Searle shares responsibility with the company’s transport operations manager for risk and compliance issues connected with the 350 independent garages that maintain the fleet.
Six compliance assessors and seven fleet managers work out in the field, checking the standard of repair and maintenance work carried out throughout the network.
In addition, the FTA makes twice-yearly vehicle inspections to monitor garage performance and the effectiveness of the company’s driver defect reporting system.
“Our MOT pass rate for CVs is 98%,” says Searle. “That reflects our pride in making sure the workshops get it right first time.”
