The IFHS 10 has an automated activation system 38 configured to activate and deactivate the facility 16, communication systems for communicating between components, and a hire management / control unit 36 provisioning facilities for hire requests from hirers. The IFHS 10 has the ability to selectively enable and disable facilities 16 (e.g. tennis nets/tennis courts) based on the presence of a valid reservation/booking. The IFHS 10 includes multiple components dispersed across different geographical areas, including backend components 14 and local components at each managed facility 16. Once a reservation is made by a user, the information is relayed from the backend 14 to the managed facility 16, which then enables the facility 16 for the hire duration and conditions.Figure A 10 $2 22 12 x 2 L 24 26 28 34 32 30 14 AP 31 36 I-c U160a 0 43 4539 I. 46 42 44 38
