TruTrac launches new compliance tool for van and LCV operators

TruTac has launched a new compliance tool to enable van operators to comply with Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) best practice and operating guidelines.

TruVan is a new product that includes an app and web-based ‘back-office’ management system to enable van fleet operators to comply with DVSA best practice and operating guidelines while managing their fleet.

From May 21, 2022, all van operators (or cars with trailers) over 2.5 tonnes, based in England, Scotland and Wales, require a standard international goods vehicle operator licence (O-licence) to transport goods for hire or reward in the EU, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland.

Jemma James, managing director at TruTac, said: “TruVan is a unique software product which simplifies compliance and full fleet management by providing a one stop shop to help keep van operators legal while saving time and money.

“The system is designed as a modular system, within a single portal and has the built-in flexibility to grow with each individual business.”

TruVan modules include clocking for hours and timesheet control, GPS location-tagged app, walkaround checks with DVSA templates, configurable templates with accident reporting, compliance best practice, driver licence DVLA checks and vehicle maintenance and planning - all of which come with online document management and storage for full and complete audit trail.

TruTac said early adopter discounts of 20% are available for anyone who signs up before August 1, 2022.

You can apply for your operator licence now on GOV.UK.
