Compliance Audits

The Transport Manager CPC is a recognised qualification for anyone responsible for the management of HGV or PSV operations. You need it to meet the legal requirements for holding an Operator Licence.

What is a Transport Compliance Audit?

A Transport Compliance Audit is an in-depth review of your operation to ensure you meet the standards required under your Operator Licence. Our auditors assess your systems, procedures, and record-keeping to confirm that your business remains compliant with DVSA and Traffic Commissioner expectations.

Whether you operate HGVs, PSVs, or both, regular audits provide assurance that your transport activities remain safe, efficient, and legally compliant.

Why a Compliance Audit Matters

Compliance audits are a legal safeguard. They highlight areas of risk before they attract attention from the DVSA or Traffic Commissioner.

Audits help you:
  • Demonstrate compliance for your Operator Licence.
  • Identify weaknesses before they become issues.
  • Prepare for DVSA or public inquiries.
  • Improve safety, performance, and record accuracy.
All study materials, tutor support, and exam registration are included in the course fee.

Reporting and Outcomes

Following your audit, you’ll receive a detailed written report outlining:
  • Areas of full compliance
  • Issues or risks identified
  • Recommended actions to resolve them
Passing both leads to the Level 3 Certificate of Professional Competence in Passenger Transport, awarded by CILT (Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport) or OCR.

The qualification does not expire, though keeping your knowledge current with refresher training is recommended.
