Get FORS-ready
Documents, a review and practical help in one place
FORS (the Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme) accreditation is about showing that your systems, procedures and records are in place and working. Many operators lose weeks writing documents from scratch. Our packs give you a professionally structured starting point that you tailor to your own operation.
If you would rather have someone look at what you already have, the remote micro-audit gives you an independent review of your documents and an honest view of where the gaps are. See the packs or read about the micro-audit.
- 71 risk assessments and 33 safe systems of work, with registers

Remote FORS micro-audit
Find the gaps before the audit does
A fixed-price remote review for operators preparing for FORS Bronze, Silver or Gold. You pay up front, we book a phone consultation, and then you send us your documents for review. There is no site visit and no waiting for an auditor’s diary.
It is an independent pre-audit review. It is not a FORS audit, it does not award accreditation, and it cannot guarantee a result. Its purpose is to show you where you stand and what to fix first.
- For operators applying for FORS for the first time
- For operators renewing or progressing to Silver or Gold
- For operators who have written their own documents and want an independent view

Questions
Frequently asked questions
What is the remote FORS micro-audit?
It is a fixed-price, remote pre-audit review. We talk through your operation by phone, then review the documents you send us and tell you what is in place, what is missing and what to fix first. It is not an official FORS audit.
Which FORS levels do the documents support?
They are general templates that help you prepare for FORS Bronze, Silver or Gold. Each level has its own requirements in the FORS Standard, so check the current requirements for your level and adapt the documents to your own operation. Our guide to FORS Bronze, Silver or Gold explains what each level adds and who typically needs which. If you work for construction clients, our guide to whether you need FORS to work on construction sites explains how FORS, CLOCS and the Direct Vision Standard fit together.
Are these official FORS documents?
No. FORS is a voluntary accreditation scheme and every operator must meet the FORS Standard in its own way. Our documents are independent templates that you tailor to your operation. They support your preparation but do not guarantee accreditation.
What do 12 months of updates mean?
If we revise a document during the 12 months after you buy, for example because legislation, guidance or best practice changes, we will make the updated version available to you at no extra cost.
How are the packs delivered?
As soon as your payment is confirmed you are taken to a download page, and the same links are emailed to the address you use at checkout, usually within a few minutes. Each link lasts 7 days and can be used up to 5 times, so please download and save your files straight away. If a link expires, email us and we will send a new one. If the email does not arrive, check your junk folder.
Can I use the documents for more than one company?
Each pack is licensed for use within one company. You may edit the documents and use them in your own business, but you may not resell, share or publish them. If you operate several companies, contact us about a group licence.
Can you add my logo and company details?
Yes. We can supply customised versions with your company name, logo and details applied. Get in touch to discuss what you need.
Is this legal advice?
No. The packs and the micro-audit provide general guidance. Law and guidance change, so check the current position and your own circumstances before relying on any document. See also our shop terms.
Do you charge VAT?
Prices are in pounds sterling and no VAT is added.
Important
