J. J. Keller adds MVR monitoring to its fleet management system
J. J. Keller & Associates has introduced a motor vehicle record (MVR) monitoring feature to its Encompass fleet management system, allowing carriers to track driver records in real time and address high-risk behavior more quickly, the company said in a news release.
The new feature enables both on-demand and ongoing monitoring of drivers’ MVRs for negative events, such as licence suspensions, illegal maneuvers and speeding. When an event occurs, the system generates an updated MVR and notifies the carrier, the company said, adding that driver training is also available in Encompass to provide immediate corrective action based on the event.
“Instead of carriers waiting for an annual MVR pull to discover a driver’s high-risk driving behavior, they can now find out when it happens,” said Frances Crowley Yuronich, senior product manager of technology solutions at J. J. Keller, in a release. “This enables carriers to remove unsafe drivers from the road fast and address the behavior before a violation or accident occurs.”
