ROCKINGHAM REVAMPS CORPORATE OFFERING
Ben Peters of RoadWise
NEW PARTNERSHIP FOR ROADWISE
A firm that uses the latest technology to transform its clients’ fleets into their driving force has won an important new contract. RoadWise, which offers
end-to-end driver performance solutions, is now working with one of London’s premier road haulage companies, Premier Palletised Ltd (PPL). PPL has more than 40
vehicles and Roadwise has been invited to execute a data integration programme for the firm to assist with the management of its fleet. RoadWise director Ben
Peters said: “We’re really excited to announce the start of our new partnership with PPL. This is one of the biggest contracts we have taken on and it took us a few months to get to the point of signing the contract. “We will provide PPL with a
data management platform which integrates data from their two telematics systems, vehicle check app, fuel cards, insurance claims, tachograph and delivery management system. “Our solution will provide
PPL with a single platform to view their mission critical data. It will help the firm to measure driver performance, improve driver safety, reduce accidents and cut the running costs of their fleet. By helping them to reduce their fuel consumption we will also enable them to improve their green credentials further. “Through the RoadWise
Rewards App, data will also be used to engage, incentivise and reward PPL drivers. “This is not just about
providing hardware products, it’s about making data useful for our clients.”

Castle has entertained royalty and private guests within its ancient walls, and businesses continually tell us what an exceptional setting we have to offer. We will be maximising on this unique selling point in 2020 – welcoming a new member to our events team so that businesses get an even better level of service, and making the information clearer on our website so that people can see what we offer.
