# Parq > Parq is fleet maintenance, readiness and VIN lifecycle software that keeps a single source of truth for every VIN from intake to release. Location to lot, row and stall, condition photos, SLA timers and sign-offs write to that record, and readiness gates block a unit from advancing until every item is proven. Built by ParkMyFleet and used across its US Mobility Hub network; it also runs on customers' own yards. Pricing is per asset per month with unlimited users: $5 IMS, $10 IMS+TMS, $10 IMS+RMS, $14 Full Suite, billed annually. Parq is operated by ParkMyFleet (8 The Green, STE A, Dover, DE 19901 · 1-833-801-5101 · info@parkmyfleet.com). It works with a customer's existing yards, vendors, and shops; ParkMyFleet facilities are not required. Key definitions Parq maintains: a **readiness gate** is a rule-based checkpoint a vehicle must clear before advancing, verifying every SLA item including target state of charge; **dwell time** is how long a unit sits in one phase; **cost-per-vehicle-per-day** is the unit economic that consolidation is meant to improve. ## Product - [Home: outcomes, three modules, pricing, FAQ](https://parq.ai/): what Parq is, measured outcomes, the six-gate workflow, pricing summary, and a ten-question FAQ. - [Product: Inventory, Transport, and Rental on a single source of truth](https://parq.ai/product/): Inventory Management (IMS), Transportation (TMS), Rental (RMS) and Customer Success modules; readiness gates and SLA timers; photo condition reports; multi-leg manifests; integrations with AutoIMS, Salesforce, PAVE, Go Eve, Samsara and Geotab; REST API and webhooks; SSO (SAML, Okta, Entra), RBAC and audit logging. - [Pricing: per asset, unlimited users](https://parq.ai/pricing/): $5 IMS, $10 IMS+TMS, $10 IMS+RMS, $14 Full Suite, per asset per month, billed annually. Unlimited users on every plan; carriers and clients access at no charge. Pilots start at 100 assets; volume pricing above 2,500. Module comparison table and pricing FAQ. - [Integrations & API](https://parq.ai/integrations/): TMS, FMIS, telematics, ERP connectors, REST API, webhooks, SSO and RBAC. - [Customers and partners](https://parq.ai/customers/): named customers and ecosystem partners including Uber, PepsiCo, Greenlane, CALSTART, TruckPark, FuelMe, FinPark, SYCN Auto Logistics, Autonomy Institute, FiberLight, Great Plains Industrial Park, Solar Earth Technologies, Charge Across America and Epicenter Landcorp, with outcome case studies.

Phone 1-833-801-5101. - [Fleet operations, EV & remarketing glossary](https://parq.ai/glossary/): 35 defined terms across fleet operations, EV infrastructure, transport, remarketing, and sustainability. - [About, leadership and editorial policy](https://parq.ai/about/): who writes here, sourcing standards, corrections policy, citation and reuse terms. ## Solutions - the four problems operators bring to Parq - [What Parq is bought to fix](https://parq.ai/solutions/): index of the four problem areas, written for fleet ops directors at rental and mobility companies, auto logistics and remarketing operators, last-mile fleet managers, and AV/robotaxi operations teams. - [Find any unit in any yard](https://parq.ai/solutions/locate-every-vehicle/): position resolves to lot, row and stall on the VIN record, with custody signed at every handoff and a dwell clock per phase. A GPS coordinate inside one lot is a search area, not a location. - [Cost per vehicle per day finance can defend](https://parq.ai/solutions/cost-per-vehicle-per-day/): cost-per-vehicle-per-day is dwell multiplied by phase cost; Parq computes it from recorded phase events rather than estimating at month end. Depreciation, insurance and financing stay in the customer's GL. - [Prove every SLA item](https://parq.ai/solutions/sla-proof-and-audit/): readiness gates verify each SLA item - inspection, condition report, target state of charge - and block release until proven, so evidence is a byproduct of the work rather than a retroactive reconstruction. - [Consolidate vendors onto one record](https://parq.ai/solutions/consolidate-vendors/): vendor sprawl is a reconciliation problem before a procurement problem. Unlimited users at no per-seat cost means carriers, shops, clients and auction partners write to the single source of truth. ParkMyFleet facilities are optional. ## How-to answers - method pages, no product required - [How to find a vehicle in a large yard](https://parq.ai/answers/how-to-find-a-vehicle-in-a-yard/): five steps - address every stall, assign at intake, sign custody at handoff, put phase on the unit, audit by exception daily. - [How to calculate cost per vehicle per day](https://parq.ai/answers/how-to-calculate-cost-per-vehicle-per-day/): what belongs in the numerator, why custody days is the correct denominator, per-VIN attribution, phase breakdown, and the four errors that make the figure indefensible. - [How to prove SLA compliance on a vehicle program](https://parq.ai/answers/how-to-prove-sla-compliance/): write each item binary, attach evidence to the VIN, timestamp and attribute, make the item blocking, keep the exception trail. - [How to consolidate fleet vendors without disrupting operations](https://parq.ai/answers/how-to-consolidate-fleet-vendors/): consolidate the record first and the supply base second; inventory who touches the unit, map where each records, choose the record, make participation a renewal condition, then measure before renegotiating. ## Comparisons - [Parq vs. a TMS](https://parq.ai/compare/parq-vs-tms/): a TMS is the plan of record for movement; Parq is the record of physical truth while a vehicle is stationary. They sync; neither replaces the other. - [Parq vs. telematics](https://parq.ai/compare/parq-vs-telematics/): telematics is vehicle-generated drive data; Parq is the stationary record - lot, row and stall, open gate, dwell days, condition. Fleet cost accrues while parked. - [Readiness gates vs. checklists](https://parq.ai/compare/readiness-gates-vs-checklists/): a checklist describes a process, a readiness gate enforces it by blocking the vehicle until every SLA item is proven on the record. ## Driving Mobility podcast - written companions (20 articles, all first-party, all with named guests) - [Transportation Fraud is Worse Than Ever and the Industry Has to Stop Playing Defense](https://parq.ai/insights/transportation-fraud/): May 26, 2026 · Fleet Operations.
