into more detail regarding our current airport operations and our ability to meet and exceed all the
requirements for Eagle County Regional Airport (EGE).
Creative Solutions: In addition to submitting a proposal as requested, o ur executives have familiarized
themselves with the Eagle County Regional Airport, visited and toured the facilities, and have crafted a
unique solution to increase revenue, accountability and customer service while reducing on -site staffing
using reliable technology. In addition, we have provided a couple other cost savings initiatives that, upon
installation of the new PARC’s system will allow us to ensure proper controls without increasing labor. We
also offer to help fund and finance the selection, installation, and implementation of a new PARCS system
and technology. Using our national purchasing power and experience with multiple PARC’s providers, we
stand ready to assist the Airport in identifying and purchasing the best system for your operation.
In addition to providing operation of the system as you have requested, we have outlined in this proposal
our methods and concepts of a more efficient operation, improving traffic flow and customer experience.
We are proposing a full-time Manager and Assistant Manager who will be free to handle any issues that
may arise but will focus on accountability, efficiency, cleanliness and customer/client service. In addition,
the on-site management and staff, we intend on using our Customer Care Center (CCC – customer call
center) to provide 24/7/365 coverage of the operation. Any patron may reach either our management or
the Customer Care Center by simply pushing a button on any of the entr y, exit and/or POFs locations to
receive immediate assistance with any issues they may have. The system we are proposing allows us the

2. QUALIFICATIONS
Briefly explain your company’s qualifications to provide the services requested, e.g. years in business,
staffing, vehicles to be utilized and experience.
A. Years in Business
1. Airport Parking Facilities Operations: 13 years
2. Other Parking Facilities Operations: 41 years
B. Staffing
LAZ Parking is prepared to meet the staffing requirements as required in the scope of services. Below is
our base line schedule for all positions:
LAZ Parking takes a detailed approach to scheduling to make certain all parking positions are staffed and
will meet all necessary staffing obligations. We would augment staffing with 24 hours per day Customer
Call Center (CCC) support. The CCC will be able to answer any questions, vend all gates and push rates
when necessary. While on site, the Manager and Assistant Manager will have calls routed directly to them
so they can be out and about the operation as necessary.
C. Vehicles to be Utilized
LAZ Parking would recommend a pickup truck for the operation. This type of vehicle provides the most
flexible option so that LAZ can conduct the daily responsibilities associate with the parking operations,
including License Plate Inventory checks, issuing parking tickets for unpaid parking, along with the ability
to move parking supplies around the operation and assist with snow removal operations if the airport feels
necessary or in an emergency snow situation.

1. Brief history of the inception and growth of LAZ PARKING
LAZ PARKING OVERVIEW
The roots of LAZ Parking are founded on childhood friendships that were formed in the mid -1970s when
Alan Lazowski, Jeff Karp and Michael Harth became best friends in a small town near Hartford, CT. Fast
forward to 1981 in his senior year of college when Michael decided to start a valet parking business in San
Diego, CA. He shared the idea with his two best friends who took hold of this opportunity and started their
own valet businesses in Hartford and Boston, MA.
Michael began by serving three beach-side restaurants, Alan with a single location at a restaurant in
downtown Hartford and Jeff with a nightclub and surface parking lot in downtown Boston.
Two years later, Jeff and Al merged
their Hartford and Boston-based
companies to form LAZ Parking.
Meanwhile Michael continued to
operate independently on the West
Coast under the brand of Sunset
Parking. Over the years, the three
friends consulted with each other
and shared their many experiences
and philosophies while growing their
companies side by side into leaders
in their respective markets.
By 2006, LAZ Parking had become a
significant regional player in the Midwest when they secured one of the largest parking contracts in the
nation
– the City of Chicago’s Millennium Park Garages. This caught the eye of Indigo [formerly VINCI Park], one
of the world’s largest parking firms that wanted to invest in a U.S.-based parking company.
In 2007, Indigo [formerly VINCI Park] acquired a 50% interest in LAZ, which then formally acquired Sunset
and the three friends merged their companies and cultures to form the LAZ Parking of today. The
combination of lifelong friendship and a people-focused philosophy has been the fuel that has allowed the
company to become a dominant leader in the parking industry.
In 2021, LAZ Parking announced an investment from Argo Infrastructure Partners, a leading infrastructure
investor based in New York with a focus in long -term investments, targeting higher quality infrastructure
assets and businesses, including EV and sustainability initiatives. This new partnership will strengthen our
existing capabilities, contribute and sustain its strong relationships with employees and customers.

Through the combination of strategic acquisitions of Classified Parking, Apex Parking, Ultimate Parking,
Interpark’s operations in the Mid-Atlantic region, AlphaPark VPS, Professional Parking and Serco, LAZ has
grown into the largest privately held parking company in America.
Today LAZ operates over 1.2 million parking spaces in over 3,000 t housand locations and 400+ cities
across the country, including many of the original locations we started back in 1981.
Over four decades later, our founders and their original values continue to guide the LAZ Parking of today.
With a laser-focused mission to “Create Opportunities for Our Employees and Value for Our Clients” we
are passionately committed to living up to “The LAZ Way."

4. FAMILIARITY WITH EAGLE COUNTY
Provide a narrative describing familiarity with Eagle County.
LAZ Parking is extremely familiar with the operations at Eagle County Regional Airport. As the operator
at Aspen/Pitkin County Airport, we operate in the same regional environment similar to EGE. Our
operations at ASE are very similar in nature to EGE. Our Aspen operation includes self-park operations,
commercial vehicle management along with administering and controlling the flow of TNC operators.
The LAZ Parking manager at EGE will report directly to Kevin Sommers, our Parking Manager at ASE. We
believe this to be the best organizational structure to ensure local knowledge and understanding of the
operation at EGE. This structure will ensure our onsite manager at EGE will have immediate access to the
most current and up to date operational aspects based on our 5+ years of experience at ASE. LAZ
Parking’s experience at ASE will be invaluable to the parking operation at EGE. Especially as it relates to
peak periods associated with the local ski season, assisting the airport in developing a new parking layout,
installing new parks equipment, working with and negotiating with local TNC and commercial vehicle
operators, along with fully understanding the local snow/weather aspects of the operation.
Our manager at ASE has a working relationship with not only Aspen Airport but all the local rideshare and
commercial vehicle companies; a majority of which also operate at EGE. From the initial transition at ASE,
LAZ Parking took a proactive approach to the parking operation . It started with installing new PARCS
equipment to ensure proper financial controls and increased revenue. In addition, LAZ Parking has added
the LAZgo reservation system which allows airport customers to purchase their parking prior to leaving
for the airport. LAZ Parking has also connected the PARCS equipment to the airport's website so that
parking customers can check lot/space availability prior to leaving for their trip to the airport, again
allowing for a more expediated parking experience. In addition to the enhancements listed above LAZ
Parking took on the project at ASE to negotiate new operating rates and procedures for all the TNC and
commercial vehicles at ASE by installing automated tracking of all TNC and commercial traffic. LAZ
Parking is prepared to work alongside the administration at Eagle County Airport to bring these same
enhancements to EGE.

