When you were granted your operator licence, you signed undertakings to the Traffic Commissioner. Not suggestions. Legal commitments. Fleetguard builds the evidence that proves you're keeping every one of them — and stands guard over your fleet so you never have to find out the hard way.
Most clients contact us on WhatsApp first. From £199/month.
DVSA's 2025–26 Business Plan confirms the continued expansion of remote enforcement capabilities across UK transport. Their own words:
"DVSA will continue to build on remote enforcement capabilities and utilise AI opportunities to automate processes and bring efficiencies to our systems."

Here is what DVSA can already access about your operation:
Every time your vehicle passes an ANPR camera, it's cross-referenced against the MOT and tax database instantly. An expired MOT flags before you're even stopped.
Full MOT history, tachograph records, and operator licence details are all accessible digitally. A pattern of missed deadlines is a red flag in any intelligence-led check.
Every prohibition your vehicles have received is on record. A history of prohibitions triggers targeted enforcement. One becomes two becomes a Traffic Commissioner hearing.
Fleetguard monitors every data point DVSA uses against you, and ensures it's clean before they check it. You stay compliant. You stay protected. You stay trading.
Free. No obligation. Just clarity on where you actually stand.
From 2025–26, DVSA is expanding remote enforcement capabilities across the UK. Restricted operators face increasing scrutiny — and the cost of poor compliance is rising.
Nearly 30,000 restricted licences. Most operators are exposed and don't know it.
Book Your Free DVSA Visit Simulation →Ditch the paper. Your drivers already do the walkaround, now they can record it in seconds, right from the cab, with no app and no login.
Most operators are still running paper-based walkaround checks. Forms get lost in glove boxes, filled in at the end of the day, or not filled in at all. That's a serious problem if DVSA come knocking. We take that problem away. A Fleetguard QR code sticker goes in every cab. Once your driver has completed their walkaround, they scan the code, tick through 8 simple questions on their phone, and hit submit. The record is timestamped at the moment of submission, stored automatically in your client portal, and retained for 15 months. If a defect is reported, you receive an alert by WhatsApp and email immediately. Not at 8am the next day, right now.
Drivers scan the QR code with their phone camera. The form opens instantly in the browser, nothing to download, nothing to log in to.
If a driver reports a defect, you receive an alert immediately, by WhatsApp and email. Nothing slips through. Every check is timestamped and stored.
Records are retained for 15 months, exactly what DVSA expect to see if they visit. Available in your portal at the click of a button.
There are plenty of systems that generate a compliance report. What they will not do is pick up the phone when DVSA make contact, tell you exactly what your drivers need before their next check, or build the documentation that protects your licence from scratch.
Fleetguard is not software you subscribe to and hope for the best. We are the team standing between you and the consequences of getting this wrong. CPC-qualified, industry-experienced, and in your corner from day one.
Neulla brings over 20 years in transport and is a CPC-qualified Transport Manager. Lee brings years of hands-on industry experience and is currently completing his Transport Manager CPC. Their names are on this business. They are accountable to you personally.
When something happens, you do not get a support ticket. You get a CPC-qualified professional who already knows your vehicles, your drivers, and your compliance history.
Our free Compliance Academy exists for operators who want to understand the rules behind the reminders. Your licence remains your responsibility. We give you the knowledge to carry it with confidence.
Fleetguard clients do not lie awake on Sunday night wondering if everything is in order. They already know. Because we told them on Monday morning.
Before you commit to any compliance service, ask one question:
If DVSA knocked on your door tomorrow, would they actually be there?
Join Fleetguard TodayWhen you were granted your operator licence, you signed undertakings to the Traffic Commissioner. Not suggestions. Not guidelines. Legal commitments. Every single one of them.
Undertaking 1: Vehicles will be maintained in a fit and roadworthy condition at all times
Undertaking 2: Maintenance records will be kept and made available to DVSA on request
Undertaking 3: Drivers will comply with driving hours regulations and tachograph requirements
Undertaking 4: Driver licences and entitlements will be checked and monitored regularly
Undertaking 5: The nominated Transport Manager will be continuously and effectively responsible for transport operations
Most restricted operators have signed all five commitments and have no system to prove they're keeping any of them.
“I checked when I remembered” is not a defence at a Traffic Commissioner Public Inquiry. And DVSA are not obliged to warn you before they visit.
Every month, Fleetguard produces a formal document showing exactly how you are meeting each undertaking you signed. Vehicles maintained and recorded. Driver hours monitored and reviewed. Licences checked. TM oversight exercised and evidenced. Dated. Filed. Ready to produce the moment anyone asks.
This document cannot come from Tachomaster. It cannot come from a spreadsheet. It can only come from Fleetguard.

