A.I.M. Commercial Services Limited

Road transport operators can access tachograph analysis, compliance support and industry training through A.I.M. Commercial Services Limited. The business was established by Managing Director Allison Kemp as a sole trader in 2004, initially supporting local hauliers with a Tachograph Analysis Bureau and road transport compliance audit systems. It later expanded into training on digital tachographs and drivers’ hours before registering as a limited company in 2008.

Operating from a purpose-built training and office facility in Ripley, Derbyshire, the company works with employers and employees across the transport sector. Its activities are organised into three divisions: the Tachograph Analysis Bureau, Transport Compliance Division and Training Academy. This structure brings analysis, operational compliance and workforce development together for businesses seeking support suited to their transport operations.
