Two Types of Compliance Audit
HGV Compliance provides two distinct types of independent compliance audit, depending on why your operation needs one.
Traffic Commissioner / regulatory compliance audit — for operators who have been directed or required to obtain an independent compliance audit, for example where an audit forms part of an undertaking or requirement following regulatory scrutiny, a DVSA investigation or a Public Inquiry. Not every investigation or inquiry leads to an audit requirement. We help you prepare, review the evidence and deliver the audit and report within the agreed scope. We cannot promise any regulatory outcome.
Voluntary operator compliance audit — for operators who are not currently facing regulatory action but want an independent 'fresh pair of eyes'. A practical health check of your systems, records and day-to-day operation, with prioritised findings and improvement actions.
What an Audit Can Cover
- Maintenance planning, safety inspections and defect reporting
- Drivers' hours and tachograph records and management checks
- Driver licence, qualification and induction records
- Management controls, policies and how they work in practice
- Evidence review and reporting within an agreed audit scope
- Prioritised findings with practical improvement actions
Who This Is For
- Operators required to obtain an independent compliance audit
- Operators wanting a voluntary health check before any regulatory attention
- New transport managers taking on an existing operation
- Businesses that have grown quickly and outgrown old systems