Your tacho software shows you the data. Fleetguard tells you what it means. Every month we review your driver infringement data, categorise each violation by severity, tell you exactly what action to take per driver, and produce the management review record that DVSA look for. Software records it. We interpret it.
We know this world, because we've lived it
"We've spent our careers watching small operators lose their O-Licence over things that could have been caught in a weekly check. One missed MOT, one forgotten tacho card, and years of work gone. That's exactly why we built Fleetguard."
"DVSA doesn't warn you. They don't knock politely and say your MOT is overdue. By the time they find you, it's already too late. Our job is to make sure you're never in that position."
Monthly compliance alerts for restricted operators. Free. No spam. Just the updates that matter to your licence.

Fleetguard costs from £199/month. Here's what non-compliance costs.
Fleetguard Sentinel is a multi-stage AI compliance intelligence platform, purpose-built for restricted O-licence operators. It integrates regulatory monitoring, OCRS surveillance, predictive deadline intelligence, and the DVSA Transparency Protocol into a single connected system, with CPC-qualified professionals interpreting every output. No other compliance service in this market combines AI intelligence at this level with qualified human oversight behind it.
The goal is full transparency to DVSA. When their systems scan your operation, there is nothing to flag. Clean records. Nothing to find. You stay trading.
Fleetguard Sentinel monitors DVSA publications, Traffic Commissioner bulletins, and government transport policy every day. When something changes that affects your operation, you are told before it becomes a problem.
Fleetguard Sentinel actively tracks your OCRS score and flags any deterioration before it registers on DVSA's enforcement targeting systems. Your score stays clean. You stay off the list.
Fleetguard Sentinel does not just track expiry dates. It models your entire compliance calendar, identifying what is trending toward a problem before it becomes critical. Predictive, not reactive.
Every data point DVSA uses for remote profiling, MOT records, tachograph downloads, prohibition history, PMI schedules, kept clean, current, and enforcement-proof. You do not get targeted because there is nothing to target.
When new guidance is published, Fleetguard Sentinel assesses whether it affects your specific vehicles and drivers. Not generic industry news. Specific intelligence about your fleet, delivered directly.
Fleetguard Sentinel is the engine. Neulla and Lee are behind the wheel. Every alert is reviewed by a CPC-qualified Transport Manager who knows your operation. Technology and human expertise, working together.
Fleetguard Sentinel
Proprietary. Proven. Exclusively yours.
No other compliance service operates this system. Fleetguard Sentinel is built specifically for restricted operators and monitored by qualified professionals. You cannot get this anywhere else.
Traditional Transport Managers want 50-vehicle fleets. Compliance software is built for national hauliers. Nobody was serving YOU, until now.
MOT dates, service schedules, tacho calibrations, driver licenses, insurance expiries... When you're running a business, it's nearly impossible to stay on top of every deadline across every vehicle and driver.
You might have a list somewhere, but does it alert you 30 days before something expires? Does it flag when you're in the danger zone? Does anyone review it professionally?
Traditional external Transport Managers charge £600 to £1,600 per month, and they would rather manage a 50 vehicle fleet for that price. You are not their priority. We exist specifically for 1 to 10 vehicle operators.
One forgotten deadline can trigger a DVSA investigation that puts your entire operation at risk.
Weekly RAG reports, automated reminders, and simple oversight, so you never miss a deadline again
