Engineering Quality Management TfL has a requirement to provide an Engineering Quality Monitoring (EQM) system which encompasses vehicle inspection for London Buses, Dial-a-Ride vehicles and rail replacement buses.

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.

This will ensure all bus operators are keeping their buses maintained to the standard required by TfL and in line with VOSA recommendations.
