EZ Tag, a subsidiary company of Group Techna has provided excellent customer service to the DC Department of Public Works (DPW) for the past four years. EZ Tag’s Parking Enforcement product has been very stable and has fully met expectations from DC/DPW Parking Services Administration. From a Support standpoint EZ Tag’s Analysts are always available to immediately address any ongoing operations issues that surface. It is a rare situation indeed when we do not immediately get to speak to a EZ Tag Support Analyst whenever we call the EZ Tag Support Line. Most issues are solved quickly and to our complete satisfaction. Whenever product enhancements or System upgrades are delivered EZ Tag takes the necessary steps to ensure that the changes are first thoroughly tested and deployed in a staggered & controlled manner in order to minimize the risk to our large Ongoing Operations of 300 Handheld Computers employing MES Ticketing Software.

Recently, we especially appreciated EZ Tag’s initiative to visit DPW and conduct an information session, with our Senior Management in attendance, to advise DPW of the latest technological innovations available in the Parking Enforcement arena. In summary, we highly value our relationship with EZ Tag and look forward to working closely with EZ Tag on future initiatives in order to both improve & maintain our Parking Enforcement Operation at peak levels of efficiency & feature rich content.

INTRODUCING MES PERMIT MANAGMENT - PARKING PERMIT SYSTEM
Faced with a growing demand, organizations and agencies need to enhance and simplify their system for parking permit management and the sharing of permit information with the by-law enforcement departments. The solution has to be seamless, responsive and convenient - without increases to administrative costs. Group Techna offers a flexible and robust permit management system. Our Parking Permit System (PPS) will not only accommodate the projected growth in demand, it also offers additional features and services - without requiring one to increase permit fees..
A significant challenge exists in both the managing of parking permit orders and the processing of their inevitable counterpart, citations.

PPS is a logical choice for a seamless computer system that can process permit purchases by sharing permit information with by-law enforcement departments via rugged handheld computers and wireless communications.

PPS is Microsoft Windows NT based and requires a minimal workstation configured with WIN 95/98/2000 client. The system includes many management reports and additional reports can be developed and customized by the client.

The actual permits can be either preprinted forms or printed completely using standard office laser printers. Some clients choose to use preprinted forms whereby the Parking Permit System will add permit owner specific information and a bar code (if required for scanning permit numbers) using standard office laser printers.
PPS is interactive and user-friendly, provides many functions and services and offers a viable alternative to older or manually operated systems. Instead of wading through stacks of hand written color -coded permits, a client can now search on a single screen and find the entire account or permit purchasing history. This is simpler and more efficient than working through the layered options of a manual system.

Most importantly, permit information can be automatically downloaded daily to the enforcement department's hand held computers for the use of their officers when enforcing permit infractions. This extra convenience allows enforcement staff to verify the validity of permits by scanning the bar code using an integrated scanner on the hand held computers. This validation is crucial in identifying counterfit permits that are easily replicated using today's imaging technologies that are readily available to the public.

Looking to the future, agencies and institutions can offer a wider range of services to their residents or staff such as permit purchasing via the Internet, as well as automated payments using the online PPS. Thanks to group Techna's PPS, parking facilities can continue to grow and offer new features to meet the evolving needs of the population at large - without increasing the costs of permit purchases.
Group Techna's solution is convenient, easy to use, and cost-effective. It provides clients with easier access and more options, without any increase in administrative costs. It also allows enforcement officers to validate permits.
Group Techna is a mobile automation software development company, enabling business critical tasks to be performed on handheld devices to improve user productivity, reduce operating expenses and increase management visibility. Our enforcement solutions are built around three fundamental elements: innovation, cost-effectiveness and reliability.
