Achievement of Core Module compliance by reviewing your documentation, helping you complete your questionnaire, and developing your Rail Compliance System.
A comprehensive service by allowing one of our consultants to visit your offices and assess your existing management systems and produce a full gap analysis report, which will highlight the areas that need immediate attention.
IHS – UK Network Rail Standards
Before your Achilles audit, there will be an additional cost to your business and a mandatory requirement to adhere to the IHS UK Network Rail standards. However, at JVR Consultancy, we provide you with advice and support on how to obtain this and offer this for free as part of our services.
Experience
Our Achilles rail consultants have vast experience in developing fully compliant integrated management systems for many clients. Some of our consultants have been Achilles Auditors in the past, hence they understand the full process in what it takes to become full compliant within this scheme.
We have the full experience of the rail process from initial application through to producing and implementing rail specific policies and procedures. Our rail compliance specialists have in-depth knowledge of the product codes and the requirements of the Core Module and can advise the best course of qualification for your company.
Thorough
We will develop your management system writing your procedures, policies and associated documentation to ensure a fully compliant and easy to maintain management system.

Frequently Asked Questions from our Customers
Yes we can, we can assist you with any of the accreditation featured on our website. We have a 100% record of securing any of the accreditation in the first audit for all our customers for the last 13 years.
More to the point, I ask clients how quickly can you start. We can have a consultant working on your accreditation within the hour if you are ready. The only things that take time are the audit dates, these are issued to the client by the certification body so it is out of our control.
This depends on how much the client has in place already. The more they have, the easier it becomes to work on their accreditation. The gap analysis that we carry out is free of charge and afterwards will give you an exact fixed price.
The fixed price will include the following –
- Carry out all the work ( creating documents & processes tailored to your company )
- Attend the audit ( as your expert consultant ) or make the desktop submission.
- Make any corrections that the auditor may highlight to ensure that you obtain your accreditation the first audit.
Initially, we need to talk to you to carry out the free gap analysis. Afterwards, we would require you to forward all the relevant documents. After that, we can complete the work with the minimum of your input, leaving you to concentrate on doing what you do best for the company.
Yes! Let us Manage your Accreditations with Ongoing Support and Maintenance. With us managing your accreditations, your team can then focus on business growth and development. This gives you peace of mind knowing your compliance is being routinely managed by professionals. Ongoing support and maintenance avoids panic in your business when suddenly faced with an audit, knowing at all times you are well prepared.
Achieve Accreditation and Compliance with JVR

We noticed that there was a gap in the market, for companies who work in the construction, rail, utilities, oil and gas sector who were not fully supported in the way that they could be when it came to industry compliance and certification. That is why our highly experienced team of compliance consultants can serve these sectors by providing over 135 years of combined experience with all compliance needs. In short, you won’t find anyone else who cares as much, or who tries as hard as we do.
Speak with one of our experienced consultants. At JVR, we know that time is precious, and you want the answers to your questions quickly. Once we speak with you for the first time over the phone, we need around 10 minutes to fully evaluate which accreditation you need support with and a brief introduction into you and your company.
