a decade ago. Since then, Mackenzie Health has experienced the benefits of a health care-focused parking solution. All aspects of day-to-day parking operations have been successfully managed with a strategic combination of people, hardware, and software. This includes multi-space parking meters; gated technology with hardware upgrades, such as EMV-certified banking solutions; support from our centralized services team, including live central monitoring; on-site staffing, permit management and administration; signage; construction, and facility maintenance. Mackenzie Health is as confident today as it was more than 10 years ago in choosing Precise ParkLink as its managed parking services provider, as we have helped it exceed its visitor and patient parking goals. And our partnership continues to evolve. Mackenzie Health recently selected Precise ParkLink via tender to be the managed parking services and technology provider for the new Cortellucci Vaughan Hospital.

The Results

Our partnership has allowed Mackenzie Health to implement an efficient and effective full-service parking solution.

• DG4 Pay-and-Display parking meters

• IPASS™ monthly permits

Final Words

“Precise ParkLink has proven its expertise in the hospital parking industry by providing efficient response times, reliable parking technology and experienced resources—all of which have had a positive impact on improving the patient and visitor experience at Mackenzie Health. Its turnkey parking solution integrates multiple health care sites, resulting in an efficient, smart and timeless parking solution that Mackenzie Health can rely on for years to come.

The is a mixed-use development maintained by . The multipurpose parking facility caters to residential, commercial, and retail parking users. At nearly 700,000 square feet, the Yonge Sheppard Centre's parking facility is the second-largest in the GTA.

The Challenges

Following a change in tenants, the Yonge Sheppard Centre saw a dramatic reduction in the number of vehicles parking after 11:00 p.m. As a result, RioCan began exploring how they could effectively maintain a premium customer service experience without substantial traffic volumes to warrant 24/7 staffing throughout their parking facilities. With an immediate need to minimize operating expenses, RioCan approached Precise ParkLink for a solution.

"When we approached their client relations team with an emerging need to create operational staffing efficiencies, it was clear they understood what the issue was and exactly how they could resolve it to our complete satisfaction. Simply put, they were eager to help however they could," said Rosa Garofalo, General Manager at Yonge Sheppard Centre.

The Solution

Upon receiving RioCan’s request, Precise ParkLink proposed deploying their Interactive Parking Assistance Response Centre (IPARC™) program to continue providing a 24/7 service and support presence for Yonge Sheppard Centre’s customers without having to commit to staffing a dedicated overnight shift.

Within less than one week, our technicians were on-site, making the necessary modifications to the hardware. Our client relations manager worked closely with RioCan to develop a specific site profile. “I could not have been more pleased with Precise ParkLink’s implementation team. The transition to the IPARC system was completely seamless, and we received no customer complaints about the two-day installation period," said Garofalo.

This was our client's opportunity to outline what kind of service they want their customers to receive — right down to a standardized greeting, how to process lost ticket requests, where pay stations are located to direct customers, how to provide payment instructions, and more. From this, we developed formal operating procedures for the site and distributed the document to our IPARC client care team, who would ultimately be responsible for providing the overnight coverage.

"Precise ParkLink invited me to their live central monitoring facility. Immediately, I was impressed with the quality of their call centre staff. They answered calls within a few seconds, greeted each customer in a friendly tone, and were knowledgeable about each site's specific requirements," said Garafolo.

By offering 24/7/365 coverage, the IPARC solution gives our clients total flexibility in deciding what support they need and want. Yonge Sheppard Centre could leverage IPARC as a low-cost staffing alternative without sacrificing service levels or equipment reliability. Our factory-trained monitoring staff not only provide overnight coverage for eight hours seven days a week, but they are available during regular business hours to act as a backup for breaks and in the case of emergencies.

Final Words

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Precise ParkLink since 2005 and have personally witnessed the professionalism of their staff and the responsiveness of their service as our operation needs have evolved over the years.

The efficiencies that Precise ParkLink has afforded us are all the more impactful as commercial and property management firms across Canada feel the pressure of diminished revenues from their parking operations. Even in these unprecedented times, our investment in Precise ParkLink's solutions continues to pay dividends. The IPARC service has allowed us to remain agile in the face of uncertainty, continuing to offer our tenants and their customers a premium experience without the risk of in-person interactions.

As a property manager with significant national representation, RioCan needs to attract the best tenants with industry-leading technology and customer services. Time and time again, Precise ParkLink has proven to be an enthusiastic and innovative partner in meeting these strategic goals."

The is the capital city of Canada, and is nestled within the province of Ontario. It is the fourth-largest urban region in the country, with over 1.4 million Canadians calling the city home. Known as both an English and French-speaking region, the City of Ottawa is renowned for its world-class research centres, academic institutions and international business operations.

The Challenges

Before partnering with Precise ParkLink, the City of Ottawa had no existing procurement contract with a parking provider. The parking infrastructure was being managed solely by the city themselves, posing a series of challenges such as regular maintenance and technical difficulties. The existing coin-based parking technology throughout the city made it difficult to monitor the performance of on- and off-street parking throughout the city.  

The Solutions

As the City of Ottawa’s managed parking service and technology provider for over ten years, Precise ParkLink has supplied, installed and continues to manage the city’s parking infrastructure, allowing them to meet and exceed their resident and visitor-focused parking needs. Because of this, in October 2020, the council unanimously approved a 5-year extension of the procurement contract. Ottawa’s investment in over 700 pay-and-display parking meters for both on- and off-street parking, secure revenue processing, collection, replenishment and reporting, and a maintenance and technical support package to sustain their parking equipment have proven to and will continue to be successful for years to come.

The Results

• DG7 Pay-and-Display parking meters

• Secure revenue processing, collection and replenishment

• Financial reporting

• Ongoing maintenance and technical support

The is located in the province of Ontario, on Toronto's west end. It is situated on the shores of Lake Ontario in the Regional Municipality of Peel. With over 700,000 people, the City of Mississauga is the sixth-most populous municipality in Canada, third-most in Ontario, and second-most in the Greater Toronto Area. The city is known to be a popular destination for shopping, recreation and events.

The Challenges

Before partnering with Precise ParkLink, the City of Mississauga had no prior procurement contract with a parking provider. This posed a series of challenges for the city, as it had no way of regulating both on and off-street parking. As one of Ontario's most populous cities, with thousands of visitors each day, the City of Mississauga was set on implementing a parking solution that would meet the city's distinct needs. In addition to increasing the number of parking spaces available to residents and visitors, the City of Mississauga's parking solution needed to generate revenue to manage parking for the municipality successfully.

The Solutions

Precise ParkLink was able to offer best in class management and technical integration services for the City of Mississauga. For nearly 15 years, Precise ParkLink and the City of Mississauga's partnership has allowed for a resident and visitor focused parking solution for the city. The municipality's investment in Flowbird's Strada DG7 meters for both on- and off-street parking, secure revenue processing, a maintenance and technical support package to sustain their parking equipment, and mobile payment solutions have proven to be successful and will maintain the needs of the city for years to come.

The Results

• Flowbird Strada DG7 parking meters

• Secure revenue processing
