Jaama boosts driver licence checking to deliver outsourced solution

9 February 2010

 Fleet software and risk management specialist Jaama has launched what it says is a unique fully outsourced driver licence checking service for users of its online vehicle management software.

The upgrade to Jaama’s current driver licence checking service with the DVLA is expected to ease the administration for fleet decision-makers as they battle to reduce their employers’ risk exposure to at-work driving.

Although some specialist driver licence checking companies already offer a fully outsourced service, the weakness of their offering, according to Jaama, is that they don’t provide fleet management software so the licence information gleaned from DVLA records cannot be collated with other vital information such as driving patterns, fuel consumption and vehicle usage, especially if the driver frequently changes vehicles.
