SAN DIEGO, Oct. 22, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- ATA MC&E
Booth #549 -- In advance of the Department of Transportation's
(DOT) Electronic Logging Device (ELD) mandate, Lytx RAIR compliance
services has added new functionality and a more streamlined
workspace to make managing fleet hours-of-service (HOS) and
Compliance, Safety, Accountability (CSA) compliance more
comprehensive and efficient, and reducing violation risk easier,
Lytx announced today.
Powered by sophisticated analytics, Lytx RAIR compliance
services currently audits more than 8 million electronic and paper
logs each month for more than 1,300 fleets. Lytx RAIR integrates
with virtually every major ELD to consume and audit log data –
perfect for fleets with multiple ELD providers. RAIR has the added
capability to validate electronic and paper logs with events and
supporting documentation against the driver's duty status.
These log falsification checks are validated using data from fuel
cards, GPS, EZPass, roadside inspections, accidents, and more. The
result is a comprehensive audit of 100 percent of driver logs, with
a precise analysis of documentation gaps and flags for falsified,
incomplete or inaccurate logs.
"Lytx's expertise is in taking huge volumes of data and
translating it into the actionable insights that will have the
biggest and most positive impact on drivers' performance," said
Lytx RAIR General Manager Rick
Walters. "The powerful new RAIR workspace presents those
insights in an 'at-a-glance' dashboard of a driver's compliance
status, and helps safety and compliance managers prioritize their
actions to reduce risk."
In preparing for the ELD mandate, RAIR has updated its services
to meet the DOT's new data requirements. Additionally, RAIR's
ELD integrations have been updated to support the ingest of the new
data points to ensure clients can track drivers' adherence to the
new rules once they are enacted. The added functionality and
enhancements further enable the cross-referencing of hours of
service (HOS) with supporting documentation and log validation to
pinpoint trouble spots, because, as Walters said, "you can't take
action on what you aren't aware of."
The updated RAIR workspace dashboard shows at a glance:
- Hours-of-service violation statistics, quickly answering
whether they're trending upward or downward, how they are
performing against specific HOS rules, and how violations are
influencing CSA scores.
- CSA Group BASIC scores, showing the CSA percentile for
the associated DOT number in each of the 7 BASICS compared to the
Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) intervention
threshold for each BASIC. This allows users to evaluate how
performance is trending and see what violation types contribute the
most to the score.
- Group ranking, quickly identifying which
terminals/locations are struggling with HOS or CSA violations,
enabling the safety and compliance manager to detect and address
the groups or locations that are having the biggest impact on both
risk and compliance.
- Driver ranking, quickly revealing which drivers are
generating HOS or CSA violations, enabling the safety and
compliance manager to work with the drivers who are having the
biggest impact on both risk and compliance.
- Location Ranking, enabling the safety and compliance
manager to view a roll up of performance trends by a specific
location.
RAIR accesses the FMCSA portal daily and the Motor Carrier
Management Information System (MCMIS) database monthly to capture
all violations so the RAIR workspace dashboard always reflects the
most current information available.
"RAIR can help ensure a smooth and seamless transition as
companies move from paper to electronic logs," said Walters.
"RAIR will continue to offer a robust paper logs and timecard
auditing solution for those companies who continue to have that
need or who are exempt from the ELD mandate."
The ready-for-ELD mandate RAIR service will be available in
December prior to the mandate going into effect.
