Case Study: Bibby Distribution achieves 12% reduction in accidents and 11% improvement in fuel economy with Microlise

Using Telematics to Drive Health and Safety Culture

Bibby Distribution, a privately owned logistics group with more than 1,000 drivers, 1,500 trailers and 600 tractor units, faced the challenge of integrating disparate systems from multiple acquisitions while improving safety and operational consistency. To avoid a patchwork of incompatible technology and to prioritise health and safety, Bibby selected Microlise and its telematics and driver management solutions as a single system across the entire fleet.

Microlise deployed a dedicated specialist team and rolled out a unified telematics platform with simple reporting, driver scoring (A–G), weekly leaderboards and a linked driver training programme. As a result Bibby has seen measurable improvements: a 12% reduction in accidents, 11% better fuel economy, over 10% cut in CO2, a 39% reduction in RIDDORs and lower maintenance and lost-time incidents — outcomes Bibby attributes directly to Microlise.
