FIFA is seeking to understand different approaches to implementing a PPMS, such as linking through a FIFA Ticketing system for selling parking permits to spectators or using the Supplier's system to manage and validate digital VAPPs.
FIFA is looking for a system that is scalable and that can manage parking and permitting across multiple venues in the United States for the FWC 2026 and 16 venues distributed across Canada, Mexico, and the United States for the FWC26.
Although the number of parking lots, parking stalls, and parking lot locations are still under development at each venue, FIFA hopes that suppliers can provide direction on the implementation of the PPMS based on their previous experience with significant sporting events such as the NFL, CFP, NHL, MLB, F1, MLS, and other mega-events.
The system must accommodate various user groups, including but not limited to VVIPs, VIPs, media, and spectators, ensuring the efficient management of their parking needs via a client-facing web portal. This includes issuing and tracking VAPPs for different types of users, providing a smooth and secure experience for all participants.
The system should also enable monitoring and tracking of VAPP usage, providing real-time data and reporting capabilities to support traffic and transport operations. This will help manage traffic flows effectively and maintain high-security standards at all venues. Detailed reports on VAPP usage will allow us to analyze trends and optimize the system continuously, and they should also be provided via dashboards.
