Case Study: City of Oxford achieves $500K+ revenue boost and improved downtown access with IPS Group, Inc.

City of Oxford - Customer Case Study

The City of Oxford faced growing parking pressure from university growth and rising tourism that left downtown spaces occupied beyond legal limits and strained a three-person parking department. After a competitive RFP, the City of Oxford selected IPS Group, Inc. to deploy its solar-powered, single-space parking meters and web-based Data Management System to improve access, enforcement, and revenue.

IPS Group, Inc. installed wireless, credit-card-enabled single-space meters with a management system that preserved the historic streetscape while minimizing disruption. Within eight months the meters generated over $500,000 in additional revenue (after previously losing about $20,000 per month), achieved 99.8% uptime, simplified enforcement to one or two officers, and increased turnover and downtown business access — delivering measurable fiscal and operational benefits for the City of Oxford.
