Compliance reviews
Systems audits covering maintenance, drivers’ hours, licensing and operator licence undertakings.
Transport sector consultancy
Specialist advice that gets to the core of operator challenges — from compliance systems to public inquiries.
Clarity when the stakes are high
Fylex Group supports commercial and passenger operators with practical consultancy grounded in real industry experience. Whether you run a regional fleet or a multi-depot network, we help you strengthen systems, prepare for scrutiny and build lasting operational resilience.
Our consultants work with Transport Managers, directors and compliance leads to diagnose risk early, prioritise action and leave your team with processes that stand up to DVSA and Traffic Commissioner expectations.
How we work
We partner from board level to the depot floor — diagnosing issues quickly, recommending proportionate action, and staying alongside you while change takes hold. Engagements typically begin with a scoped discovery call, followed by on-site or remote review, written findings and a clear implementation roadmap.
- Bespoke reviews tailored to your fleet size, licence type and risk profile
- Clear written findings with prioritised, practical recommendations
- Hands-on support through implementation, training and follow-up audits
- Discrete guidance for sensitive regulatory and inquiry matters
- Board-ready reporting that translates compliance into commercial confidence
Compliance & systems reviews
We examine the systems that protect your operator licence: maintenance planning, defect reporting, drivers’ hours and WTD controls, driver CPC records, recruitment and induction, and the undertakings attached to your licence. You receive a ranked action plan, not a generic checklist.
Governance & strategic development
Strong governance keeps Transport Managers supported and directors informed. We help design reporting lines, KPI packs, escalation routes and management meeting structures so compliance is visible at every level — including during growth, acquisition or fleet change programmes.
Investigations, inquiries & appeals
When DVSA investigators are involved or a public inquiry is listed, preparation matters. We support evidence collation, witness readiness, remediation planning and hearing strategy, and we can guide you through statutory guidance and appeal pathways where decisions need challenging.
Who this is for
- Goods and passenger operators seeking an independent compliance health-check
- Businesses preparing for DVSA engagement or Traffic Commissioner scrutiny
- Groups integrating new depots, licences or Transport Managers
- Directors who need assurance that systems match stated undertakings
