With our foray into wheelchair accessible transport, we've discovered something that's absolutely amazed us...you or your vehicle do not have to be accredited by any state transport department nor licensed by them to transport NDIS scheme passengers.

As an old school 25 year veteran of the passenger transport industry, this has brought up two schools of thought about this, and I'd like your feedback on this (sorry for the post length, bear with me!) -

PROS - Administered by the Federal Government, the NDIS work does not consider the accreditation framework each and every state has for this work, necessary. This means the drivers and WAV (wheelchair accessible vehicles) do not have to hold the accreditations as operators and drivers, and they are free to have anyone with a driver's licence carry out this work and get paid for it - carers, assistants, nurses, you name it with no age requirements. Background checks are carried out under the yellow card accreditation, and vehicle checks are done at the discretion of a mechanic when servicing the vehicle - if that happens at all because there are no roadworthy/safety checks/annual inspections needed either. This situation is free of many checks and audits.

CONS - Each state has driver & vehicle accreditation requirements for paid passenger transport work, and these ensure the driver and vehicle are onboarded, maintained and services (most) delivered to a very high standard. Operators usually select drivers that have accumulated around 8 years of driving experience, looking for large vehicle and multi-passenger work in their past. A driving infringement record is a non-negotiable requirement for any new driver and even when drivers are at that point, there is a training programme that includes disability awareness, sexual discrimination awareness, electronic device distraction awareness and other in-house customer service requirements. Accredited operators also tend to specify Australian delivered and wheelchair equipment upfitted from local suppliers so that repair downtime is kept to a minimum. Vehicles we've seen carrying out NDIS work range from Australian delivered vehicles with wheelchair lifts installed by Australian suppliers, to old Japanese import vehicles fitted with Japanese domestic market wheelchair lifts with little or no weight rating, to ten years or older vehicles converted to WAVs before the updated Australian Standards came through and are high mileage, prone to breaking down, cramped and unsuitable.

Our conclusion is that while we acknowledge that the NDIS is a Federal Government programme, the requirements and standards from the state authorities do serve a purpose. I'll be the first to admit that the framework is a royal pain in the bum, but it enforces standards, entails a service level that meets or exceeds expectations and protects passengers, drivers and operators alike.

We will therefore, be operating our WAV and NDIS services under the Queensland Transport Operator Accreditation framework. While this isn't required, the pros far outweigh the cons, and it will ensure that your driver is experienced and reliable, your chosen vehicle is safe and dependable as well as fully compliant with the latest Australian Standards, and your ride is fully insured.

If you believe that thiese requirements make us a better choice than the maxi taxis and care organisation transport, come on board with us - we'd love to see you.

This is an awful example of how NDIS and aged care transport can go awfully wrong...

https://7news.com.au/news/wheelchair-passenger-killed-in-van-crash-at-hayborough-south-australia-c-16147475

Always make sure that your disability transport provider is accredited with the Department Of Transport in the state you're in...care organisations and individuals that are actually illegal operators think they can operate under the NDIS hammer but they are unaccredited, uninsured and often unexperienced.

Intertrans holds all the relevant insurance and accreditations in the state of Queensland and has over 30 years experience.
