For office towers, parking is more than a utility, it’s part of the daily work routine for tenants, staff, and visitors. Long queues, inefficient season pass management, or lack of visitor allocation can frustrate occupants and impact leasing value.
For property managers and building owners, a smart parking system is also a revenue driver, security enabler, and tenant satisfaction tool. This is where TimeTec Smart Parking System provides the perfect solution, combining License Plate Recognition or LPR, cloud management, and AI-powered features to streamline parking for modern office towers.
1. Seamless Season Pass Management
- Office towers rely heavily on season parking for tenants and staff.
- TimeTec Parking automates season pass management via LPR or RFID Tag, or ePlate, eliminating physical cards or stickers.
- Property Management or Building Owner Tenants can self-manage allocations through a cloud portal, reducing admin workload.
- Tenants can book, renew, terminate their season passes via TimeTec parking cloud portal or TimeTec parking app.
2. Flexible Visitor Parking Integration
- Visitors should not struggle with parking.
- With TimeTec, visitor parking can be:
- Pre-registered via tenant app – iTower.
- Validated at reception or tenant offices.
- Auto-charged based on time spent.
- This ensures a smooth visitor experience and prevents abuse of parking privileges.
3. Multi-Channel Payment Options
- TimeTec supports eWallet Direct (TnG, Setel, GoNet, Flexi) for LPR for cashless and touchless for highest visitors’ convenience, or
- Cashless kiosk for TnG card or Bankcards payments.
4. Parking Guidance & Occupancy Monitoring
- Office hours create peak traffic at morning entry and evening exit.
- Video Parking Guidance System (VPGS) and vehicle counting ensure real-time bay allocation and reduce congestion.

- With TimeTec, reserved bays can be tied to specific tenants or visitor reservations, managed digitally with LPR/VPGS.

- With TimeTec Valet Mode, attendants can:
- Register guest cars quickly.
