A genuine External TM appointment is active management — not simply the use of a CPC certificate.
The Transport Manager needs enough access, authority and time to genuinely influence compliance. Fleet Integrity's approach is built around regular review, direct access to records and documented follow-up.
Drivers' hours, Working Time, infringement trends, missing mileage, cardless driving and licence/CPC checks.
PMIs, brake tests, defects, MOTs, calibrations, VOR decisions and maintenance evidence.
Undertakings, operating centre arrangements, policies, training, action logs and compliance reporting.
Understand the operator, history, work, vehicle setup, maintenance and compliance attitude.
Set expectations around access, time, records, driver instruction and VOR authority.
Set up planners, tachograph access, driver records, action logs and reporting.
Review, act, follow up and retain evidence of the management being carried out.
Send the vehicle numbers, licence type, operating location and a brief outline of the work. Fleet Integrity will review whether the appointment is a suitable fit.