6. LEGAL ISSUES
Are there any lawsuits, federal, state, or local tax liens, or any potential claims or liabilities against you, your
company or the officers of the company now or within the last three years? If so, please explain.
General Litigation
LAZ Karp Associates, LLC is the parent company of all the state and regional LAZ Parking entities
throughout the United States including LAZ Parking Midwest, LLC. LAZ Parking operates over 3,555
locations in 465 cities in 39 states throughout the US and employs approximately 13,000 people. As a
result of the operations and the number of employees, it is inevitable that LAZ is often named in litigation
regarding personal injury matters, property damage claims, and employment issues. LAZ Parking
maintains insurance which covers the vast majority of these cases and works with a 3rd party claims
adjustor, which hires investigators and attorneys, who together determine liability and responsible parties.
During the last five years and beyond, LAZ Parking has not been terminated by any client based upon a
default of failure to perform pursuant to the terms of its contract.

7. General Approach to Project
Provide a narrative or other form to explain how you intend to approach the overall project.
Overview
General Approach/Operational Plan
Our operational plan includes replacement of all current PARCs equipment with FLASH Parking PARCS
equipment including FLASH Vision, Flash Garage Count System, and Ground Transportation Management
System. The system includes new units and gates creating dual entrances lanes and exit lanes for each
lot to each facility, cameras at each entrance and exit as well as a total count system.
This system allows us to transition the operation to a much more secure, fully automated system with
multiple payment methods. It also provides for all operations to tie together and be serviced remotely
through our onsite staff and customer call center where we can address any customer issues, push parking
rates, and vend all gates remotely. It gives unparalleled accountability and feeds all information into a
dynamic, real time reports program for LPR, revenue , and ticket data. It also feeds a very robust BI/Data
Analytics platform that can be augmented to include airline, weather, rental car, concessions , and other
data to provide a great resource for predictive and pro-active marketing efforts.
The entire operation will be managed by a LAZ Airport trained manager and assistant manager that will
have the full support of the LAZ Airport team as well as the local regional LAZ Team. We also anticipate
having staff that will handle terminal curbside monitoring, ground transportation, and TNC management.
We have several ideas on making the operation more consolidated, efficient and more customer friendly
that we would present to the Airport upon selection and work closely with the Airport to implement those
concepts approved by the Airport.
LAZ Parking also has significant financial resources we are willing to bring to bear given agreement on
mutually beneficial terms with the Airport and County. We are willing to provide the capital to procure
PARCs and infrastructure needs, and through our sister company, LPRI, can provide for projects as large
as construction of a parking structure for the Airport or consolidated rental car facility and ready return
facility.
We have included as Attachment II additional information regarding standard operating procedures in the
areas of Hiring & Training, Financial Controls, Auditing & Reporting as well as Record Keeping. A
customized SOP manual will be created for the EGE operation once contract terms and obligations are
determined.
Approach to Guest Experience
LAZ strives to make sure every Guest has a positive parking experience. The parking facility is the traveler’s
first and last chance impression of the Airport during their travels. Knowing this, we believe that properly
DocuSign Envelope ID: BEEFE468-394B-4168-A4F7-8BE3BBF64A35
Parking and Ground Transportation Management Services
Request for Qualifications | Eagle County Regional Airport | 6. Legal Issues 34
working revenue control equipment, clean and safe facilities, and staff availability to respond to and solve
issues are the key components to this experience.
We provide further details on our maintenance in Section 7.e below on how we plan to achieve this for
EGE. All revenue control equipment will fail from time to
time, what is critical for the Guest is how the operator
responds to these failures. LAZ provides manufacturer
training on all installed revenue control equipment. The
system we have proposed is plug & play based to
minimize any down time. Our on-site staff is trained to
provide immediate service on all equipment, and we also
regularly schedule the manufacturer to visit the site and
provide routine preventative maintenance on the devices
within the PARCs system. This provides a more reliable
system and ensures ease of use for all patrons visiting
the parking. facility.
In addition to the on-site staff, all intercom calls are pushed to a manager on duty located on-site or a call
center that is staffed 24/7/365. Both the onsite personnel and call center can vend gates, push rates,
answer any questions and address any issues that may
arise. This allows the customer to have an immediate
response to a question and a faster response time to any
issues.
In some parts of the operation, we would have customer
appreciation initiatives. These are typically easier to
accomplish in a valet operation. Some ways to improve
the Guest experience are by providing complimentary
water when Guests are departing. However, we do not
limit the positive experience to just those parts of the
operation we also offer all the following to every guest:
• Free Vehicle location
• Complimentary Jump starts
• Assistance with Lost
Keys/Lock Outs
• Towing Assistance
• Complimentary snow brushes
• Frequent Parking Program
• Customer loyalty points usable for Guest’s
favorite travel (Airlines, hotel and Amex miles)
• Ability to enroll in LAZGo Reservations
• BI & Data analytics to be proactive and
predetermined maintenance approach (predictive
& proactive)

Approach to Transition from Prior Operator
LAZ Parking stands ready to serve Eagle County Regional Airport upon contract award. We have a proven track record
for similar projects and look forward to working as your partner.
PROJECTED START DATE
LAZ Parking will begin working on the transition plan the day that the contract award is announced. The
implementation goal is to provide a seamless transition from a real and perceived standpoint.
ANTICIPATED TRANSITION SCHEDULE
Our main objective for the transition period is to be seamless and without notice to the customers utilizing the Airport
parking facilities. We accomplish this through a detailed transition plan that has LAZ staff members assigned to very
specific tasks and duties. We anticipate a transition occurring in 60 days. That means there is a lot to accomplish in
a short period of time. We are confident and will promise the Airport a smooth transition. We have provided a sample
transition schedule below. We will create a customized transition program once actual start dates are determined.
We also hold weekly transition meetings with the Airport and update tasks as they are completed. Our weekly
meetings up to the actual transition date will further show the Airport our commitment and progress. We will also
work closely with the Airport on every step of the transition process to predetermine and predict any issues.
Operation & Equipment Transition
We stand ready to assume Operation on the date determined by the Airport and County. We will prepare a customized
transition plan including the steps we will take to ensure that the staffing requirements are met on day one. We also
will have an experienced and capable transition team on site to oversee the installation of a new PARC’s system. We
approach the replacement of the PARC’s system in a methodical process. We have already begun the planning and
gathering prices to speed up the process. We will add additional staff during this time to ensure that all the tickets
from the previous system are processed.

