Shot on our own job sites, by our own people. No renderings, no stock photography — just a year of real installations across Texas, Oklahoma and beyond.
Our own people
Our own technicians commission every lane that goes live. Where a job needs other trades we bring in partners we have worked with for years — working under our contract and our supervision. It is also why we can photograph the work instead of buying pictures of it.

Where We Work
Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas and New Mexico. Headquarters is Dallas, with branches in Austin and Houston — but a branch here is not an outpost, and it is certainly not a sales office with a phone on the desk. Every one of these markets has our people in it and our money behind it.
Headquarters, parts inventory and the largest share of our technicians. Also where the biggest job on our books this year is going in.
A full branch, not a satellite. Some of our largest and fastest-growing work sits here — airport, civic and commercial — and it is where we are investing hardest.
A branch in Austin covering Central Texas, carrying significant public-sector and higher-education work through the corridor into San Antonio.
A technician who lives in the market, not one we dispatch. Sales and operations are on the ground regularly, and we are actively growing here rather than simply covering it.
We are not a Dallas company that will drive down for the install. Wherever your site is in those five states, somebody of ours is already working nearby this week — which is what lets us hold a response standard of under four hours, and same day when a fault is costing you money. More on that below.
And when a project sits outside them, we do not pretend otherwise. We install it ourselves, then put a vetted local provider on day-to-day service under our contract — local response held to our standard, with us still accountable for the system. It is the only honest way to cover a site a thousand miles from your nearest van.
Texas
High-rise decks, employee gates, retail districts, event plazas. Different buildings, different headaches, one platform underneath — and the same crews on all of them.
New Capability
Most drivers in North Texas already carry a toll tag. Using one to open a gate is ordinary — every operator can do it, and we have for years. Using it to take the money is not. We partnered with the toll agency to charge parking directly to the driver’s toll account, and it is live now at a newly opened destination in Frisco.
This is not license plate recognition. It is the RFID credential the tollway already reads — reliable in rain, in glare and at night, with the driver enrolled long before they ever reach you.
Nothing to issue, nothing to lose, nothing to reissue when somebody leaves. The parker drives in and drives out, and the charge lands on the account they already reconcile every month.
That photograph is our own bench, mid-test, with staged credentials. Which is the point: we prove it on our equipment before it ever touches yours.
Houston
A landmark Houston shopping and dining district — sixteen blocks, hundreds of shops and restaurants, and the better part of a century of history. Also a parking reputation that had customers circling for half an hour and giving up.
Here is the counter-intuitive part, and it is true of almost every busy retail district: the spaces already exist. It was never a supply problem. It was that nobody could tell where to go, how long they had, or what it would cost.
So the old system came out and a complete lane went in — entry station, barrier drive and controls — wearing the property’s own branding rather than a vendor’s. Rates legible on the machine. A free window that does not need a validation ritual at every till. And enough turnover to keep the curb moving for the businesses that depend on it.
Every empty space a shopper cannot find is a table a restaurant does not seat.
A note on names. Some of the properties on this page are identified and some are not. That is not coyness — we name a client where they are happy to be named, and describe the work where they would rather we did not. If you want to speak to somebody running a system like the one you are considering, ask us and we will make the introduction with their permission.
Houston
Downtown decks, medical-district garages and mixed-use blocks, run out of our own Houston branch on Port West Drive. All of these went in this year.

Tell us the site and we will tell you what it needs — and what it does not.
Custom Faceplates
Your garage is part of the building. Your machines should look like it. Same hardware underneath, finished in your colors, your logo, your wayfinding — and nobody has to know who made it.
Downtown Houston
Airports
Airport parking is the hardest version of this job. Demand arrives in waves, the access road rewards every second you save, and none of it can wait for a quiet week. Our own technicians install and commission these — across our five states, and once in a while a very long way outside them.
That includes our airport work. This exit plaza moves traffic for a world-famous Texas airport — the largest TIBA has ever put a system into, installed and commissioned by our own crews. Call us and we will happily tell you which one.
This one was a long way from Texas. An international airport needed thirty lanes replaced and live before the holidays, and it needed a crew that had already done it at that scale.
So ours got on a plane. Thirty lanes installed and commissioned through the heart of an Iowa winter, snow banked along the curb, open and taking traffic before the year was out. Our people are Texan. They went anyway.
Then we did the part most vendors skip. Day-to-day service is delivered by a local provider working under our contract — so the airport gets local response to the same standard we hold ourselves to, and we remain the company answerable for the system.
We flew home. The contract stayed.
Versatility
Same platform underneath every one of these. What changes is the rules — and the rules are where the money is. A fuel desk that waives the parking, a roll door that answers to a tag, a lot that keeps earning with nobody in it, a machine that takes cards and nothing else.
So the equipment goes up on a raised pedestal, the approach angles get redrawn, and the mount gets engineered for vehicles that sedans were never built to share a lane with.
Then look at the rates board. First two hours free. Twenty-five a day — waived on a sixty-gallon fill. The parking system talks to the fuel desk. A driver who buys diesel parks for nothing, automatically, with nobody checking a receipt.
That is not a feature in a brochure. That is us building the rules around how a business actually makes money.
