Press Release

Tachographs remain central to transport compliance, and for years operators have been using Convey’s web-based system to turn tachograph data into something more useful than record-keeping. By making information accessible in one place, the system gives managers a clearer view of their fleets and the confidence to act on what the data shows.

 

Support that makes the difference

Technology alone is not enough to keep fleets compliant. Operators often say the difference comes from having support they can rely on. Convey’s UK-based team understand both the software and the realities of transport compliance, and are available at the end of the phone to give customers the support they need.

As Nick Thomson at Bishopsgate Logistics explained: “Convey isn’t one of those companies where you log a ticket and wait days for a reply – they’re responsive, supportive, and always happy to help. The support has been exemplary.”

 

Proof in practice

This kind of support, combined with the system itself, has already made a measurable difference for operators. Bishopsgate Logistics is one example.

The company had been relying on a mix of manual systems across five depots, which made it difficult to keep compliance consistent. Moving to Convey’s platform transformed that process.

Compliance Manager Nick Thomson said:
“What used to take a month now takes minutes. I can spot issues across sites in seconds, whether it’s outstanding defects or missing mileage. We’ve now got full visibility across all depots. I don’t have to chase anyone for information – I can actually do things properly.”

The change also encouraged drivers to engage more with their own performance, reduced infringements, and made audits smoother. Nick added, “The auditor actually said it was brilliant. There was no hiding anything – it built trust right away.”

From data to improvement

Tachograph analysis offers more than just a record of hours and rest breaks. Used well, it helps managers plan workloads, prepare for audits and spot trends early. Patterns such as repeat infringements, missing mileage or changes in driving behaviour stand out in the data, giving operators the chance to intervene before small issues grow into bigger risks.

With everything in one place, managers can see where pressure points are building across depots, understand how drivers are performing, and keep accurate records ready for inspections.

For drivers, regular feedback helps reduce repeat mistakes and builds confidence that they are working within the rules. The same data can also highlight concerns linked to fatigue or stress, turning tachograph analysis into a tool that supports both compliance and driver wellbeing.

 

Linked modules for wider benefits

Alongside tachograph analysis, Convey includes additional modules at no extra cost to help operators act on the information they see:

• The Performance module gives drivers instant feedback to help cut down on repeat infringements.
• The Training module brings CPC and ADR records together in one place.
• The Earned Recognition module lets operators measure themselves against DVSA KPIs, even before joining the scheme.

Convey is accredited by the DVSA for both Driver and Vehicle Maintenance systems, which means operators can demonstrate compliance against recognised standards with confidence.

 

Looking ahead

With compliance standards becoming more demanding and margins tight, tachograph analysis is playing a bigger role in helping operators manage both.

By bringing together clear data, linked modules such as Performance, Training and Earned Recognition, and dependable UK-based support, Convey helps operators stay audit-ready, reduce risk, and maintain high standards across their fleets.

Effective use of tachograph data is no longer just about meeting legal requirements. It is about giving operators the tools and confidence to keep drivers safe, fleets compliant, and businesses prepared for the future.
