Faster to Market: How Automated Parking Cuts Construction Timelines

In the race to complete developments, every day counts. And while much attention is paid to vertical construction speed, one of the most underestimated bottlenecks is the parking garage.

At Harding APS, we’ve seen how transitioning from traditional poured-in-place decks to automated parking systems can shave weeks—or even months—off a project timeline. Here's how:

Less Concrete, Less Digging, Less Delay

Conventional garages require extensive excavation, structural slabs, and ramp layouts. That’s time, money, and coordination across multiple trades. Automated systems reduce or eliminate these steps. Most can be installed above-grade or within shallow pits, drastically simplifying structural work.

Modular Systems Mean Faster Installs

Our modular stacker systems and car elevators are fabricated off-site, shipped, and installed with minimal site disruption. Projects that used to require 8–12 weeks of garage construction can now achieve parking readiness in a fraction of the time.

Streamlined Approvals

By working closely with local AHJs (Authorities Having Jurisdiction), Harding APS helps you bypass the code confusion often associated with alternative parking layouts. UL, NEC—so you can keep moving without permitting delays.

The result? Faster occupancy. Quicker lease-up. Shorter time to ROI.
