Notice Information

Notice Title

TfL_SCP_001779 Engineering Quality Management (EQM)

Notice Description

The requirement also includes service records inspection, site examinations (to quantify the vehicle maintenance standard) and to produce bus operator identified vehicle trends. EQM is an integral service to Bus Engineering as this allows TfL to monitor the fleet condition, spot trends and help deliver a safe and reliable service to agreed standards and specifications. The work needs to be carried out by fully trained and qualified inspection engineers who are totally independent of the bus operating companies; also the engineers must be fully conversant with buses and Vehicle and Operator Service Agency (VOSA) standards.