a) Procuring, installing, and supporting new ticket dispensers, gate arms, wayfinding and signage , etc.
with impactful, clear and consistent branding.
PARC’s Experience With over 3,500 parking facilities currently under management in the U.S., LAZ is
extremely proficient and familiar with the procurement, installation, and integration of revenue control
equipment for parking operations. In the past 18 months, LAZ has assisted with the purchase,
implementation, and transition of 9 Airport PARCs systems. We have longstanding relationships and
national purchasing discounts with the most respected parking equipment vendors in the industry,
including Amano-McGann, FLASH, Parkonect, Scheidt & Bachman, Designa, Federal APD, SkiData, CVPS,
Digital Payment Technologies, Cale, CVPS, Zippark, Zeag, CTR, WPS, T2, and DataPark. LAZ has an
expertise in PARCS installations and transitions, as we have completed hundreds throughout the country.
LAZ Parking has decades of experience designing, installing, and maintaining Parking Access Revenue
Control System (PARCS) equipment. We work closely with equipment vendors and strategic PARCs
partners to help design hardware, software, and functionality specific to the Airport Environ. As a leader
in providing cutting edge PARCS equipment to its clients, LAZ has been purchasing and installing
equipment for decades. In the past 6 years alone, LAZ Parking has overseen the purchasing and
installation of new PARCS equipment at many of our airports. Including installing FLASH equipment at
MHT, MOT, GTR, ASE, MLI, SBY, and PVD, along with TIBA equipment at AVL, GSP, TUL, and Scheidt and
Bachman at OAK.
Our onsite management staff will have knowledge of the operation and management of sophisticated,
custom, revenue control systems, with specific hands-on knowledge of PARCS systems and equipment.
They receive continued training on the quickly developing technology. Our Airport Services personnel have
worked many years in the Airport parking industry and have gained experience working with different
PARCS systems, by firsthand fieldwork and by ongoing training they have received to stay abreast of
changes in technology.
Corporate PARCS and Technology Department: LAZ Parking maintains a Corporate PARCS, and
Technologies department headed by Robert DeBurro, Managing Partner, and Steve Gresh, Vice President.
Robert and Steve leverage their many years of revenue and parking management to guide the critical
operations of LAZ Parking locations nationwide. Their strong operations and PARCS hardware
background enable them to organize and standardize the thousands of physical operations that LAZ has
across the country, creating uniform operating procedures and PARCS techno logy choices. Both work
closely with the LAZ IT and Innovations teams to ensure that LAZ will continue as the leader in the parking
experience of the future.
LAZ has a technology committee that consults on operational plans and then we utilize the most modern
technologies to provide the best solutions to the operation. Robert DeBurro, Steve Gresh, and Patrick Ryan
are leaders of our technology committee on this effort. We work with the local team to determine the need,
design the proper technology solutio n, and provide recommendations of additional features or products
DocuSign Envelope ID: BEEFE468-394B-4168-A4F7-8BE3BBF64A35
Parking and Ground Transportation Management Services
Request for Qualifications | Eagle County Regional Airport | 6. Legal Issues 37
that could be added to the operation to improve the customer experience and a best-in-class operation.
We can assist with preparing an RFP, review, interview, and negotiate best pricing, verify the proper
implementation plan is presented, and then turn it over to the local teams for the management of the
process. Or, if included in our agreement, LAZ can just handle the entire process of purchase and
installation. Depending on the solution and provider, that will influence the response to the maintenance
strategy.
PARC’s Procurement LAZ Parking has worked with many of our clients over the years to procure different
PARC’s systems. We would work with EGE to develop a system that meets all your current and future
needs. With our volume purchasing power, LAZ receives significant discounts on all major PARC’s
systems. Our recommendation will have a proven track record at Airports and your style of operation. We
also have arrangement with firms to provide equipment under CAPEX or HaaS models. LAZ is willing to
provide the funds to purchase the system under mutually acceptable terms.
PARC’s Maintenance LAZ Parking is very aware that the revenue generated from Airport parking
operations is generally in the leading source of nonaeronautical revenue for most airports. In order to
protect the Airport’s revenue, the PARC’s system must operate correctly. LAZ employees are trained on
the PARC’s system so that they can provide Level 1 maintenance on all s ystems. This includes many of
the items listed below:
⚫ Ticket/receipt replacement
⚫ Clearing of Jams in the equipment
⚫ Removal/Swapping of parts as directed by the manufacturer
⚫ Replacement of Gate arms
⚫ Exterior cleaning of cabinets
⚫ Monthly inspections of internal components for visible wear/failure points
⚫ Bring a manufacturer representative to provide training specific to the system installed
LAZ will maintain a record of regularly scheduled preventive maintenance service performed and submit
a copy of preventative maintenance reports to the Airport following completion.
Equipment Replacement
We have taken the liberty of gathering quotes for replacement of the PARCs system. We are happy to
share those upon request. We requested two quotes:
1) Replacement of PARCs under a HaaS model
2) Replacement of PARCs under a SaaS model
LAZ parking is willing to provide the necessary funds for the new system under terms to be negotiated.
Automated Facility Operation
The fully automated method we are suggesting would only be pursued with the full approval, support, and
direction of the Airport prior to incorporating any changes. We believe it is the future of Airport parking.
DocuSign Envelope ID: BEEFE468-394B-4168-A4F7-8BE3BBF64A35
Parking and Ground Transportation Management Services
Request for Qualifications | Eagle County Regional Airport | 6. Legal Issues 38
This method of operation would provide significant annual savings in operating expenses. It provides for
a more efficient and accountable operation using improved PARCs technologies. This method eliminates
all cashiers and nightly LPI from the operation. We are proposing a full-time Manager and an Assistant
Manager who will be free to handle any issues that may arise but focus on accountability, efficiency,
cleanliness, and customer and client service. They would be scheduled onsite opposite each other and
during the peak traffic periods. While on shift, any issues can be handled using their operational cell phone.
We intend on using our national Customer Care Center (CCC – remote call center) to provide 24/7/365
coverage of the operation when the Manager or Assistant Manager are not onsite or available to respond
to calls. Any patron may reach either our management or the Customer Care Center by simply pushing a
button on any one of the entries, exits and/or POFs locations to receive immediate assistance with any
issues they may have. The system we are proposing allows us to push rates, remote vend the equipment
and provide information and service as necessary. The system is also the latest technology and will
provide better accountability. Also, monthly card patrons, corporate reserved, airport management and
personnel as well as anyone else management approves can enter or exit the lot by having us register their
license plate into the system, having an access card or a QR code on their mobile device. It provides for a
simple validation process, reservations, and pre-payment options through a variety of payment options.
For regular transient customers, it is virtually the same as paying for your gas at a gas station without ever
having to leave your vehicle. The system’s proposed LPR component will always allow for real-time LPI
available online. Soon, it will also have the ability to allow the operation to go ticketless, saving on
operational supply expenses.
b) Creating a frequent parker program
Customer Loyalty Program – Thanks Again
Thanks Again is a loyalty program which provides the opportunity to earn points that can be
redeemed for not only parking but at other concessions in the airport. LAZ Parking proposes
a Parking Loyalty Program for EGE Airport parkers that creates long-term, above the line
customer involvement and loyalty. Thanks Again currently is active in over 170 airports and
customers who enroll can earn miles/points almost anywhere throughout their travels. LAZ
has experience in airport marketing for parking facilities, and we are confident that a differentiated, unique loyalty
program will have a significant impact on raising awareness and changing behaviors around EGE parking and the
Airport in general. Having an engaging loyalty program will increase web traffic and ultimately generate additional
parking revenues. An integrated loyalty program will set the tone and increase awareness of the benefits of parking
at EGE Airport. Through Thanks Again we can provide a white label (ex. EGE Rewards) platform in which we receive
all customer data so we can market to and upsell to our Loyalty Members. We can tie the Thanks Again customer
data and tendencies into our BI/Analytics to give a more comprehensive database to engage customers. We can
send push notifications and spot deals/incentives to further market the parking and other airport concessions.
Thanks Again is the leading loyalty, customer analytics and engagement solution for airports and travel retailers.
Their technology allows the opportunity to better engage customers, increase customer lifetime value, and improve
the day of travel experience. The LAZ-Thanks Again partnership is a comprehensive parking solution that delivers a
DocuSign Envelope ID: BEEFE468-394B-4168-A4F7-8BE3BBF64A35
Parking and Ground Transportation Management Services
Request for Qualifications | Eagle County Regional Airport | 6. Legal Issues 39
loyalty ecosystem that leverages multiple partnerships and technologies to develop an end -to-end loyalty, analytics,
and customer engagement tool. The convergence of these partnerships, products and services into one powerful
parking solution delivers tremendous value that can be seamlessly expanded from parking to all airport concessions
and services; and to targeted airport retail, dining and services throughout the region under a singular airport brand.
c) Providing corporate reserved spaces, valet services, and parking guidance system to guide
customers to open parking spaces
Corporate Reserved Spaces
LAZ Parking currently provides nested areas or entirely separate lots at several of our 22 current airport
operations. Technology advancements have made managing these facilities simple for the operator but
more importantly seamless for the users. With the technology we are proposing, corporate reserve,
monthly, airport management and anyone else the Airport deems acceptable can quickly and easily
register and use corporate reserved parking. Potential customers can link online to a site that allows them
to enter their payment information safely and securely. They then can access the lot through a QR code
on their mobile, Bluetooth technology when in proximity of the readers or even the traditional way of using
an issued card or sticker. We recommend anti-passback be initiated to avoid anyone taking advantage of
the process. Rates can be adjusted depending upon who is signing up for the convenience of the corporate
reserved/monthly parking facility.
Valet Service (Optional)
LAZ Parking operates Valet services at several Airport locations and our company was founded on valet
operations, so no other company has the first in class valet pedigree equal to ours. We currently operate
the valet operation at Nashville Airport (BNA). This is the largest valet operation at any Airport in the US.
We park approximately 1,200 valet vehicles per day.
Valet Parking can be a significant service offering especially for high-end clientele. It also creates capacity
within existing lots creating additional revenue opportunities while providing unmatched customer service.
The team at LAZ has developed, instituted and operated valet programs and several airports throu ghout
that United States. With all the upcoming changes we recommend that the Airport consider the Valet
operation. We have prepared an initial budget for the operation for your review.

