Jaama, the UK’s leading fleet industry asset management software system provider, has already embarked on further expansion in 2016.
Twelve months ago Jaama strengthened its board of directors to spearhead growth in the UK and internationally.
Jaama managing director Martin Evans said: “While the company continued to expand its client base in 2015, the year was very much about strengthening the team to gear up for our exponential growth which has so far led to recruiting 22 new employees throughout the business.”
Now employing almost 70 people, and with plans to expand its Tamworth headquarters to accommodate further growth, Mr Evans said: “2016 is promising to be another fantastic year for Jaama. We have the resources in place and continue to invest significantly in the development of our Key2 management software which leads the industry.”
Jaama, the UK’s leading fleet industry asset management software system provider, has achieved best-in-class accreditation to the much sought after Microsoft Gold standard.
The company’s industry-leading, multi award-winning Key2 Vehicle Management software is built for the Microsoft.NET framework and using ‘Smart Client’ technology, gold competency demonstrates best-in-breed capability to its existing users and, importantly, new prospects.
To achieve Microsoft Gold competency, Jaama completed a rigorous series of tests to prove its level of technology expertise.
The fast-growing company has an established reputation for cutting-edge technology innovation since launching more than a decade ago, and its strong focus on new software development throughout last year continues in 2016.
Jaama strengthened its software development team last year with the promotion of Stuart Mills to the newly-created role of development director.
Leading fleet and asset management software supplier Jaama has further strengthened its development team as part of its strategic ongoing Key2 product enhancement plan. Allan Streeting has joined Jaama as a software developer with more than 12 years’ industry experience behind him. Mr Streeting joins Jaama at an exciting time with the company forecasting significant growth in 2016.
Jaama’s success is based on its market-leading Key2 software delivering innovative vehicle and driver management solutions to clients allied to continuous investment in system enhancements and its ever-present focus on customer service excellence.

Leading fleet and asset management software company Jaama is exhibiting at the London Borough of Redbridge 2016 Transport Conference with the focus on compliance.
Organised in partnership with the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport, the annual event is being held on Wednesday, February 17, 2016 at Ilford.
The event is in its sixth year with conference speakers addressing the current and future compliance challenges faced by fleet managers, whether operating commercial vehicles, company cars or ‘grey fleet’ vehicles.
Cost management and compliance are critical for public as well as private sector organisations which is why an ever-increasing number of fleet decision-makers are turning to Jaama’s multi-award winning software to manage their drivers and transport operations as well as a multitude of other assets.
Jaama has promoted a ‘spend to save’ philosophy to the public sector with its core Key2 Vehicle Management software delivering online flexibility, touch screen technology, in depth management reporting and across-department integration and accessibility.
Key2 delivers the ability to manage fleet vehicles, drivers, plant equipment and workshops and to integrate with software used by other local authority departments, including human resources and finance. On the Jaama stand in the event’s exhibition arena, delegates will be able to glean a comprehensive insight into the cutting-edge Key2 system with modules including Risk Profile and Licence2Check.
Businesses have just a few weeks to complete their first mandatory audit to meet the government’s Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS), which includes reporting on company cars, vans and trucks as well as privately-owned vehicles driven on work-related trips.
Critical to accurately calculating the amount of energy used by vehicles on business-related journeys are detailed fuel purchasing and mileage records, although the government has said ‘averages’ and ‘suitable assumptions’ can be used.
Data captured by Seven Asset Management on every aspect of a vehicle’s in-life operation enables the company to obtain absolute visibility of all issues linked to mileage and service, maintenance and repair (SMR) to ensure clients’ fleets function at maximum efficiency and meet all regulatory requirements.
The Suffolk-based commercial vehicle contract hire specialist operates an expanding fleet of some 1,700 commercial vehicles ranging in size from light commercial vehicles to 44-tonne HGVs and including specialist tanker, crane and refrigerated vehicles and trailers incorporating various ancillary equipment.
The government has launched its annual festive season campaign to tackle drink-driving, this year targeting those who do not recognise that even a small number of drinks before setting off on a journey can be deadly.
It urges everyone to THINK! before drinking and driving and highlights how a second drink can double the chance of being in a fatal collision.
New research from Department for Transport campaign group THINK! shows that while half the population (51%) would not consider consuming any alcoholic drinks before driving, one in 10 people (10%) would consider having two or more drinks before getting behind the wheel. The figure increases to one in five among men aged 18 to 34 (19%).
