NHVAS, HVNL and Keeping Heavy Vehicles on the Road

The framework

Heavy vehicles operate under the Heavy Vehicle National Law (HVNL) and the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR). Operators can hold accreditation under the National Heavy Vehicle Accreditation Scheme (NHVAS), including a maintenance management module with its own schedule.

The stakes

Falling behind can lead to fines, loss of accreditation, vehicles taken off the road, downtime, lost contracts and reputational damage. Compliance is cheaper than the consequence.

Where an AIS fits

As an Approved Inspection Station, we issue heavy-vehicle safety certificates and support NHVR, HVNL and NHVAS maintenance schedules — and because we're a full workshop, a fail gets repaired and re-checked in one place.

Stay ahead

Fold inspections and certificates into a preventative maintenance program so nothing lapses. It's the simplest way to keep a fleet legal and earning.
