Parking Permits

Apply is a web-based parking permit/licensing management system for councils. Developed by NSL, it accommodates virtual and paper-based permits and licenses as well as emission-based pricing schemes and has been designed to encourage customer self-service and reduce administrative costs. The platform is highly configurable and can be customised to meet specific client requirements. It can be fully integrated into an existing enforcement software system or set up as a completely standalone system. As well as being accessibility compliant to assist users with disabilities, the platform features a wide range of functionality including:

• Prepay and Pay As You Go visitor sessions
• Tiered pricing
• Printed or email reminders
• Variable permit/license limits
• Bulk printing
• Full integration with third party services such as Experian, Auto Guru
• Full integration with multiple ANPR solutions
• Account-based to promote self-service and management of own permits
• Renders to any mobile device so customers can manage on the move

Apply is already in daily use by an increasing number of councils across the UK. The size and scope of these deployments range from the fully integrated to a smaller standalone system. NSL is committed to work with clients of every size to develop solutions that meet their specific requirements.

Marston’s Notice Processing System (MNPS)

We’ve been in civil parking enforcement for over 20 years, so we know a lot about notice processing systems. We’ve been primary users of existing systems, both on street and in the back-office. Our expertise in this area, married with our technical capabilities have enabled us to develop the ultimate NPS, which can be used for on and off-street parking, and camera enforcement of both static parking and moving traffic offences.
