DOT, SUPPLY CHAIN & FLEET MANAGEMENT SERVICES

With increased targeting and enforcement actions by DOT and state police, it is crucial to demonstrate that your drivers and fleet management program takes into account the inherent safety hazards presented by sharing the road with the public at large. Understanding the different requirements and implications applicable to interstate versus intrastate operations, and the development of a program that satisfies each, will not only reduce the liability of your company but will also ensure that business continuity is not impacted by the decommissioning of your fleet based on compliance violations.
