Amano, the leading provider of off-street parking automation in the U.S., has announced a partnership with Metric, the UK’s leading on-street, multi-space parking meter provider.

Under the new agreement, Amano is now Metric’s exclusive sales and distribution channel for North, South and Central America.

This alliance offers a combined solution designed to let parking operators manage their on- and off-street parking from a single location, and have the entire solution supported by the largest and most geographically diverse service organization in the industry, the companies said.

“Our exclusive partnership with Metric Parking enables us to offer our customers a flexible, multi-space meter solution that seamlessly integrates with our iParcProfessional Revenue System,” said Joe Survance, Senior VP of Marketing for Amano McGann. “This solution benefits parking patrons and operators alike, in both private and municipal markets.”

“For us, it’s a perfect partnership,” said Peter Aylward, Managing Director of Metric Group. “We wanted to replicate the success we’ve enjoyed throughout Europe in the U.S. market, and Amano is the ideal partner to help us achieve that goal.” Its wide geographic reach, in addition to its leadership position in multiple vertical markets across the nation, will give Metric the leverage and product visibility we need.”
