Prohire, which operates a fleet of more than 2,000 commercial vehicles, has introduced Jaama’s Key2 leasing and vehicle management system.

The new system provides: cradle to grave vehicle management, online ordering, online quotations, fully integrated accounts and customer billing. 

In addition, Prohire has adopted Data Vision - an online portal that allows its customers to run pre-defined reports and view real-time driver and vehicle-related information such as MOTs, servicing, inspection and Road Fund Licence renewals.

Prohire IT supervisor Gareth Holdcroft said: “There were huge limitations to the previous system including its rigid make-up, access speed and accessibility to management information.

“As it was not an online system, management information had to be requested by customers and we would then compile the required reports. The system was slow, administratively cumbersome and labour intensive. Effectively it had been outgrown by Prohire’s expansion and desire to deliver added value to customers.”

Prohire has its own vehicle workshops  and is looking to further expand Key2 Vehicle Management utilisation by introducing the workshop management module.
