The Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) - the UK's largest police service with over 46,000 officers and staff - has awarded Jaama a fleet management software contract for up to ten years.
The MPS’s fleet of over 5,000 vehicles spanning front-line response cars, armed response units, prisoner transportation and forensic support vehicles cover more than 52 million miles a year across Greater London, with many assets requiring significant specialist conversion to meet the demands of operational policing.
Jaama will provide MPS with its Key2 fleet and workshop management software platform, delivering an integrated approach to managing the complex fleet.
Ben Joce, SRO for the Programme and Head of Solutions Services within MPS, has said: “This award marks the next step in our digital transformation across Business Services, ensuring our officers and staff are supported with the right tools to do their jobs effectively. It also reflects our commitment to delivering better value for money by improving efficiency, insight and operational control across our fleet. I am pleased that Jaama will be joining us on this journey.”
Andrew Holgate, Chief Executive Officer at Jaama, says: "We are proud to have been selected by the Metropolitan Police Service to support one of the UK's most complex and important public sector fleets. MPS’s requirements are demanding, operationally critical and highly specialised. That is exactly the type of environment Key2 was built to support. Winning a fleet of this complexity reflects the twenty years we have spent supporting large and complex fleets across leasing, rental, corporate and public sector operations. I want to thank our team for the work that went into the tender process. We now look forward to a long-term partnership with the Met, built on the service, delivery and trust that a force responsible for policing London should expect."
This investment is about much more than fleet management software; it is about ensuring we have the information and operational control needed to maximise availability, improve utilisation, and deliver better value from every vehicle we operate. At a time when every pound of public money matters, we want to ensure every penny spent contributes to better outcomes for London, and this partnership provides a strong foundation to help us achieve that.”