Modernizing What You Own
The faceplate at The Towers at Williams Square is original. The yellow terminal in the middle of it is not — that is a modern EMV reader, retrofitted into equipment that predates the technology by decades.
A lot of parking hardware still in service was installed a long time ago and still does its job. Replacing all of it is rarely the right call and almost never the cheapest one.
When replacement genuinely is the answer, we will say so. Until then we would rather make what you already own worth keeping.
Mid-build
Some components are simply no longer manufactured. Once spares are gone, keeping a lane alive stops being maintenance and starts being a gamble on the next failure.
Card standards move. Where a modern EMV terminal can be retrofitted, we retrofit it. Where the platform cannot carry current payment security, that is a genuine reason to change the equipment.
Pedestals, mounts and conduit take a beating for years. If the thing holding the equipment is failing, new equipment on an old mount buys you nothing.
Everything else, we keep running. We will walk your garage, tell you which lanes have life left in them and which do not, and put it in writing — before anyone talks about a quote.
Another older unit, still earning its keep. Keeping equipment like this alive is unglamorous work that almost never makes it onto anyone’s website.
It is also a very large part of what our service department does every day — and it is the reason customers stay with us for decades rather than through a warranty.
We will walk any of these garages with you, or yours. No slide deck required.
Healthcare & Campus
People arrive frightened, in pain, or late for something that matters. Staff turn over in waves at shift change. Visitors have never been here before and will not be again. And an ambulance lane is not a place where a gate gets to have an opinion.
We are live inside two of the largest hospital systems in Dallas–Fort Worth and one of Houston’s biggest. A third major DFW academic medical center goes fully live within the next twelve months. That is not a vertical we are hoping to break into. It is one we already work in every week.
The TIBA SPARK platform carries TX-RAMP Level 2 certification — the Texas assessment a state agency, public university or public hospital verifies before a cloud service touches their environment. We filed and sponsored that certification ourselves, because our customers needed it to exist.
Large campuses already run their permits, populations and enforcement somewhere. We connect to it rather than asking a hospital or a university to run parking twice.
A stuck lane at a hospital entrance is not a revenue problem, it is a patient problem. Anything blocking access gets a technician the same day.
The measure of a campus system is not what the equipment does. It is whether a nurse finishing a twelve-hour shift gets out without touching anything, and whether a family arriving at the worst moment of their year has to think about parking at all.
Hotels & venues
We hold a master service agreement with one of the world’s largest hotel groups and run their parking integration across four Dallas–Fort Worth properties. Add a downtown San Antonio convention hotel renewed this year, a Houston luxury property running Opera, and the hotel at Frisco’s new theme park.
The property management system passes the guest across the moment they check in. The keycard they are handed opens the gate. Nothing extra for the front desk to do, and nothing for the guest to collect.
Parking lands on the room bill rather than as a separate transaction at a machine. The guest settles once, at checkout, the way they settle everything else.
The credential expires automatically, with grace time added so a guest can still leave any time on the day they check out. No staff action, no orphaned cards left working in the garage.
A hotel guest pass pairs on a single use. The first time that keycard is presented in the lane, license plate recognition ties the plate to the guest — and from the next arrival on, the gate opens with no card, no device and no window down.
Direct integrations, no middleware: Opera, Hilton OnQ, Infor and Galaxy Lightspeed — and through Comtrol where a property runs something else. It works with the locks already on the doors, including dormakaba, Onity, Ving and Safloc.
TX-RAMP Level 2, integration with the systems your campus already runs, and a technician the same day when it is costing you money. Tell us the site.
The Other Half
Everything above is steel in the ground, because that is what photographs well. It is also only half of what we hand over. The other half runs in a browser, and for most owners it is the half that decides whether the system was worth buying.
A cloud platform covering the whole portfolio — every lot, every lane, from a desk or a phone. No on-site server for your team to patch, back up or replace.
More than 150 built-in reports covering revenue, occupancy, validations, contract parkers and guests. Reconcile money by cashier session rather than by calendar day, which is what makes an audit trail hold up.
Monthly parkers, guest passes, validations and rates managed across every site from one place — instead of a spreadsheet per garage and a phone call to whoever has the key.
We would rather show you this live than describe it. Ask for a walkthrough on your own portfolio and we will run the reports you would actually have to produce.
The People Doing It
Every lane on this page was set, wired, commissioned and tested by an Associated Time technician. On the biggest jobs we bring in partners we have worked with for years — but they work to our program, under our contract, and our own people commission whatever goes live. The accountability never moves. When something needs attention at two in the afternoon, the person who answers is the person answerable for it.
Our standard expected response across the service area. Not a target we quote and then explain away — the number we run the department against.
A gate that will not open is revenue leaving the building. Anything revenue-impacting gets a technician the same day.
The Year Ahead
Every tube in there is a barrier arm, and behind them are the drives to run them. One delivery, one campus, close to a hundred lanes going in across this year.
It is our largest installation of 2026, it is happening in our own back yard, and we are not saying whose yet.
A job that size is not something you scale up to overnight. It is what a long bench of the best partners in this industry gets you — the installers, electricians and fabricators we have worked alongside for years, brought onto one campus, working to our program and under our contract, with our own technicians commissioning what goes live.
It is also why taking this on does not slow anything else down. Your job does not wait behind it.
Something big is coming. Watch this space.
