Initially Driving Monitor was deployed to develop a bespoke driver risk management programme tailored to our specific needs. Their tailored approach has enabled us to achieve a consistently high level of compliance across all employees who drive on behalf of United Biscuits, significantly reducing our risk levels. The added benefit of reducing our risks was negotiating a more competitive annual insurance premium for our fleet vehicles.

“What first impressed me about Driving Monitor was the knowledge and experience of their staff. They helped us to understand how to achieve high standards of driver safety through adopting a structured approach to training. Since then our association with Driving Monitor has been on-going – from Driver Training initiatives and Awareness Seminars to ‘in-cab’ on-the-road training. As a result we can honestly say that year by year we’ve seen our vehicle accident rates reduced thanks to the expert help provided by Driving Monitor.”

Key Benefits of Driving Monitor for United Biscuits:

• All driver’s risk assessed meaning we get a clear picture of all risks across the fleet.
• Instant DVLA checks keep us informed of any driver issues in real time.
• Accident monitoring & in-vehicle training help us proactively reduce risk.
• Centralised driver data keeps everything in one place, streamlining operations.
• Line manager visibility has driven compliance rates higher across the board.
• Seamless onboarding & lifetime monitoring ensure risk is managed continuously.

At first, the project focused on pulling together accident data and centralising driver risk management into one easy-to-use platform. Since then, the system has grown to take care of daily operations, making risk assessments faster and cutting down the admin work needed to stay compliant.

One of the biggest wins has been managing our Grey Fleet drivers – employees who use their own cars for work. The platform now automatically checks key compliance details like tax, insurance, and MOT status. This has solved the challenge of tracking these drivers and given us a clear, accurate view of compliance. Now, we can be sure every driver meets all safety and legal standards.

Our partnership with Driving Monitor keeps getting stronger. Together, we’re committed to the highest levels of driver safety and compliance. Their smart technology and top-notch customer support have been key in building a safer driving culture at United Biscuits. We’re excited to keep working with them to push safety standards even higher and reduce risks even further.
