Maintenance Provision Rating Scheme

About the Scheme
The Maintenance Provision Rating Scheme (MPRS) is an independent recognition created by the industry for the industry with support from industry bodies, DVSA and the Office of Traffic Commissioners. Aimed at workshops and maintenance facilities of all sizes, MPRS is a single rating scheme that gauges performance of current facilities and workforce quality through comprehensive audits and collective evidence.

MPRS puts the spotlight on improving current standards across workshops and maintenance facilities across the nation, highlighting non-compliant and unsafe practices that compromise safety and standards within the commercial industry.

Endorsed by the sector, an MPRS rating reflects the competency of a workshop’s facilities and technical expertise. The higher the rating, the greater the confidence operators should have in the competences.
