Stevenage MP Stephen McPartland has visited Drive Software Solutions, which has become one of the Hertfordshire town’s biggest export successes.
The firm has seen its workforce double in size to keep pace with demand over the past 3 years.
Chief executive Andrew Burns said, “On behalf of the whole team I am very pleased to welcome Stephen to our head office and to introduce him to the people who are helping to develop the technology which is being used by some of the leading companies around the world to make their vehicle fleets run more efficiently.”
Talking to some of the 60 staff at Drive Software Solutions, McPartland was keen to hear about how the system that Drive Software Solutions have created for managing large fleets of cars, trucks and vans has been sold to some of the largest vehicle leasing companies and fleet operators not only in the UK, but also across Europe, Australia and North America.
McPartland said, "I would like to congratulate Andrew Burns and his team at Drive Software Solutions on what is a real success story for Stevenage and the UK economy. The firm has seen an opportunity to use technology to help large vehicle fleets run more efficiently which is not only great news, but has given them a world leading product that is bringing millions of pounds of export sales for the UK and more highly skilled jobs to Stevenage. I am proud that our area continues to lead the UK economic recovery."
