SM or AEDM

Hi meehan

Having attended the Managers course you are now qualified for the role of AEDM - Authorised Examiner Designated Manager.

The role of SM - Site Manager, was made redundant at the start of MOT 2.

The AE is the Authorised Examiner - the business entity. This could be a sole trader, partnership, or Limited Company.

There is no need to submit a VT01. This is only used for changes of ownership of the business, or physical alterations to the test bay, or premises.

The AEDM has responsibility to ensure full compliance - monitoring test standards, ensuring equipment is in good order and in calibration, ensuring documentation is in order etc.

You can Google AEDM role and download the Requirements for Authorisation. Section 7 gives info on the AEDM role.

I presume yours is a Limited Company, in which case the correct procedure is for a director to write to your local DVSA office, requesting that you be appointed AEDM. DVSA will check your training record and then you will be assigned the role on MOT 2. The letter should also request that you are given an accounts role, which will allow you to buy test slots.

From then you will be able to access the relevant functions through MOT 2.

Good luck.

It's still on the screen, but can a SM actually do anything on MOT 2 ?

Thanks ivor

All the other SM functions like entering calibrations & ordering test slots are gone.

Maybe DVSA have left it available for future use ?

All sites require a site manager as far as I understand, if you've sat the managers course then you need to assign yourself the role, you could do this yourself on comp 1 and I think you can do it yourself on comp 2 but I can't look for you right now as the system is down for maintenance

Is that maintenance or repair ! We were on CT yesterday
