    WHY FRAPORT, ONE OF 200 AIRPORTS WORLDWIDE, CHOSE DESIGNA’S PARKING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

    Frankfurt Airport is number 1 in Germany, number 3 in Europe, and number 12 in the world. Fraport AG handles more than 60 million passenger movements annually. Managing 14,000 spaces for season parkers and 15,000 public parking spaces sets the highest demands. The DESIGNA system is able to showcase its full capabilities here.

    With a convincing migration concept, including upgrades during ongoing operation of the parking facilities, DESIGNA was awarded the contract by Fraport AG at the end of 2012 for installation of a new parking management system as part of a Europe-wide tender. Less than two years later, 330 entrance terminals, 75 exit terminals, and 66 automated pay stations have been installed.

    THE CHALLENGE

    Fraport AG is one of the largest parking management operators in Europe. To upgrade this system was a complex challenge of its own. The area provides 57,000 on-airport and off-airport parking spaces.

    The primary goals included reliability and dealing with huge transaction traffic - 12 million parking events take place every year.
