Logistics Compliance Challenges
Logistics operations manage compliance across drivers, vehicles, warehouse equipment and multiple sites — all with a workforce that is largely mobile. These are the challenges we see most consistently.
CPC qualifications, licence endorsement checks and medical declarations expire on different dates across different drivers. Without a central system, it is easy to miss renewals — with potentially serious consequences for your operator licence.
LOLER examinations for fork-lift trucks, thorough examination records for racking and PUWER inspections for warehouse equipment are frequently held in paper files or separate systems — making it difficult to demonstrate compliance during a site visit.
Logistics businesses with multiple depots often have no consistent, cross-site view of training compliance, outstanding actions or incident trends. Each site operates independently, and management oversight relies on manual reporting.

FAQs
UK logistics businesses must comply with the Health and Safety at Work Act, Manual Handling Operations Regulations, Working Time Regulations, RIDDOR, COSHH, PUWER, LOLER, and sector-specific requirements including vehicle inspection obligations. Where relevant, the Road Transport Directive applies to drivers' working hours. Warehouse operations carry additional obligations for racking inspections, fork-lift management and pedestrian segregation.
The Training and Competency module records driver licences, CPC qualification status, DCPC training hours, medical declarations and any additional endorsements or specialisations. Expiry dates are tracked automatically and alerts sent before renewals fall due — giving transport managers clear advance warning to arrange renewals without disruption to operations.
