Overview

Pertemps, one of the UK’s best-known recruitment and logistics firms, has been a Jaama customer since 2004. With thousands of agency drivers across the UK, including HGV Class 1 drivers working for blue-chip companies, manual licence checking had become a slow, resource-heavy process.


By introducing Key2 Fleet Management and Jaama’s Licence2Check service, Pertemps finally replaced manual checks with a fully automated, DVLA-linked process. Every branch now has direct access to Key2, ensuring compliance, saving countless hours of admin, and giving complete confidence that every driver is legal and ready for the road.

The company

Pertemps is one of the UK’s leading recruitment specialists with a nationwide network of branches. Alongside workforce solutions, it manages a wide pool of drivers for logistics and transport operations.

Its scale and reputation demand high standards of compliance, efficiency, and auditability. With licence validation forming a critical part of keeping drivers and fleets legal, Pertemps turned to Jaama to provide a system robust enough to manage compliance at scale.

“You cannot run a complicated fleet without a fleet management system and the business could not run without Key2. The system is very robust and efficient and provides Pertemps with a clear audit trail which flags up any issues that need to be tackled. Every branch in the UK has access to Key2. We assessed other driver licence checking systems, but Licence2Check came out massively on top.

“We could not comply with all the legislative requirements without Key2 and the system probably does the job of five or six people. It provides Pertemps with the tools to do the job required. I think that the breadth of knowledge that the Jaama team has is immense and never fails to astound me.”

Adrian Harris, Group Fleet Manager, Pertemps

The challenge

With thousands of agency drivers working on behalf of blue-chip companies, Pertemps needed a licence checking solution that went beyond manual admin. The old approach required significant resources, introduced risk of error, and slowed down onboarding.

As its driver pool expanded, Pertemps needed:

A centralised system to validate licences consistently across every branch.
A clear audit trail to stay compliant with legislation.
A scalable solution that could keep pace with business growth.

The solution

Jaama introduced Key2 Fleet Management alongside its integrated Licence2Check driver licence checking service. This automated system links directly with the DVLA, verifying licence details for both Pertemps’ own employees and its thousands of agency drivers.

The outcome? Every driver is checked quickly, accurately, and consistently, with results feeding directly into Key2 for a complete compliance picture. This automation not only reduced risk but also freed up resources, delivering the equivalent of five or six admin roles.

Thousands
