During spring 2003, the city of Gothenburg, Sweden, invited tenders for the supply of new parking equipment. The winner of the tender was Cale Access AB, who has signed a contract over several of years with the Parking Division of the City of Gothenburg.
The City of Gothenburg already has a large number of older Cale MP 8008 machines installed, which now will be replaced with new Cale MP 104 terminals accepting credit card payment. At the same time, the area for paid parking will be expanded, meaning that a large number of terminals will be installed. The total number of terminals to be delivered is some 400 units, which means that Cale Access keeps and strengthens its already strong position on the west coast of Sweden.
Cale Access credit card processing service is already in use by the city of Gothenburg. As the old MP 8008 machines are replaced, all of the new terminals will be equipped with GSM modems for the transfer of sales statistics, alarms, black lists for bad credit cards and the collection of credit card transactions. The data is then processed with Argus, a back-office software developed by Cale Access. The advantages with on-line terminals are a more efficient parking operation and a large cost saving.
”We look forward to the continued cooperation with the city of Gothenburg with great enthusiasm. Our domestic market is very important to us and we are very pleased with the great confidence given to us by the city with this contract” says Johan Broman, Sales Manager of Cale Access
Cale Access, founded in 1955 and specialized in products for parking, has become one of the leading suppliers of advanced and flexible pay & display machines in the world with subsidiaries in Norway, United Kingdom, Canada and Germany (partly). With the experience Cale Access has gained over the years, Cale Access is today in a position where the company’s products have been installed in about 40 countries around the world.
