Winner of best app in BusinessCar’s Techies Awards, Lex is set to introduce a quoting system similar to its desktop version along with other features.

“The driver will log on and then we can establish if it’s almost time to change their car, and if so, they can see the vehicle available to them within their company’s policy.”

The app will also increase the visibility that drivers have to other info: “We can provide them with key access to their vehicle’s tyres sizes, oil types, for example,” said Hook.

And there will be a mileage logging function too. “We are very keen that vehicles are serviced on a regular basis,” he explained.
