Protect your clients.
Lighten your load.

The BFT TM Partnership Programme gives CPC-qualified Transport Managers a way to introduce their clients to structured, audit-ready compliance management — and earn commission for every client who comes on board.
Commission paid across the first four months of your client's active subscription. All figures ex-VAT.
Your clients' disorganisation is your burden.
You carry the professional responsibility for compliance across every licence you manage. When their records are missing, their driver files incomplete, their PMI certificates unlogged — it is your name on that licence.
A disorganised operator is a compliance risk. And a compliance risk held by a named Transport Manager is a risk to that TM's CPC, their professional standing, and their ability to take on further licences.
"Between driver files, PMIs, tachograph records, and training logs — the paperwork alone across multiple operators can consume the hours that should be spent on hands-on compliance work."
"Traffic Commissioners are scrutinising Transport Manager compliance more closely than at any point in the past decade. Named TMs are being called to answer for systemic failures in their operators' records."
"When your client is organised, your job gets easier. Structured records. Fewer calls. More time for the compliance work that requires your expertise."
Three tiers. Every operator covered.

What this means for you as their TM
The Vault does not replace your role. It empowers it. Here is what changes when your clients are on BFT Vault.
Structured, digital compliance records. When you arrive at a client site or conduct a remote review, the records you need are there, organised, and current.
The platform handles the administration. You handle the compliance judgement that requires a CPC-qualified TM. More time for operations, driver teams, and training.
A client on BFT Vault is significantly less likely to fail a DVSA inspection or attract TC scrutiny due to disorganised records. Your CPC is protected.
Identify compliance patterns, monitor trends, and make informed decisions with organised data — not memory and manual files.
BFT manages their compliance platform. You manage the operator relationship. Any additional services are discussed with your knowledge and involvement.
Refer a client and earn the equivalent of their first two months' subscription across four monthly payments. Bronze, Silver, or Gold — you earn to the level they join.
The enforcement landscape is changing.
Four reasons why now is the right moment to introduce your clients to structured compliance management.
Roadside encounters, targeted audits, and operator complaints to the Traffic Commissioner are all on a trajectory that makes organised, audit-ready compliance records a necessity — not an optional extra.
Named Transport Managers are being called to answer for systemic failures in their operators' records. That exposure is real and growing. Organised clients mean reduced risk to your professional standing.
In April 2026, a Traffic Commissioner accepted BFT Vault Gold as a 24-month undertaking in Public Inquiry proceedings — in lieu of any regulatory action. The first structured compliance product accepted by a TC in this way. This is not a marketing claim. It is a regulatory outcome on the public record.
Launched January 2026, BFT Vault is an active compliance management platform — not a concept. Your clients can be set up in two days with their first compliance report within four weeks.
Watch how BFT Vault works for your clients.
Two minutes. Everything your client needs to understand what BFT Vault does — and why it protects their compliance position.
Earn to the level your client joins.
BFT keeps the client's first month in full. From month 2, BFT pays you 50% of the base monthly fee — four equal monthly payments, running months 2 through 5. Total commission equals two months' base fee per referral.
| Tier | Client Monthly Fee | Total Commission | Per Month (×4) | Paid Months |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bronze — Evidence Vault | £125 p/m + VAT | £250 | £62.50 | Months 2–5 |
| Silver — Audit Guardian | £325 p/m + VAT | £650 | £162.50 | Months 2–5 |
| Gold — Executive Shield | £575 p/m + VAT | £1,150 | £287.50 | Months 2–5 |
All commission figures are exclusive of VAT. BFT retains month 1 in full. Commission payments run monthly, months 2–5, via BACS — self-billed by BFT. No invoicing required on your side. If the client cancels before all four payments are made, remaining instalments cease at cancellation.
How to refer. Simple.
Five minutes from your end. BFT manages everything from there.
Contact BFT by email or complete the simple online referral form. Register your interest and receive your partner details. Takes less than five minutes.
Email BFT with the client's company name and contact person details — or complete the referral form. Three fields. Under sixty seconds.
We contact your client, mention your introduction, and manage the sign-up process. You are kept informed throughout. Your relationship with your client is protected.
Your client activates their BFT Vault subscription — set up in two days, first report within four weeks. Your referral is confirmed.
Commission is paid monthly across the client's first four months on the platform. Directly to you. No delays. No hidden conditions.
Fair, transparent, and simple.
Six principles that govern the partnership. No small print surprises.
A referral is valid for three months from submission. If the client signs up within that window, commission is payable. If they do not, the referral lapses.
If a client later signs up independently — without your active involvement as their TM — no commission is payable. The connection must be live at the point of sign-up.
BFT retains the client's first month in full. From month 2, BFT pays you 50% of the base monthly fee via BACS — four payments, no invoicing required. If the client cancels, remaining payments cease.
The commission period covers months one to four. After that, you retain the professional benefit of a well-managed, organised client.
BFT does not require TMs to stop recommending other products or services. This is a professional partnership — not a contract of control.
BFT will not approach your client independently for additional services without your knowledge and involvement. Your relationship stays yours.
