How much time does an external transport manager need to commit?
The required time commitment depends on the size, complexity and risk profile of each operation. Expectations are set by the Office of the Traffic Commissioner and focus on whether the transport manager can demonstrate genuine, ongoing control of the operation.
Time must be sufficient to allow for regular involvement in vehicle maintenance systems, driver compliance, training oversight, record keeping and site visits. Larger or more complex fleets require a greater level of input than smaller operations.
We assess this carefully before providing support and allocate appropriate time to each client to ensure compliance standards are met and inspections are handled confidently.
