1. ISO Quality Management
One of the ways BELLE VUE provides QUALITY on all our school trips is by having ISO Quality Management across the company. ISO Quality Management: By focusing on our customersā experience, ISO 9001 has better equipped our business to meet their needs, improving the customer focus throughout the business. Certification shows that our organisationās quality processes have been audited against the ISO 9001 standards with third party certification bodies offering independent confirmation that an organisation meets the requirements of the 9001 standard.
2. OCRS Score
The OCRS Rating with the DVSA is the best way to assess an operators Vehicle Maintenance safety. This is measured by the DVSA and scored like a traffic light system based on vehicle MOT pass rate and roadside inspections. Based on the points tally, DVSA then allocates an OCRS traffic light status of green (low risk), amber (medium) or red (high risk). There is also a grey category for what DVSA terms an unknown operator ā one for which no enforcement data is yet available. Make sure you travel with a GREEN operator who is safe and compliant!
3. Driver DBS Checks
At BELLE VUE we understand that when it comes to school trips and passenger transport, nothing is more important than safety. That's why we go the extra mile to ensure every driver behind the wheel is not just experienced, but also thoroughly DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) checked and cleared of any convictions. DBS checking of Drivers: It's our way of making sure that from the moment you board to the moment you arrive, you're in the safest hands. Passenger safety isn't just a part of our policy; it's our top priority.
