In order to keep up to date with changes in technology and best practice, the FORS Standard is reviewed, updated and approved on a two-year cycle by the FORS Governance and Standards Advisory Group. The current Standard is version 5.1, came into effect on 1 July 2020 to introduce immersive interactive learning as an option to meet ‘S5 Professional development’. Version 6.0 of the Standard was published on 19 October 2021, with implementation on 1 July 2022.

No, the scope of accreditation can be for a specific operating centre but must be for all vehicles at the specific operating centre audited.

Your vehicles do not need to be available on the day of the audit. If you are proven to have provided false information during the audit, your accreditation will be terminated as per the FORS Terms and Conditions and FORS Enforcement and Compliance guidance.

FORS Standard vehicle safety equipment requirement requires operators to fit vehicles over 3.5 tonnes gross vehicle weight with blind spot warning signage. FORS guidance is that the signage should not give instruction or direction to other road users. Acceptable signage for example is: ‘Blindspot – Take Care’. For more guidance as to the signage approved by FORS, please click here.

Please email the FORS Helpline team on enquiries@fors-online.org.uk.

No, offences against an individual (eg speeding fines) do not need to be reported. However, complaints and offences against the company (eg Traffic Commissioner Public Inquiry) should be reported to FORS and recorded within your complaints system to ensure that any legal and non-legal actions against your company are reviewed and reacted to in order to prevent recurrence. For more information on this, please check the FORS T&Cs and the FORS Compliance and Enforcement Guide here.

All vehicles at an operating centre used for servicing and delivery must be registered and will fall under the scope of FORS accreditation – this includes: HGVs, vans, passenger carrying vehicles, cars, powered-two-wheelers (motorcycles and mopeds) and wheeled plant.

Cars and P2Ws are optional unless they are used as the core business function eg delivery company. Car-derived vans however must be declared.

No, you can choose which operating centre(s) to include in your FORS accreditation but all vehicles used for servicing and delivery in the chosen operating centre(s) must be included in the scope of accreditation (as detailed above.) For information on accrediting single or multiple operating centres, please check the FORS Rules and Procedures.

If the cars in your fleet are used for servicing and delivery, then they must be included in your FORS scope of accreditation. You will need to update FORS with fleet details PRIOR to re-approval audit and include any cars if appropriate.

Version 5 of the FORS Standard includes P2Ws in its effort to increase levels of best practice across the whole industry. This means that if the P2Ws in your fleet are used as core purpose of your business, then they must be declared, for example a pizza delivery company. Since 14 January 2019, existing members have been required to update FORS with fleet details PRIOR to re-approval audit and include any P2Ws if appropriate. New members will need to declare P2Ws from the onset when registering with FORS.

This does NOT however include, for example, earth moving machinery, excavators, hoists, elevating work platforms, reach stackers and fork lifts.

For information on FORS accreditation routes please check the Rules and Procedures Routes to FORS accreditation section.

To achieve Silver or Gold accreditation, operators will need to maintain their Bronze accreditation and submit evidence to support their Silver or Gold application using the FORS evidencing system. Operators can check their accreditation expiry dates by logging into the evidencing system. For information about the annual Silver and Gold evidencing fees, please click here.

No, IAFA is only available if you can meet this criteria. However, you may like to consider Multi Operating Centre Accreditation (MOCA), as long as you operate the same policies and procedures. Further information can be found in the FORS Rules and Procedures document.

Yes, you can. You will need to submit evidence for all operating centres (OCs) in scope of your accreditation or you can identify any specific OC(s) and submit evidence just for that one. Silver accreditation will be gained for those OCs only.

Your Bronze and Silver accreditation must be renewed each year. You can apply for Gold MOCA as long as you have a valid Silver MOCA. The same as above applies in terms of scope of accreditation.

Your Bronze, Silver and Gold accreditation must be renewed each year prior to the respective expiry dates if you wish to maintain your Gold.

Yes you can apply for Silver IAFA, however, please note that you will still need to renew your Bronze accreditation each year prior to expiry and that you will not gain an extra year on your Bronze.

You can apply for Gold IAFA as long as you have a valid Silver IAFA. Please note that you will still need to renew your Bronze and Silver accreditations each year prior to the respective expiry dates if you wish to maintain Gold IAFA and that you will not gain an extra year on your Bronze.

No, Bronze operators can only apply for Silver (MA). You will need to become Silver accredited before you can apply for Gold MA.

Your certificate will state that you are a Bronze operator with Silver capability for the vehicles declared in your Silver MA application.

No, you will not be able to apply. All your operating centres must be on the same accreditation level for you to be eligible for Silver MA.

Your MA scope must show a minimum of 20 per cent yearly increase. If you can’t meet this requirement, this must be fully justified at audit.

