GRT Road Transport Consultants
We are management consultants providing expert operator licencing compliance advice to operator licence holders in Scotland. With vast experience in goods vehicle operator licencing, we can advise on your requirements and help you acquire your licence to get you on the road as quickly and efficiently as possible.

The transport industry is one of the most heavily regulated in the UK and staying on top of complicated legislation can be challenging. Our operator support services are here to help you remain compliant. We have a range of training courses aimed towards drivers and those working in a transport environment including Driver CPC, ADR, OLAT training and operator management workshops.
Services
GRT is a management consultancy specialising in advising commercial vehicle operators on their operator licencing requirements. Founded over 20 years ago, we advise a number of clients, ranging from small transport enterprises to large nationwide organisations, with regards to enforcement and compliance issues.
Are you thinking of starting a business that requires the use of vehicles above 3.5 tonnes? Or perhaps your business can no longer sustain using smaller vans or trucks to transport materials from A to B and larger vehicles are required? To apply for an operator licence can be a time-consuming and error-strewn process especially if you're new to the world of operating commercial vehicles.
We advise businesses based in Scotland involved directly or indirectly in transport on the legal requirements of operating vehicles above 3.5 tonnes. Operator licence compliance is a crucial component for all companies holding an operator licence, even those who only operate vehicles as an ancillary part of their business.
Operator licence financial standing levels are adjusted on an annual basis. For example, if you apply for a three vehicle licence, you must have available resources of 16,900. For Restricted licences, you must show 3,100 for the first vehicle and 1,700 for each additional vehicle. Again, as an example, a two vehicle licence would require financial standing of 4,800.

Report
Small 'Covid safe' environment with social distancing in place and plenty of opportunities to interact due to small numbers. Kenny Reid did a fantastic job of making the ADR regs relevant to the real world and explaining concepts in a clear and concise manner. Very knowledgeable guy! Great prices with lunch included - thanks Scott! In all honesty, I don't believe I would use another provider (even if they were on my doorstep) for the training they offer and would encourage others to give them a try. Thoroughly recommended.

I was thoroughly impressed with this course and its facilities.
FACILITIES - a very pleasant, good sized classroom with good lightning condusive to concentration and learning.
Pen and notepaper provided
Tea and coffee facilities, fresh fruit, snacks and lunch provided.
INSTRUCTOR - Graeme was clearly very knowledgeable about this subject. He not only explained in a detailed but clearly understandable way, he was also able to answer every question thrown at him and actively encouraged participation. Rather than PowerPoint overdose it felt more like discussions.

GRT are fantastic in their field. Scott keeps you in in loop with the whole process. He helped us at the start when setting up and then when we made a variation.
Highly recommend the work that they do.

I can't recommend GRT enough for Driver CPC training. Graham delivers the modules in a very professional and interesting manner and makes time for Q & A's at the end of each day.
The admin support from Scott is also excellent.
I will always use GRT for my training needs.
Thanks as always. Andy K
