Worried About a DVSA Desk-Based Assessment (DBA)?
A DBA involves the DVSA reviewing your company’s records, compliance systems, and operational procedures to ensure your Operator Licence is properly managed. Failing may lead to fines, warnings, or licence suspension. Proactive independent audits identify and rectify gaps in driver compliance, vehicle maintenance, record keeping, and transport management.
A recent audit demonstrates to the DVSA that your business is compliant and well-managed, reducing enforcement likelihood and helping you avoid DBA calls altogether.
Reasons You Might Be Called for a DBA:
- Incomplete or inconsistent records including tachograph logs and vehicle maintenance reports.
- Previous compliance issues flagged by DVSA or Traffic Commissioner enforcement actions.
- Licence applications or renewals requiring confirmation of safe and legal operations.
- Driver management concerns due to repeated hours breaches or inadequate training.
- Complaints or reports about vehicle safety, roadworthiness, or driver behaviour.
- Risk profiling by DVSA identifying operators with higher non-compliance risk.
