With every car manufacturer seemingly committed to electrification, electric vehicle (EV) production is expected to accelerate in the next few years, with a significant market share realized by 2030.
Recharging infrastructure is a significant issue in the acceptance of EVs, and pressure is mounting – in some cases via legislation, to add EV charging to parking facilities in order to support and encourage EV sales.
To provide some insight into the topic, NPA’s Parking Consultant’s Council recently published a whitepaper on electric vehicle charging stations.
This session provides an overview of the whitepaper and a discussion on the challenges and opportunities that EV charging stations can provide for parking operators, facility design and construction, as well as day-to-day operations.

Request for Proposals – RFPs – are the lifeblood of any parking operation’s business development team, offering new business, new opportunities, and new revenue. But what are the clients really looking for, and is there a particular way to respond to an RFP to increase the chance of a “win”? Hint: it isn’t always about price.
In this session, learn how to critically analyze an RFP and formulate a winning submission. Led by an expert in RFP and procurement, you will view an RFP from the perspectives of both the operator and the consultant. The session will examine an RFP section by section, reviewing and analyzing real responses, including the good, the bad, and the ugly.