Parking and Ground Transportation Management Services
Request for Qualifications | Eagle County Regional Airport | 6. Legal Issues 40
Valet parking could provide several positive benefits including:
1. Provide a high-level parking option with curbside pick-up and drop-off service.
2. Free up parking spaces in both the short and long-term lots.
3. Provide additional revenue for the parking operation.
4. Ease travelers’ burden during periods of high traffic and Airport growth
We would be happy to discuss the potential for this service at Eagle County Regional Airport.
Parking Guidance Systems
LAZ Parking has extensive experience managing facilities with both with space count systems and parking
space locator systems. We have worked with several companies that have the technology to create space
guidance systems through either embedded or pole-based sensor systems. These systems are mostly
Wi-Fi driven so infrastructure and cost are reduced. The sensors used can be on ground discs or poll-
based units. We have relationships with many of these firms and receive discount pricing due to our
national volume purchasing. We would be happy to sit down and work through the pros and cons of each
system and work with the Airport to determine the best solution.

Power Sweeping/Scrubbing
This work will be performed on the third shift and/or when the least number of vehicles are present.
Power sweeping and scrubbing will be performed as needed or contractually required.
Cleaning, Housekeeping and Routine Maintenance
LAZ parking has our own maintenance team based in Colorado. This team allows us to coordinate
and schedule work needed at optimal times for our clients and guests. This advantage also comes
with the best in industry pricing. As a service to our clients, we always bid out a project to ensure
that our maintenance team is offering the best pricing. If we are beat in a bid, our team will match
that pricing, and then ensure that we offer the best service and work to complete the task.

Business Intelligence and Analytics
Many operations today short-change their performance management activities due to the time wasted on
manual tasks such as data collecting, validating and correcting data rather than spending adequate time
on more important tasks of analysis. These often rely on systems ranging from spreadsheets to ERP
solutions that are disconnected, outdated, static, insecure, completely dependent on IT, and lacking the
performance and data reliability that are essential for today’s analytics.

art technology that will allow card access, license plate recognition at entry and exit as well as superior
accountability.
The equipment is available under a HaaS model of monthly payment by the Airport or outright
purchase. Under the HaaS model the Airport would pay monthly for the equipment and all maintenance,
software and hardware upgrades are included in the set monthly price. Under a CAPEX or outright
purchase, LAZ parking is willing to provide the necessary funds for the new system under terms to be
negotiated.

i) Maintaining comprehensive management of cyber risk associated with the parking product for our
guests and EGE business operations
LAZ Parking utilizes two compliance standards to make up the cyber security program to mitigate cyber
security risk. The first being PCI DSS Level 1 version 3.2.1, to meet this compliance standard LAZ Parking
is audited and signed off on by a third-party Qualified Security Assessors (QSA) Security Metrics on an
annual basis. Attached is the PCI Compliance Statement document to provide an overview of that
program. The second compliance standard that is achieved is Service Organization Control (SOC) SSAE
18 Type 2 report. This standard is audited and signed off on by a third-party audit firm, CohnReznick LLC,
annually in addition to the PCI DSS engagement.
j) Curbside Security Compliance, Traffic Management, Customer Service
Curbside Security Compliance
LAZ Parking will work with the airport to build a curbside management program to ensure all patrons of
the airport enjoy a safe and efficient curbside experience. LAZ will institute a curbside management
program that improves the customer experience on the airport roadway, as well as do a complete review
of all signage and wayfinding to ensure that guests understand their parking options, as well as drop -off
and pick-up locations.
LAZ Parking will manage and monitor the ground transportation operations that include airport patron, taxi
cabs, commercial vehicles along with monitoring TNC vehicles. Additionally, LAZ Parking would
recommend the use of Airport Parking Ambassadors on the curb at peak arrival/departure times to ensure
that all guests have access to a helpful employee should an issue arise. This ambassa dor will ensure
guests are proficiently loading and unloading, as well as keeping the flow of traffic moving in a safe,
efficient manner.
The LAZ Parking team will include an advanced system to keep traffic flowing smoothly with attentive
airport ambassadors in order to ease travel for all users of the airport.
Services provided will include taxi dispatch and traffic flow, commercial vehicle management, ground
transportation management, overseeing the design and operations of a commercial AVI system along with
providing curbside luggage assistance.
Traffic Management
The importance of traffic management and wayfinding signs when approaching any airport and on the
front drive is imperative for guests, employees, and businesses. With proposed lot relocations at EGE to
better fit the needs of travelers, further discussions will be made to ensure proper flow of traffic to
minimize staff and help aid a congested front drive. In addition, the proposed ground transportation lot
relocation and updated TNC operation should assist vehicle flow, creating less confusion for those
receiving and providing ground transportation. The removal of the barriers currently surrounding the TNC
lot will also assist in pedestrian access and overall aesthetics.

