BFT VAULT – AUDIT GUARDIAN

Monthly Expert Protection. Sleep better knowing someone's checking your compliance.

The sweet spot for growing fleets. A real compliance expert reviews your vault every month, spots problems before DVSA does, and sends exception alerts when deadlines are approaching or issues arise. Everything in the Evidence Vault, plus the professional oversight that catches problems before they become crises.

We know...

Compliance is more than storage – it requires continuous monitoring. When you're busy running vehicles, managing drivers, and winning contracts, compliance issues can slip through unnoticed until DVSA comes knocking.

Missing PMIs, overdue brake tests, expired calibration certificates – these problems compound silently until they trigger an investigation, a prohibition, or worse: a Public Inquiry.

Common Failings We Help Prevent:

  • Delayed or incomplete inspection records
  • Expired tachograph calibrations you didn't notice
  • Out-of-date MOTs and insurance certificates
  • Missing driver licence checks and DDI evidence
  • Infringement thresholds breached without warning

These small oversights create big problems when DVSA investigates – and by then, it's often too late to fix.

The Audit Guardian Solution

The Audit Guardian combines secure digital storage with monthly expert monitoring and exception reporting. A real compliance professional reviews your vault every month, spots problems before they escalate, and alerts you when action is needed.

You stay informed. You receive alerts before issues escalate. You correct problems early – avoiding unnecessary enforcement action.

We take care of compliance so you can focus on your business.

"Before working with BFT, I struggled to keep on top of changing compliance requirements. It felt like I was always one step behind... Now it is a huge relief. I can finally focus on running and growing the business."
– Masud, Director, The Taxi People Limited
