The iconic new 87,000sqm Discovery global headquarters in Sandton - diagonally opposite Sandton City and a short block’s walk away from the Sandton Gautrain Station.

The building will comprise two wings with eight floors of offices plus a ground floor and a feature roof level. It will also offer nine basements with 6000 parking bays.

The resource-efficient and cost-effective building is the largest single commercial office development in Africa, and is also one of the most innovative.

With 6000 parking bays across 9 underground floors, Parking Guidance System is a necessity. Further, in order to maximize the number of parking bays, aisles with dead end been introduced, bringing the Parking Guidance System to a MUST HAVE level.

The Diamond Parking Guidance System was chosen mainly due to its proven the high accuracy. High accuracy is a vital factor for every PGS system but it is a crucial factor in large installations especially with dead ends

Also the Diamond PGS is the greenest system available which suits the building design as a green building.

Finally, cost is always a main deciding factor with such large projects. The Diamond PGS is a very cost effective system; it offered all these benefits at a lower price tag.