LAZ will work diligently with EGE to observe peak travel times throughout the year to properly staff the
parking and ground transportation operation. Constant adjustments will be made over time to find the
proper balance regarding signage, lane usage, and lot access points.
Lot rates and fees will also be analyzed to determine their direct impact on front drive congestion. Up until
three years ago, ASE allowed parking on the front drive accompanied by very minimal costs for its short-
term parking lot causing confusion and congestion and creating daily capacity issues in the lot. We
assisted the airport with a plan to remove the parking spaces directly outside of the terminal to be replaced
by drive-thru lanes and a rate change in the short-term parking lot. After some growing pains, these
configurations remain, allowing for better traffic flow and more space in the short-term parking lot. This
revised traffic pattern ultimately increased parking revenue in the process as well. Public buy-in is
imperative with such changes at a smaller community airport such as EGE, and we will continue to listen
to airport stakeholders and the public to ensure all parties’ needs are being met. Throughout the process,
we want the Eagle County residents and businesses to see us as a part of the community, and ultimately
as a partner to increase their travel experience.
Customer service philosophy and approach.
Our customers are at the top of our Organizational Chart. Unlike any other parking company, LAZ Parking
believes in “Hire for Attitude, Train for Skill.” We hire people that are excited to come to work and that love
to interact with the public and then we train them to put customers first.
Every day, you will see this reflected in the way our employees treat customers with a smile, a greeting, a
polished uniform, and a commitment to go the extra mile. At LAZ Parking, our people are our most
important asset, and our culture is all about recognizing acts of value and excellence. Our employees are
passionate about parking and about our customers, and we are eager to serve you.
CUSTOMER SERVICE TRAINING
LAZ Parking understands that customer service is the most important aspect of the experience of our
operations. First and foremost, all our on-site personnel will be trained in compassionate and efficient
service. They will also be trained in service recovery and trained to be able to help with directions.
In addition to the training and support employees first get when being hired and screened to join the
company, the manager will hold regular monthly meetings in which concerns are addressed with staff and
issues that have arisen throughout the month and have been acted upon are brought up and addressed
for training purposes should they ever occur again in the future. This creates a forum and collaborative
working environment where staff are given the opportunity to offer suggestions on how to improve upon
service offerings and approaches.
Important and unique circumstances are then documented and incorporated into the on -site facility
manual for reference and repeat training efforts should a change in staff occur.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS
Each contact we have with any patrons or employees is one of those "moments
of truth" where impressions are formed, and we focus on this during training.
Topics of focus include:
⚫ SMILE The ultimate first impression. It shows that you are happy and
confident and makes other people smile. It can cheer them up, as smiling is
contagious.
⚫ SPEAK FIRST This shows the customer you care and are confident. It makes them believe in you,
that you will help them.
⚫ EYE CONTACT The highest form of human courtesy is listening. The best way to show people you
are paying attention to them and that they are important is to look them in the eye.
⚫ FRIENDLY CONVERSATION It cements the positive experience you have already built. Friendly
conversation is non-threatening, and you are making the initiative.
MONITORING OUR SERVICE
We will measure our service levels in a variety of ways to ensure satisfaction. The best two ways to
measure customer service are secret shoppers and customer surveys.
SECRET SHOPPERS
An integral part of our quality assurance program is the use of third -party “secret shoppers” to audit the
quality of our own staff’s customer service. The secret shopper verifies ticket and cash transactions and
evaluates the facility’s overall appearance, cleanliness, lighting, attendants’ appearance, attendants’
attitude, and helpfulness.
CUSTOMER SURVEYS
Our proposed customer survey program was developed using best practices
in the parking industry as well as other service industries. We recommend that
these surveys be distributed regularly to measure our performance and
provide suggested areas of improvement. We use Microsoft Forms so that
surveys are easily customized, given via iPad in the field, and give us
electronic results that can be linked to our BI tool.
Our customer survey program can be physical survey cards, digital, mobile, or
all the above. It was developed using best practices in the parking industry, as
well as other service industries.

FOLLOWUP
Follow up is a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) platform that tracks customers’ issues,
concerns, and communications. The benefit of the system is automated tracking of issues, as described
below.
We open a case and assign it to the appropriate manager. When the issue is resolved, the case is marked
complete, automatically logged, and the customer receives a Follow up message.
Follow up integrates with LAZ Business Intelligence to provide data visualizations of open cases, response
times and other KPIs to analyze and hold us accountable to our own exemplary standard of customer
service.
We can generate reports, transfer reports to management electronically, trigger automatic follow-ups,
collect statistical information, and track action taken.
The benefit to you is detailed reporting and ensuring consistent follow-through.
k) Ground Transportation and TNC compliance and enforcement rules and regulations
GENERAL GROUND TRANSPORTATION MANAGEMENT
With numerous airport locations managed by LAZ, we understand there are multiple ways to track and
manage ground transportation. We also understand that we must be forward thinking in our approach at
EGE to account for new technologies and opportunities regarding proper vehicle tracking and peer to peer
transportation apps.
At ASE, we have championed the approach of charging companies based on their usage. With the proper
technology and proper traffic flow management, we would be able to accurately charge companies based
solely on their usage which is fair and holds companies accountable across the spectrum. LAZ would
manage all tracking equipment to assure accurate billings. In addition, with the approval of local
authorities and commissions, LAZ would require all GT companies to complete a yearly application, as is
industry standard, allowing for clear communications regarding airport regulations, documented insurance
and liability requirements, fines, fleet lists, etc.
One of the many successful changes we have initiated at ASE has been the method of traffic management.
Mainly, the implementation of fees for dropping off guests in addition to picking up. This, paired with a
rate change, has allowed ASE to increase Gross Revenue from ground transportation by over 200%.
In addition to equipment tracking technologies, we would propose a simple lot relocation for all ground
transportation companies, excluding TNC’s, to the parking lot directly to the right of the terminal. This lot
already has existing fiber making the installation of new equipment seamless and is already in the best
location for guests. This lot also has more than enough space to account for the different GT companies
that service EGE and could be painted or signed to separate different companies and allow for the best
use of space and traffic flow. This would also eliminate the need for a second staging area currently being
used as a desirable paid parking location.

Parking and Ground Transportation Management Services
Request for Qualifications | Eagle County Regional Airport | 6. Legal Issues 51
TRANSPORTATION NETWORK COMPANIES (TNC’S)
It is our understanding that an agreement with TNC’s is already in place with EGE. LAZ has long -standing
relations with many different TNC’s and could formulate agreements similar to what is in place at ASE and
EGE. TNC’s are generally tracked by Geo-fence technology which allows for easy relocation of pick-up,
drop-off, and staging areas. We would work with EGE to formulate a plan for the most efficient and
effective TNC traffic flow to allow for ease of use for drivers and guests.
TURO
Similar to TNC’s, peer to peer rental car apps are emerging. One familiar company is Turo. LAZ would also
offer assistance managing Turo operations as these users require on-site parking. A plan for long-term
success would be needed as this sector of rental vehicles is rapidly increasing.
8. Additional Information
A) ACDBE Participation
LAZ believes in supporting the communities we work in by supporting the local, small, and disadvantaged
businesses in those communities. When LAZ forms a partnership with a disadvantaged company, we do
not use those companies only to meet a point or percentage requirement for a contract. We utilize those
businesses at our other properties to help support them and give them more opportunities for growth.
We have included both a DBE Uniform firm (Image Concepts) and DBE Merchant Services firm (ICS). We
estimate total spending with these firms to be greater than $30,000 annually. This will assist the Airport
in meeting any federal ACDBE Goals.
LAZ parking has meets or exceeds our ACDBE participation goals in all 22 of our airport contracts.

Our Mission is our Motto: “Create opportunities for our employees and value for our clients.”
Create Opportunities for Employees
We provide our employees with more than just a job. We provide them with opportunities to grow
personally and professionally, and to advance within the organization. LAZ is proud of our employee
achievements and their commitment to the company. Many members of our staff have spent their entire
careers with our organization. The founders of LAZ, and most of our executive team, all started as parking
attendants.

