We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve once again achieved a perfect 100% score in the annual renewal of our Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme (FORS) Bronze Level Certification.
This marks another year of demonstrating our unwavering dedication to the safety, efficiency, and sustainability across our fleet operations.
A TESTIMONY TO EXCELLENCE
This accolade highlights the robust systems and procedures we have in place here at Rayden Engineering Ltd (REL), ensuring our ongoing compliance with the latest FORS standards.
We were independently audited by FORS at the beginning of December 2024 – as a Single Operating Centre (SOC) – at our Head Offices in Ilkeston. Our team showcased outstanding performance in all key areas: Management, Vehicles, Drivers, and Operations – with no major or minor action points identified.
Our new FORZ Bronze Certification remains valid through to January 2026.
WHY FORS MATTERS
As a voluntary accreditation, FORS underscores our commitment to embedding industry-leading best practices within our transport operations. With eleven vehicles in our fleet – including two HGVs and nine vans – our FORS Bronze certification reflects our meticulous attention to safety measures, environmental impact reduction, and operational efficiency.

CONTINUAL IMPROVEMENT
At REL, we see the FORS framework as more than just a certification – it’s a strategic tool to drive continual improvement. It provides a structured benchmark to refine our practices continually, ensuring safety, sustainability, and operational efficiency remain at the heart of operations.
Our commitment to self-growth means we’re always looking ahead. With Bronze certification secured, our sights are now set firmly on achieving FORS Silver, and ultimately, the prestigious Gold standard, reflecting the highest level of excellence across our fleet operations.
