Parking Meters

   The Centre for Excellence’s Meter*Manager*2000 module is a comprehensive tool to manage any types of parking meter, either electronic or mechanical operation, or a combination of types.  Meter*Manager*2000 supplements the cash counting operations by providing an audit trail over time for each meter providing information regarding site usage, maintenance, comparison to adjacent groups and setting of pricing policies.

   There have been notable fraud cases with parking meters, for instance at Brisbane City Council and there has been lack of scrutiny, for instance at Sydney City Council where a meter did not operate for eighteen months and management was unaware of the problem.  

   Meter*Manager*2000 was initially developed by North Sydney Council for the management of their 500 meters and by agreement to be further developed, enhanced and maintained by The Centre for Excellence.

   The data from cash collections is transferred electronically to Meter*Manager*2000 and the daily audit automatically printed for the Council's Manager.  Meter*Manager*2000 provides details between dates of weekly and annual income for individual or all meters, lost cash boxes and meters, cash box discrepancies and errors, meter collection days, programme groups and items are identified and with hard-copy reporting.

Design Philosophy

   Easy-to-use screens with logical field sequences, validation and a fully Windows GUI environment facilitate the capturing and management of application developments.  A comprehensive reporting system and ad-hoc query abilities allows user to access information stored in the system, quickly and easily.