Attachment II: Additional Standard Operating Procedure Information
STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES
Management, Staffing, And Scheduling
Eagle County Regional Airport has an existing employee base from the existing parking operator. This
base of employees has knowledge of the existing operation. We, as a company, always want to speak
with the existing employee base and encourage them to continue their employment at the Airport with
us as long as the Airport is satisfied with the employees' past performance. All existing employees will
still be required to go through the LAZ onboarding process and must pass the pre-screening
requirements as any other employee would.
Staffing At The Highest Levels Of Experience
LAZ Parking is committed to hiring the best-qualified applicants to staff our Airport operation and
providing our employees with the resources necessary to maintain and improve their experience, skills
and qualifications. Most of the positions are both safety sensitive and public trust positions that
require a high degree of understanding of the unique needs of our customers. It is critical that our
candidates possess a high level of integrity, are safety conscious, and have a good work ethic. LAZ
Parking invests in our employees, and we work diligently to develop them as individuals. We
continuously implement new strategies to attract as well as retain the very best employees in the
marketplace.
Building An Efficient Schedule
Our schedule is based on ensuring that adequate resources are allocated for daily operations of the
parking and shuttle operations. Once the passenger counts and flight schedules are analyzed, LAZ will
build a proven parking and busing schedule for both the parking and shuttle operations to ensure that
the load capacity for the bus operator’s entire shift remains at or near 50-60% of the bus capacity. With
this ratio, the bus system will have adequate extra capacity to deliver the peak load requirements and
keep the load utilization at a high level, which improves efficiency and lowers passenger wait time.
Administrative
As described above, LAZ Parking is prepared to provide all administrative services as outlined in the
scope of services. This includes uniform use and selection, personnel background screening and
hiring, invoicing, cash and credit card collection, tax remittance, standard operating procedures
manuals, monthly/quarterly/annual reporting.
Training
Our new employee orientation program focuses on a variety of topics, including customer service. In
addition, LAZ Parking facilitates ambassador training for all staff that interact with the public. We
believe that our staff is an extension of the clients, municipalities, agencies, and cities where they work
and live. Being well-versed in major attractions, directions, and amenities in the areas that visitors,
newcomers, and tourists want to experience during their trip is essential for staff representing Eagle
County Regional Airport.
In addition, one of the key differentiators in the training that LAZ Parking provides to its staff is that we
provide customized, location-specific programs to ensure our teams can readily assist patrons with
questions. We have reserved a one-hour section in our LAZ orientation program to cover key facts and
DocuSign Envelope ID: BEEFE468-394B-4168-A4F7-8BE3BBF64A35
Parking and Ground Transportation Management Services
Request for Qualifications | Eagle County Regional Airport | Attachments 66
information about the Airport that all employees should know. Managers meet with their teams daily
to share important updates, as well as regularly test employees on the knowledge they learned in
orientation. We also include in our training how to find answers to questions that are more obscure,
and we hold employees accountable for never saying to patrons "I don't know," but, instead, "I'm happy
to find that out for you.” In addition, we deploy custom eLearning lessons through our LAZ University
Learning Center for topics such as "Helping Patrons Locate Vehicles" and "Understanding the Basics
of Your Airport Location.” In these lessons (which run less than five minutes and are accessible via
mobile phones), employees learn best practices for assisting airport patrons in the LAZ Way.
Important and unique circumstances are then documented and incorporated into the on-site facility
manual for reference and repeat training efforts should a change in staff occur.
LAZ will provide our staff at Eagle County Regional Airport with all materials to remain consistent with
OSHA requirements for working in the elements and in the heat (specifically water provisions,
sunscreen, protection from heat/cold/rain).
A competent well-trained workforce makes all the difference in providing reliable, professional
services. LAZ Parking puts all job applicants through a rigorous pre -employment screening and
background check process. Once they are part of the family, we provide e xtensive training, room for
growth and other programs for development and support.
HIRING & SELECTION
LAZ Parking has a comprehensive pre-employment screening program in place to ensure only the most
qualified candidates are chosen for employment. Our pre-screening techniques significantly reduce
potential violence, theft, monetary loss, sexual harassment, and other workplace problems.
PRELIMINARY PRE-INTERVIEW SCREENING. At the front-end of the process, LAZ Parking often uses
a professional telephone interviewing service to pre-screen candidates before they are invited in for
formal interviews. Hiring managers are trained in how to narrow down the potential pool of applicants
to qualified individuals and how to thoroughly check employment and personal references.
BACKGROUND CHECKS. All candidates for employment, prior to receiving an employment offer, must
successfully pass a criminal background check. Depending on the preference of our client at any given
location, candidates may also have to pass a pre-employment drug test.
PRE-EMPLOYMENT DRUG TESTS. Pre-employment drug testing is required of all candidates for
employment. We administer similar drug screening tests at all managed locations in which the client
requests that we do.
Orientation & Training
We train our staff on all aspects of parking operations, both upon hire and throughout their careers.
MENTOR SHADOWING. New employees are scheduled to work with an employee in the same job
category 16 to 32 hours, based on manager and mentor evaluations. During the mentor shadowing
process, the mentor reviews all important procedures within the cashier/valet training guide. This
important step assists new employees in adjusting to the specific work environment and gives the new
employee an example of acceptable work habits and teamwork. Mentors are chosen from the field of
veteran employees based on their performance.

LAZ UNIVERSITY. As we discussed in Section 4, we offer LAZ University for all employees. We believe
that LAZ U provides a track for advancement for our staff and drives home the LAZ core belief of
providing opportunity for our employees.
Classroom Training
LAZ Parking’s basic instructional program introduces each new
employee to the fundamentals of parking. A comprehensive
cashier/valet/maintenance training guide educates employees on
guest/customer relations, vehicle handling, facility appearance
standards, job performance techniques, and problem solving. LAZ
Parking requires a minimum of 12 classroom hours of basic training
before employees are permitted to start location specific duties.
POLICIES & PROCEDURES MANUAL
As part of the transition, we will customize a Standard Operating Policy & Procedures (SOPP) manual
to specifically meet the contractual requirements and the scope of work at the Eagle County Regional
Airport. The SOPP manual will be submitted to Eagle County Regional Airport management staff for
approval no later than 60 days after the start date. The SOPP includes emergency procedures and will
be adjusted as necessary to meet the dynamic and evolving parking operations.
The emergency protocols are meant to be used as a general guideline when responding to an irregular
or emergency. Items that will be covered in the SOPP to name a few will be:
⚫ Flight delays
⚫ Automobile accidents
⚫ Automobile fires
⚫ Grease and Oil spills
⚫ PARCS equipment breakdowns
⚫ Credit Card processing disruptions
⚫ Shuttle breakdown
⚫ Extraordinarily high passenger activity or demand surge
⚫ General injury and illness
⚫ Fire emergencies
⚫ Power Outage
⚫ Onsite medical emergency
⚫ Natural disasters – Earthquake, tornados, thunderstorms, etc.
⚫ Civil disturbances
⚫ Bomb threats
⚫ Hazardous materials

