TCH Leasing has chosen Jaama’s Key2 asset management platform to run its fleet of 9,000 contract hire, fleet management and salary sacrifice vehicles.

The entire system was implemented remotely via Zoom during the pandemic, which included training for up to 50 TCH system users

TCH chose Jaama to help future proof the growth and management aspirations of its leasing business, while supporting its wide range of customers with diverse fleet needs and challenges.

Mark Hammond, TCH Leasing joint managing director, said: “We work to the ethos of one size does not fit all when it comes to vehicle leasing.

“We work with several different types of fleets from SMEs to blue chip companies as well as public sector customers.

“We also run a small brokerage and daily rental operation while around 15-20% of our fleet is made up of light commercials.

“Add to that a newly launched salary sacrifice scheme and you can appreciate how diverse our fleet is and the multiple requirements of our customers and their drivers.

“Jaama’s Key2 system has the power to manage everything within one system and their team understand our different customer’s requirements from quote to order and in-life vehicle management.”

TCH Leasing says that Key2 can hold the most up to date list of hybrid and electric cars available from manufacturers. This enables TCH and its customers to generate quotes on the very latest cars available and to order against a number of different parameters depending on the funding and fleet type.

“Drivers want quotes on cars that have been recently launched by manufacturers and we can rest assured our quotation engine includes these models with the very latest Government grant allowances,” said Hammond.

“This dynamic approach adds real value to our offering to customers, which compares with our previous systems which didn’t evolve much over a five-year period.”

TCH has adopted Key2’s fully integrated accounting module which enables all accounting processes to be centralised in one system for the first time, while its own app, customer portals and e-signature facility have also been incorporated into the Key2 system.

TCH Leasing is the third contract hire business system Jaama has rolled out under Covid-19 pandemic restrictions in the past 18 months.

Martin Evans, Jaama’s managing director, said: “There has been a greater focus on software that can bring tangible improvements during the pandemic, and we are pleased TCH has chosen to work with us to future proof the running of its business.

“TCH’s ‘one size does not fit all company ethos’ means they provide different bespoke solutions to their eclectic mix of fleet customers.

“Key2 is set up to manage all of these different customer arrangements on a single platform and we look forward to working with TCH and help them grow their fleet over the coming years.”
