Unity5: What to Expect From a Parking Enforcement Solution

Parking enforcement is a critical element in managing parking facilities, whether you’re a private parking operator or a local authority. A reliable parking enforcement solution can streamline operations, reduce costs, and improve overall efficiency.

Unity5’s Zatpark parking enforcement solution is designed to simplify complex parking and enforcement management processes. In this article, we’ll explore what you can expect from Unity5’s parking enforcement solution, its key features, and the benefits it brings to private parking operators and local authorities alike.

What is a Parking Enforcement Solution?

A parking enforcement solution automates the entire lifecycle of parking contraventions, from issuing tickets to processing appeals, payments, and legal actions. The goal of such a solution is to enhance the enforcement process by reducing manual tasks, increasing efficiency, and improving compliance. Unity5’s Zatpark offers a fully automated platform that helps businesses and local authorities manage parking operations from start to finish.

Unity5’s Zatpark offers comprehensive automation across the entire enforcement process. From issuing tickets to managing appeals and payments, the solution automates every step, allowing teams to focus on strategic tasks rather than manual work. This results in faster operations, reduced errors, and increased revenue.

2. Cloud-based flexibility

Zatpark is a cloud-first platform, meaning it is accessible from anywhere with an internet connection. This provides ultimate flexibility for private parking operators and local authorities, ensuring parking management can be done remotely, reducing the need for on-site infrastructure and offering real-time updates on parking activity.

3. Seamless integration with existing systems

Zatpark integrates seamlessly with existing hardware, including ANPR cameras, barriers, cashless payment apps, and payment gateways. This ensures that your current systems continue to operate smoothly while benefiting from enhanced enforcement automation, all without the need for costly hardware upgrades.

For operators looking to improve mobile enforcement, Zatmobile allows enforcement officers to manage parking contraventions directly from their mobile devices. Zatmobile is designed to speed up the process of scanning parked vehicles, ensuring accurate ticketing without the need for manually entering registration numbers.

Zatpark’s node flow feature visualises the status of every parking ticket, allowing operators to track the lifecycle of a contravention from start to finish. This feature simplifies complex workflows, helping staff manage tickets more efficiently and reduce administrative overhead.