HIRING & TRAINING
At LAZ Parking we realize we are only as goo d as our people. Therefore, we are very particular about
who we select to join the LAZ Parking Team. We have developed specific steps to attract and maintain
quality people. We utilize several techniques to seek out and attract employees, which included some
DocuSign Envelope ID: BEEFE468-394B-4168-A4F7-8BE3BBF64A35
Parking and Ground Transportation Management Services
Request for Qualifications | Eagle County Regional Airport | Attachments 68
of the following: employee referrals, local colleges, job fairs, businesses, local churches, advertising,
senior citizen groups and local employment.
The following policies will be administered to ensure that the airport will be of only the highest caliber.
A summary of our intensive hiring process is explained in detail below:
Preliminary Pre-Interview Screening
At the front-end of the process, LAZ Parking conducts telephone interviewing by trained Human
Resources professionals to pre-screen candidates before they are invited in for formal interviews.
Hiring managers are trained in how to narrow down the potential pool of applicants to qualified
individuals, and how to thoroughly check employment and personal references.
Background Checks
All candidates for employment, prior to receiving an employment offer, must successfully pass a
criminal background check. Depending on the preference of our client at any given location,
candidates may also have to pass a pre-employment drug test.
Criminal Background Checks
LAZ Parking utilizes the services of ADP Screening and Selection Services, to perform background
checks (including criminal record searches) and SambaSafety, Inc. to perform motor vehicle record
searches on all prospective entry-level and management candidates. Screening of all management-
level candidates, including supervisors, specifically covers criminal records, motor vehicle driving
infractions (if the positions involve driving), educational credentials and prior employment.
Pre-employment Drug Tests
Pre-employment drug testing is required of all manager candidates for employment. We administer
drug screening tests at all locations per client requests.
Screening Reduces Turnover and Improves Customer Relations
Our hiring and pre-screening process helps us identify and retain qualified employees for the long-term,
which, reduces turnover costs and gives our clients and parking customers the opportunity to establish
the personal relationships and trust for a successful and profitable parking operation.
Initial Employment
All persons hired to work, full or part-time, become employees of LAZ, are required to conform to rules
and regulations of LAZ and are expected to perform their duties in the best interests of LAZ and its
customers. The Human Resources Department performs a criminal background check for all new
hires and follows the guidelines set forth by state and local government. All new hires participate in
LAZ Parking’s orientation program, which educates them on company policies, procedures, ethical,
obligations, and employee benefits. Federal laws require that every employee must show proof of
citizenship or a right-to-work document.
At the start of employment, each employee is on probation for a period of 90 days, during which time
the employee's performance, attendance, job skills, and attitude is carefully evaluated. If at any time
during the probation period, the new employee fails to meet the requirements specified for the job, the
employee may be terminated or offered another assignment. Employees must have self -confidence
and a high level of self-esteem, must have good social skills, and must present a good personal
appearance. Because LAZ believes that first impressions are lasting impressions, and because LAZ

The Parkology Academy is all about the parking business and several of the courses of Parkology are
required of all LAZ staff before they begin work. Parkology begins with the fundamentals of LAZ, and
then provides job-specific training for the various front-line positions.
All new LAZ team members are given a comprehensive classroom-based orientation program. This
includes reviewing the company’s policies and procedures, confirming company and employee
expectations, and reviewing the employee benefits program. All our employees receive the LAZ
Ultimate Hospitality Employee Handbook during Orientation. In addition, employees are presented
with information concerning their specific responsibilities pertaining to the position for which they are
being hired. They will also be given a thorough understanding of the specifics related to the parking
operations, and the Owner’s expectations.
Academy 2 –Leadership and Management
The Leadership and Management Academy curriculum helps shape already exceptional LAZ/Ultimate
people into LAZ/Ultimate leaders. Courses, eLearning Lessons, and Self-Directed Activities are aimed
at developing skills needed to become an efficient and effective manager of employe es and
operations.

critical notion further by extending exceptional Customer Service to include the Client. The curriculum
of Academy 4 ensures that LAZ people are highly trained in Customer Service and that their leadership
expertise carries over to how they work with client’s day to day.
Corporate Planning and Development Expertise and Resources
LAZ Parking has an extensive amount of corporate planning and resources available for all our Aviation
clients. We are unique in that we not only have the typical support departments such as Human
Resources, Legal, Insurance, and IT. But we also have a Reg ional and an Aviation group that no other
Parking company can provide EGE. Both our Regional and Airport Offices provide additional support
staff that is only a short drive away and can be on site in a short period of time should the need arise.
LAZ also has a dedicated Airport Division who have over 100 years of combined Parking and
Transportation management specific to Aviation. The Aviation team is active members in AAAE and
have members on the Corporate Committee for the Great Lakes Chapter along with active participation
in other AAAE Chapters. Our entire Teams’ goal is to exceed the Airport’s expectations and provide a
DocuSign Envelope ID: BEEFE468-394B-4168-A4F7-8BE3BBF64A35

first in class parking operation for our mutual customers. We do this by being proactive and bringing
new technology and recommendations to EGE and suggesting improvements.
Our Team is looking to be a partner with EGE as we continue to come out of the pandemic and traffic
continues to grow. As proof, we have included in our proposal not only your requested requirements
for the operation but an alternate more technologically advanced method of operation that we have
implemented at other Airports. With this alternate method we will provide a much greater financial
return to the Airport. These are the types of corporate resources that we bring to EGE.
Quality Control Procedures Including Financial Management and Revenue Control Systems.
FINANCIAL CONTROLS
At LAZ parking, we take our duty to protect client revenues seriously. Our
commitment to the protection of our client’s revenues begins with our audit
team. Our team is over twenty members strong, with regional auditors
residing in each region across the US, supported by specialists in our
corporate headquarters in Hartford, Connecticut.
We dedicate 2.7 million dollars per year to support our audit program. An impressive figure, but it is
not just about how much money we spend, it’s about the team, the use of technology , and our
effectiveness in continually improving the quality of our operations.
The information gathered in our audits is not only used to fix specific deficiencies in the location being
audited; we use that information to steer personnel decisions, develop training modules , and manage
resources. Our audit department works closely with our training, human resources, and IT
departments. It is all about collaboration with an eye towards improving our operations.
Our customized software connects our banks to our revenue reporting system to automate the
process of reconciling cashier reports to cash and credit card deposits received in our bank. Our
dedicated team of revenue auditors monitors the variances identified by our software daily and acts
quickly to resolve variance issues.
Our operational audits utilize a sophisticated software program to collect data. Each li ne item of the
audits are scored numerically. The software captures the scores in a database which provides the
ability to slice and dice the results by, type of operation, sections of audit, line items in the audit. We
can assess performance by local teams, regions or across the organization. The visibility and
accountability brought about by the dashboard reporting drives a pro-active approach to managing our
operations.
AUDIT AND REPORTING PROCEDURES
LAZ Parking has several types of audits it performs on a regular basis. These include:
⚫ Routine Audits
⚫ Petty Cash Audit (If applicable)
⚫ Unannounced Audits and Spot
Audits
⚫ Internal Audits
⚫ Secret Shopper
⚫ Customer Surveys

