> Compliance for HGV & PSV operators

One place for
transport compliance.

And it doesn’t flag the job. It books it.

Walkarounds, defects, inspections, tachograph and licence checks in one place. When an inspection falls due, Balloonn emails your garage, reads the reply and books the slot.

It works from your records

Not a separate to-do list. Every line is drawn from your own walkarounds, inspections and licence checks.

It shows its working

Each item names the vehicle, the date and the obligation behind it, so you can check it yourself.

You stay in charge

Nothing is signed off or declared roadworthy without a transport manager saying so.

You are paying five suppliers to do one job.

Five logins, five invoices, five places to look. When DVSA asks for fifteen months of records, none of it joins up.

BalloonnOne login. One record per vehicle. One audit trail.

Courses to adapt, or build your own.

Induction, manual handling, load security, drivers’ hours and yard banksman come as templates written for UK operators. Clone one, put your own SOP and video in it, and assign it.

Your own toolbox talks go in the same place. Set who has to take it and how often it repeats, and the evidence of who has been trained on what sits with the driver’s record.

It books the garage. You just confirm.

Every other system tells you an inspection is due, then waits for you to pick up the phone.

Balloonn emails your garage, reads the reply and updates the booking. If nobody answers, it chases. You get a booked slot, not a reminder.

Across twenty vehicles that is the difference between a morning’s work and a notification.

Tap a check to change it

Checked in the yard. Visible in the office, straight away.

No app store, no passwords to forget. Big buttons and high contrast, because it gets used in the dark wearing gloves.

A defect reaches the workshop the moment it is reported, with the photograph, vehicle, driver and time attached. Nil-defect checks are logged too, because DVSA expects to see them.

Drivers see their own hours, licence status and training in the same place.

You send a spreadsheet. We do the rest.

The reason fleet software does not get used is that nobody has time to set it up. So we set it up for you, before you log in for the first time. Most operators are running properly inside a week.

1Send your vehicle and driver listWhatever format it is in. Excel is fine, that is what we expect.
2We load it and check itVehicles, drivers, operating centres, inspection intervals, your garage. MOT and tax pulled automatically.
3You see your compliance dashboardYour own vehicles and drivers, walkarounds due, inspections planned and licences checked. Not a demo account.
4We stay on the end of the phoneNot just how the software works. Your O-licence details and where you stand on them, whenever you want a second pair of eyes.

See it running on your own fleet.
