What is a remote Bronze audit?<\/h3>\n

A remote audit is an audit that is conducted online via a video call between a fleet operator and a FORS auditor. It is held on the date agreed between the operator and the FORS Audit Provider. The auditor will need to see evidence that the fleet operation meets all the requirements of the FORS Standard. If the auditor requires additional evidence to support the audit, they will verbally request at the time of the audit for this information to be uploaded to the Bronze evidencing portal.<\/p>\n

Fleet operators will need to have a laptop\/computer with a working camera and microphone and will be asked to provide their evidence either by sharing screen or by presenting the relevant evidence to the camera during the audit video call.<\/p>\n

Once a remote audit has been booked, the audit provider will send a video call link for the remote audit. Operators must make sure that they can access the relevant video conferencing platform and download the required software if necessary (if not already downloaded).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