Stringent revenue control is critical for LAZ because we manage millions of dollars of clients’ revenue and
must ensure revenue integrity. LAZ prides itself on ensuring we implement streamlined separation of
duties, cash handling procedures, and audit procedures. Because the function of auditing is so important,
we have a Corporate Operational Audit Department. One of the many roles of the Operational Audit
Department is to conduct both scheduled and unannounced audits. Significant findings are reported to the
client, and corrective actions are taken immediately. Operational audit is a crucial function to add value
and improve an organization’s operations.
It assists a company in providing a systematic, disciplined approach to improve the effectiveness of risk
management and financial control. The audit department reviews and investigates financial data, systems,
policies, procedures, and internal controls to ensure that record keeping is accurate, and controls are in
place.
SPOT AUDITS
Spot audits will be performed on a regular, but unscheduled basis. This spot audit will include a physical
ticket count, a detailed calculation for all tickets, a corresponding automated audit trail from the parking
revenue control equipment, and cash deposit reconciliation.
SHIFT REPORT AUDIT
⚫ Tracking opening/closing ticket numbers, shift number, date
⚫ Verification that revenue collected is accurate and reported correctly
⚫ Validated ticket information, deposit information
⚫ Confirmation that no-charge and voided tickets are accounted for and properly explained
⚫ All information is compared to the register report/revenue control equipment
⚫ All information must have appropriate backup (credit card, deposit slips, etc.)
⚫ Once audited, keyed into Monthly Revenue Recap and provided to auditors
SECONDARY AUDIT
Secondary Audits are performed on-site by a Regional Auditor. Once all information is gathered, a report
is compiled and sent to the Operations Manager, the Portfolio Manager, and the General Manager, with
copies to the Regional Vice President and Regional Controller.
The Manager then has ten business days to respond to the findings of the audit. This audit confirms that

REVENUE RECONCILIATION
Activity generated by the location’s revenue control equipment is reconciled and recorded by attendants
located in the field using the WebDCR (“Daily Cash Receipts”) application. A LAZ Home Office accountant
has access to the bank account and is responsible for reconciling the source activity to the bank account
and ensuring that deposits recorded by the field are actually received and accurately recorded in the
system applications and underlying financial statements. Exceptions are researched with the field and
reconciled accordingly.
As part of the monthly accounting and reporting, managed bank accounts are reconciled by the accountant
using the T-Recs application prior to the activity being posted to the G/L. A complete compilation of
monthly activity is summarized in a comprehensive financial report package, which includes relevant
schedules, reports, and supporting documentation.
T-Recs is an automated bank reconciliation software that auto-matches internally generated transactions
created in the various LAZ systems and applications (see listing below) to the respective bank account
(see banking institutions below) and related activity and transactions, which are downloaded in a
formatted BAI file.
The reconciliation process is performed for individual locations that have a dedicated bank account
established for all sources of revenues/deposits and expenses/disbursements. Bank reconciliations are
performed monthly as part of the monthly accounting and reporting for locations under management
contracts.

VARIANCE ANALYSIS
Variance analysis is conducted on a weekly and monthly basis for both revenue and expenses. Variance
analysis is a group process including the Facility Manager, the regional General Manager, and the regional
Controller. Each individual involved is asking two basic questions:
1. Why was revenue higher or lower than budget?
2. Why were expenses higher or lower than budget?
This analysis is a three-step process:
Step 1: Obtain an Excel version of the FRx Monthly Income Statement (P&L), including Actual vs. Budget
with Variance for the Month and YTD.
DocuSign Envelope ID: BEEFE468-394B-4168-A4F7-8BE3BBF64A35
Parking and Ground Transportation Management Services
Request for Qualifications | Eagle County Regional Airport | Attachments 74
The regional accountant responsible for completing the location’s monthly reporting will provide the Excel
file with a draft copy of the monthly financial report, which is reviewed and approved by the Facility
Manager.
The Income Statement – Monthly Trend may also be used as part of the review of Actual vs. Budget
variances to explain variances that are primarily due to timing.
Furthermore, a comparative (Year over Year) Income Statement may be used as part of the analytics and
documentation process.
Step 2: Review the Income Statement - Actual vs. Budget file, which includes highlighted variances for all
line items that represent a variance using a threshold of +/- $5,000 and 5% (as an example). Variances
with positive amounts are “favorable” or “outperformed budget” whereas variances with negative amounts
are “unfavorable” or “exceeded budget” (expenses).
Thresholds may vary; however, levels are typically set at $10k and 10%; or $5k and 5%, depending on the
volume and activity, as well as the decision made by the client or location Facility Manager of what items
require explanation.
⚫ Line items with variances that exceed the thresholds that are not budgeted should be explained.
⚫ Explanations need to be provided for the current month and year to date results.
Step 3: When documenting and explaining variances, the analysis will be clear, concise, and complete. The
response must support why the actual result was favorable or unfavorable when compared to the budget.
⚫ Variances will be shared with the Client monthly or as otherwise directed.
MONTHLY REPORTING AND FINANCIALS
LAZ Parking employs over 20 management accountants in the Hartford, Connecticut Home Office,
including dedicated management accountants who work directly with the local team to ensure that client
monthly reporting packages are delivered on time and with accuracy. A benefit of working with LAZ
Parking is the flexibility in creating a reporting package that delivers to the owner a package that contains
only the pertinent information a client desires. We have included an outline below sample reporting
package. In completing the monthly accounting procedures, the CRS team utilizes best practices, controls,
and procedures to ensure that client revenues are tracked, reported, and reconciled accurately.
The team members also utilize a comprehensive mix of enterprise and custom open-source applications,
including Epicor, Doc-Link, IntegraPark - Paris, as well as a custom developed web-based Daily Cash
Reporting (WebDCR). Monthly accounting transactions from all transactional sources, including banking
and financial institutions are integrated, matched, and reconciled using T-Recs Enterprise total
reconciliation solution. End user reports are generated using FRx or SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS)
and accessible by clients through a private and secure online portal.

Although the department has
standardized client reporting, there is
flexibility to offer financial reports in
formats that are tailored to each client
to include all desired relevant financial
and operational content. The Client
Services List summarizes all available
financial related report contents that
may be included in a monthly report.
Although all reports do not typically
include every item listed, clients are
consulted prior to transition to develop
the appropriate content and
information to provide each month.
The accountants work closely with the
field operations teams to develop any
additional KPI’s and non-financial data
that may be required to be included in
the monthly report.
In completing the monthly accounting
procedures, the department utilizes
best practices, controls, and
procedures to ensure that client
revenues are tracked, reported, and
reconciled accurately. We utilize a
proprietary Daily Cash Reporting (DCR)
report that tracks revenues by type and detailed deposits tha t allow for efficient and accurate
reconciliation.
RECORD KEEPING
LAZ Parking has developed a comprehensive Records Management and Retention program that is
administered through our Operational Integrity and Audit Department in concert with our Regional Of fices.
Included within this program is a designated Records Administrator that is assigned to the Midwest
Region. The program is designed to address records management and retrieval policies on a corporate
basis and specific to individual contract requirements.
As many of our municipal and government clients have more stringent record retention policies, our
program is tailored to meet the individual contract requirements and are detailed as part of our Standard
Operating Procedures. As part of our transition efforts, the Records Management Plan (As part of our SOP)
will be submitted for approval to the City after the award of the contract, anticipated to be at the Post
Award Meeting.
The Records Management Plan address the individual storage requirements for each type of record
including the required length of retention, the physical location of the storage facility, digital storage
requirements as permitted, and the specific retrieval process including request procedures and
authorization to access records. The plan will also identify any and all employees that are responsible for

the administration of records. The number of employees involved in the record control and retention
process will be minimized too as few as possible.
