How we can help
Find the gaps.Set clear priorities.
A compliance audit provides an independent view of whether the business’s systems are working and whether the records demonstrate effective control.
JRich Transport Consultancy can review the areas most relevant to your licence and produce a practical action plan that separates urgent risks from longer-term improvement.
- Operator Licence details, undertakings and responsibilities
- Transport Manager oversight and compliance monitoring
- Drivers’ hours, tachographs and working-time records
- Vehicle maintenance, inspections and defect reporting
- Driver licensing, training and document control
- Corrective action, follow-up and supporting evidence

Frequently asked questions
Compliance auditquestions.
The scope can be adjusted to the fleet, licence and reason for the review.
What does a transport compliance audit cover?
The scope can include operator licensing, Transport Manager control, maintenance, driver defect reporting, drivers’ hours, tachographs, training and the records used to evidence compliance.
Will an audit disrupt day-to-day work?
Some access to people, systems and records is needed, but the review can be planned to minimise disruption while still gathering enough evidence for meaningful findings.
What will we receive after the audit?
The intended output is a clear summary of findings and an action plan that identifies priorities, responsibilities and the evidence needed to close each point.
Can you review only one area of concern?
Yes. The review can focus on a particular issue, although connected systems may also need to be considered where they affect the reliability of the evidence.
Does passing an audit guarantee compliance?
No audit can guarantee future compliance. It provides a view based on the scope, records and conditions reviewed, and its value depends on acting on findings and continuing to monitor the systems.
See the Traffic Commissioners’ current operator audit guidance.
