DAF sales dealers score 100% Platinum in Maintenance Provision Rating Scheme

The MPRS is an independent, sector-endorsed scheme supported by the DVSA and the Office of the Traffic Commissioner. Platinum represents the scheme’s highest rating and is ascribed to all 33 DAF Truck Sales dealers nationwide, underscoring DAF’s commitment to delivering the very best in workshop quality, technical expertise and customer support across its UK dealer network.

DAF Trucks is committed to ensuring its entire DAF dealer network, including all service locations – totalling 127 locations in Great Britain and Northern Ireland – attain MPRS Platinum status before the end of 2025.

Platinum is awarded only to those locations and networks that demonstrate benchmark capabilities. The scheme grants Platinum status ‘For workshops with the most advanced facilities, the highest levels of staff qualifications and full compliance with the latest industry standards. This level is suited for operators at the cutting edge of maintenance technology and practices, ensuring full readiness for future vehicle trends, including electric, hybrid, and hydrogen-powered systems’.

With a Platinum ranking, every DAF Sales dealer workshop has been independently audited and verified to meet or exceed the most stringent criteria set by the MPRS. This includes 100% of staff trained in heavy and passenger service vehicle (HGV/PSV) inspection and maintenance, at least half trained in both electric/hybrid and gas/hydrogen vehicle technologies and multiple Advanced Technicians at every site.

In addition, DAF workshops maintain robust, continuous professional development (CPD) programmes, advanced quality assurance systems and clear management-to-workshop communication channels. All Platinum-level standards are also upheld during out-of-hours service provision, ensuring round-the-clock excellence for operators.

Ian Grant, customer service director at DAF Trucks UK, said: “Achieving Platinum status across our sales dealer network is testament to the expertise, dedication and professionalism of our teams. It reflects our ongoing investment in people, facilities and technology, ensuring our customers receive the very highest level of service and support, today and into the future.

“For operators, working with a Platinum-rated DAF dealer network provides absolute confidence in compliance, safety and technical excellence. The MPRS Platinum award proves that we not only meet, but exceed industry expectations, cementing our position as the market leader in the UK truck market.”
