Introduction - September 2004 CVFM
  • An earlier version of this package was presented
    to participants of the ITSA Commercial Vehicle
    and Freight Mobility (CVFM) Summer Meeting on
    September 1, 2004
  • In breakout groups, stakeholders refined visions
    and concepts for four capability areas
  • Driver Information Sharing
  • Expanded Safety Information Sharing
  • Smart Roadside
  • Expanded E-Credentialing

Refine Vision and Concepts
34
Introduction - September 2004 CVFM
  • Reconvened, reviewed revisions, and voted on
    priorities
  • Consider the needs and funding sources available
    to your constituency. Suppose you have 1M in
    funding from federal, state, or industry sources
    combined to spend on Expanded CVISN. On what
    concept(s) will you spend those dollars?
  • Consider what others need to do to help you
    achieve your goals. FMCSA and national
    organizations like ITSA have finite time and
    resources to work on aspects of Expanded CVISN
    such as research, architecture and standards,
    training, and technical support. In which
    concepts should FMCSA and its national partners
    invest their resources?
  • This presentation includes the modified vision
    and concept statements.
  • Overall voting results will be summarized at the
    end.

Vision and Concepts for Expanded CVISN
Capability Areas
  • Driver Information Sharing (D)
  • Expanded Safety Information Sharing (S)
  • Smart Roadside (R)
  • Expanded E-Credentialing (C)

Driver Information Sharing
36
Driver Information SharingVision
  • There is no CDL fraud. Each licensed driver is
    qualified to drive the commercial vehicles
    specified on his/her license, and no driver holds
    multiple licenses.
  • Drivers privacy rights are protected, without
    compromising safety.
  • Authorized users (e.g., law enforcement,
    licensing agencies, potential and current
    employers) can easily access information about an
    individual driver. All authorized data users
    access the same source for the information.
  • Future consideration Authorized law enforcement
    personnel know who is driving a vehicle in
    advance of its arrival at an inspection site,
    port of entry, or other checkpoint and can more
    easily assess compliance with regulations.
  • Driver identification is consistent, reliable and
    secure.

Driver Information Sharing Vision
37
Driver Information Sharing ConceptsDevelop and
Use Driver Snapshots
  • D1. Establish, maintain, and provide controlled
    access to driver snapshots that include all or

    of roadside operations are improved through
    automation and application of proven technologies
    and processes.
  • Data collected by on-board systems are used to
    streamline and improve operations and enforcement
    activities.
  • Enforcement activities are conducted more
    effectively and frequently.
  • Safe and secure cargo moves efficiently through
    designated trade corridors. Intrusions and
    anomalies are detected and reported.
  • Shippers, carriers, and customers can predict
    reliably the transit time for a given shipment
    and can check on its current status.
  • Enforcement knows which carriers, vehicles,
    drivers, or cargoes are high-risk and allocates
    resources accordingly.

Smart Roadside Vision
48
Smart Roadside ConceptsMake More Data More
Readily Accessible
  • R1. Expand access to data collected by on-board
    systems to improve roadside operations for all
    stakeholders.

    roadside personnel to data stored in
    infrastructure systems (e.g., SAFER, MCMIS, CDL
    data systems).
  • R3. Provide carriers with streamlined and timely
    access to citation, crash, and inspection
    information so they are better informed about
    safety problems. Consider proactively delivering
    the data to the carrier.

Smart Roadside Concepts
49
Smart Roadside ConceptsLink Roadside Data to
Infrastructure Data
  • R4. Associate the high-risk cargo (tbd) with the
  • - Container in which it is stored
  • - Manifest
  • - Chassis transporting the container
  • - Vehicle transporting the container
  • - Transponder associated with the vehicle

from Checkpoints
  • R8. Allow authorized private and public sector
    access to the event data and related information
    based on legitimate needs for information to
    improve productivity, streamline operations, and
    improve security. Some examples
  • - Enforcement could identify high-risk cargo for
    inspection
  • - Customs could pre-screen cargo
  • - Entry/exit processing through ports of entry
    could be expedited for low-risk pre-screened
    cargo
  • - Emergency responders and enforcement could
    identify potential hazards
  • - Carriers and regulatory agencies could detect
    unexpected route deviations (geo-fencing)
  • - Carriers could enhance asset tracking
  • - Shippers could track progress of cargo
  • - Analysts could investigate security incidents
    using chain-of-possession information implicit in
    the event data

Smart Roadside Concepts

    electronic methods to apply for, pay for and
    receive all available e-credentials paperlessly
    through one portal.
  • Credentialing data is entered only once, by the
    authoritative originator, and re-used by all
    systems that need it.
  • Enrollment/application processes share common
    data elements and are consistent with state and
    federal e-business practices and rules.
  • Paperless e-credentials are available for all
    authorized users, with near-real-time status,
    update and data correction capability.
  • CVO information systems support uniform, reliable
    and complete data exchange standards for all
    identified credentials.

Expanded E-Credentialing Vision
55
Expanded E-Credentialing Vision (continued)
  • 100 of credentials will only be issued to
    drivers, vehicles, and carriers who are compliant
    with all applicable regulations and laws and are
    not security risks.
  • Establish consistent performance measures to
    guide implementation of e-credentialing vision
    related to cost, compliance, and data reliability.

Expanded E-Credentialing Vision
56
Expanded E-Credentialing ConceptsImprove
Service to Customers

    offering access to multiple credentials from a
    single source. Users enter information once
    instead of multiple times.
  • C2. Increase the kinds of e-credentials that are
    available (e.g., add oversize/overweight
    permitting, HazMat).
  • C3. Offer a variety of standard e-payment
    options.
  • C4. Improve the process for enrolling in multiple
    e-screening programs, e-toll, and other
    multi-jurisdictional programs through provision
    of linkages to all programs.
