Company Profile
Walker Parking Consultants
Company Overview
Parking used to be a straightforward consideration. Now, it requires a specialist. When one considers the cost, time and knowledge necessary to ensure success, working with a single resource for a totally integrated parking solution is the only practical option.
With our comprehensive knowledge of the parking industry and over 50 years of experience, we are confident to call ourselves the leading parking consulting company in the nation. To us, it’s not just about concrete and steel. We have constant access to our internal experts with respect to operations, management, security, parking equipment, traffic flow, maintenance, restoration, and more. Our extensive knowledge base provides us with a better understanding of the needs and requirements of our clients. Parking is not just a design exercise; it is our passion and chief concern. Our goal is to apply this passion towards providing each and every client with the most user-friendly, cost-effective parking solutions.
As testimony to our expertise, five members of our staff authored a textbook entitled PARKING STRUCTURES: Planning, Design, Construction, Maintenance and Repair. Now in its third edition, many industry experts consider this book the single best source of information on parking facilities.
At Walker Parking Consultants, we are in the business of identifying problems and recommending solutions for all parking issues. Our full range of consulting services runs the gamut from initial feasibility studies through final design. A staff of more than 225 professionals, many with international experience, enables us to begin adding value immediately. Local codes and customs and the knowledge of locally manufactured products are not “learning curve” issues for us.
Walker currently uses a host of technologies to help aid in the area of project delivery among its clients and partners. These technologies include Web-based project communication software for the development and design of projects all the way through construction. Communication tools such as these allow the entire project team to work better, collaborate, and help each other meet schedules by staying up to date and resolving issues quickly when the need arises.
Walker Parking Consultants’ history with sustainable design is rooted in years of design experience, providing structures that require less maintenance and are more durable, ultimately using less future material and resources. Staff members are LEED certified.
Walker Parking Consultants is the only Parking Consultant in Engineering News Record’s Top Design Firms (we ranked 240 out of 500) and Building Design and Construction’s Giants 300 (we ranked 15 out of 50 in the Engineer/Architects category).
