At UbiCollaborate 2023, the stage was set for insightful discussion that resonates with the overarching theme: “The Future of Parking; Technology, Innovation, and EV.” Within this vibrant context, a standout case study emerged, focusing on Marvel Stadium.
Led by visionaries Hamish, Rina, Jesse, and their adept team, the session delved into the intricate process of transforming Marvel Stadium’s parking reservation system. The overarching narrative encapsulated the stadium’s journey from archaic inefficiencies to a state-of-the-art, user-centric paradigm.
The old system: What changes were required?
The conversation initially outlined the inadequacies of the previous parking system, emphasising its inability to meet the diverse and intricate needs of the stadium. This set the stage for a collaborative design process, where the team meticulously crafted a three-step solution to address these shortcomings.
Central to the discussion was the orchestration of managing diverse stakeholders—AFL teams, umpires, and event attendees. The emphasis on understanding and integrating various user perspectives became the catalyst for a series of iterative design approaches, resulting in a system finely tuned to the stadium’s unique requirements.

An essential evolution underscored throughout the session was the shift from manual processes to empowering clubs with autonomy in managing ticket allocations. This transformation not only streamlined operations but also fostered accountability within the clubs, a significant stride forward in operational efficiency.
Moreover, the system’s adept handling of event tickets, minimising the booking process while providing insightful analytics, stood out as a testament to user-centric design. Its ability to track and analyse ticket utilisation provided invaluable insights into allocation patterns.