If your follow-up application is not passed within 30 calendar days of first notification of failure, you will lose your MA capability. You will remain FORS Bronze/Silver accredited as long as your Bronze/Silver accreditation is maintained. A new full MA submission will be necessary to become mixed accredited again.

The Silver and Gold mixed accreditation evidencing fee is the same as the Silver and Gold evidencing fee. For information about the annual Silver and Gold evidencing fees, please click here.

Please upload the fleet list for all the operating centres.

The Head Office (HO) audit is conducted on an annual basis to ensure that all company policy documents are in place, have been reviewed and have been cascaded to all operating centres in the scope of the company’s FORS accreditation. The company will also must evidence the established vehicle fleet composition and distribution throughout the business.

The Head Office audit covers any minor action points that were evidenced during the previous reporting period for any of the operating centres. The auditor will review them to see if they have been satisfactorily addressed and implemented across the organisation. Please note that any unresolved minor action points WILL escalate into major action points and the HO audit will be graded accordingly.

The Head Office must be audited, and the audit passed before you can request any further audits.

This depends on the number of operating centres in your organisation. The breakdown is as follows:

• 2-4 OCs: two audits
• 5-15 OCs: three audits
• 16+ OCs: 20 per cent audited

Please note, the Head Office is included in these numbers.

No, you need to undergo the required amount of Bronze audits every year.

Only the MOCA overseer can book an audit for an operating centre. The overseer will need to log in to the MOCA dashboard and select the operating centre required to be audited.

You will be notified of the audit outcome via email within 10 working days after your Bronze audit date.

You are required to resolve all  minor action points that are listed in the action plan within 90 calendar days from notification, but you will not require to notify FORS. Your action points will be checked at your next Bronze audit and will result in a failed audit if not resolved.

If you have 16 or more major action points, you will need to book and undertake another full FORS Bronze on-site audit as opposed to a follow-up audit. This means that all requirements will be audited again. This audit will be charged as a full audit at the standard rate.

Unified audit is a new option to progress or maintain your Silver and Gold accreditations by submitting one combined Silver/Gold application, so you will only have one Silver/Gold expiry date. This option is voluntary and currently available for organisations with single operating centre accreditation (SOCA) only.

Aligning dates means choosing a new single expiry date. You can align the following expiry dates:

• Bronze and Silver
• Bronze, Silver and Gold
• Silver and Gold

Your Bronze audit remains a separate on-site audit. If you are due for a Bronze on-site audit, this must be passed prior to submitting the Silver and the combined Silver/Gold application.

Operators with more than three vehicles can save £90 on renewing Gold, or progressing to Gold, when opting for Silver/Gold unified audit. Small operators will continue to only pay the Silver audit fee of £235 when opting for Silver/Gold unified audit.

(*) small operators are those with a total fleet no larger than three vehicles

For more information on fees, click here.

Yes it is different. The new unified form allows you to evidence both Silver and Gold requirements in one combined form. The Silver/Gold requirements are still the same.

If you cannot access the forms on the evidencing page, it means the option is not available for you. This is because you have less than 45 days left on your earliest accreditation or you have already started a different application.

Your optimum date for unification is the maximum date presented to you by the system based on all your current accreditation expiry dates. You can choose any date within the range of minimum and maximum dates allowed, but you will lose more time on your accreditation the first year you unify if you don’t choose your maximum date.

The system will define a range for you to select a date from. The range will offer you a minimum and a maximum date. You can see your individual date range on the evidencing system page when you opt in for unified audit.

Case 1: You have between 75 and 45 calendar days left on your first expiring accreditation

• The minimum date is your current renewal date of your first expiring accreditation
• The maximum date is your current renewal date of your first expiring accreditation + 12 months (please note that you will lose some time from your second accreditation)

Case 2: You have more than 75 calendar days left on your first expiring accreditation

• The minimum date is the present day – this will change daily
• The maximum date is your current renewal date

Yes you can, but only if you have not already submitted your application. You will need to cancel the original application and start a new combined one. However, be aware that you will lose any data entered when you cancel an application.

You can cancel your application at any time, as long as you haven’t submitted it yet, by clicking on the Cancel button. Once you cancel an application, all application options will be available again. However, be aware that you will lose any data entered when you cancel an application.

No. If you fail any of the Silver requirements you will get a major action point on Gold requirement ‘G1 FORS Silver’. This means that you cannot be Gold accredited without passing all Silver and Gold requirements.

Yes. If you fail any of the Gold requirements but pass all the Silver requirements, you will become Silver accredited and you will receive a Silver certificate with the unified expiry date you chose. If Gold is then achieved within the 30 calendar day follow-up period, a Gold certificate will be sent to you.
