Jaama is the UK’s leading fleet software innovator and continues to push the technological and functionality boundaries to ensure organisations operate at the cutting-edge of data management, operational best practice and compliance.  As a result, Jaama has been named Fleet News’ reader recommended software supplier for 2020.

The company’s multi-award winning, web-based Key2 system is a totally integrated vehicle, asset and driver management solution covering all aspects of fleet management, from acquisition through in-life management to vehicle disposal, compliance and driver performance.

Fleet requirements are becoming increasingly complex, driven by an ever-growing need to control costs and improve efficiencies. Key2 enables those demands to be met at the operational level and management to easily drill into data to access whatever detailed reports are required.

Investment in technology, without doubt, will lead to huge administrative time savings. However, the ability to drill down easily to quickly understand where money is being spent and highlight any compliance irregularities will enable companies to soon reap dividends by acting quickly and making well-informed strategic decisions.

Martin Evans, managing director, said: “Jaama is the industry’s benchmark for quality and innovation and is established as the UK’s most recommended software supplier in the fleet, leasing and hire markets by customers. Winning this accolade from Fleet News further underpins the company’s industry-leading status.”
