The technology, which went live in December, enables Stephens Scown’s employees to compete in leagues to help incentivise and encourage better driving.

The firm’s drivers have already achieved an average score of 88%, with its Exeter-based drivers reaching a score of 92% – this puts them in the Elite Drivers league, reserved for those achieving a score of 85% and above and bringing about benefits such as increased safety, reduced fuel consumption and less vehicle wear and tear.

Jaime Thornton, office manager for Stephens Scown in Exeter, commented: “It is clear that Lightfoot focuses on the wellbeing of the driver and we have already started to see its benefits, such as improved safety and great cost reductions. We look forward to a continued partnership with Lightfoot as we work to make Stephens Scown even more sustainable.”
