If you operate buses, coaches or minibuses under a PSV (PCV) operator licence, appointing the right PSV Transport Manager is one of the most important decisions you will make. Your Transport Manager is responsible for “continuous and effective” oversight of your passenger transport operation — protecting your O-Licence, improving safety standards, and keeping your business audit-ready.

Logan Logistics provides UK-wide PSV Transport Manager support for operators who need help to obtain an operator licence, stabilise compliance, or improve systems before a DVSA or Traffic Commissioner review. We align your operation with the expectations set out in Statutory Document No. 3 and the PSV operator licensing guidance.

Who needs a PSV Transport Manager?

Most PSV standard licence operators must have a professionally competent Transport Manager (Passenger Transport CPC) approved and listed on the licence. GOV.UK guidance explains the requirement to be qualified and added to an operator’s licence, with approval by the Traffic Commissioner before starting.

What we do for PSV operators

• Licence support: guidance on the Transport Manager nomination, evidence packs, and readiness checks to reduce delays.
• Compliance systems: simple, workable processes for maintenance control, defect reporting, record keeping, and management oversight.
• Performance monitoring: regular reviews of vehicle and driver compliance indicators, escalation of risks, and corrective action plans.
• Audit readiness: mock audit preparation, document standardisation, and clear monthly reporting so you can demonstrate effective management.
• Practical support: site visits (where required), remote oversight, and straightforward action lists your team can follow.

Why Logan Logistics

Competitor pages often stay generic. We focus specifically on PSV realities: passenger safety expectations, operational discipline, and demonstrable management control. You get a Transport Manager partner who helps you build evidence of effective oversight — not just “advice”.
