Ensuring Record Accuracy and Completeness
DVSA investigations hinge heavily on meticulous record-keeping. Our audits delve into your documentation practices, ensuring tachograph records, driver logbooks, vehicle fleet maintenance files, accident reporting, and personnel training records meet exacting standards set by regulatory authorities.
Vehicle Maintenance and Roadworthiness
Vehicle safety depends on rigorous, documented maintenance procedures. We thoroughly scrutinise your fleet’s servicing, inspection schedules, repair histories, and compliance with statutory requirements to prevent costly breakdowns and enforcement penalties.
Driver Compliance and Performance Monitoring
Driver records are central to compliance audits. We verify tachograph integrity, drivers’ hours adherence, Driver CPC certification status, and training completeness to ensure drivers meet all regulatory obligations, reducing the risk of non-compliance citations.
Licence and Insurance Legitimacy
Our audits include a detailed verification of your Operator Licence status, insurance certificates, permits, and any conditions or variations attached by the Traffic Commissioner. This holistic approach ensures all legal permissions are valid and up-to-date.
Emergency Procedures and Environmental Responsibility
We assess whether you have implemented effective emergency protocols and have measures in place to limit your fleet’s environmental impact, supporting sustainable and responsible transport operations.
Financial and Management Controls
Efficient financial and operational management is critical for compliance. Our audit evaluates fuel management strategies, route optimisation, record transparency, and internal controls ensuring your business not only complies but thrives operationally.
Operator Compliance Risk Score (OCRS) Remediation
If your OCRS rating is currently red or amber, our expert audits provide actionable insight to resolve compliance gaps. We support you with a structured plan to work with DVSA expectations and improve your operability score to green, reducing inspection frequency and regulatory pressures.
Handling DVSA Desk-Based Assessments and Hearings
Be confident when facing a DVSA Desk-Based Assessment or driver conduct hearing. Our audits supply the evidence and corrective action plans sought by regulators, helping you resolve issues and demonstrate responsible management practices.
