From a snapshot to monthly visibility

A starting point. Then a way to follow change.

A USDOT number identifies the carrier. Its safety and operating profile helps you understand the record behind it. A one-time review gives you a dated starting point; monthly monitoring helps you follow changes in CSA results.

Scope, data and onboarding

Questions before
you begin.

Can we discuss one carrier or a group?

Yes. Review one third-party carrier or a group of carriers you work with. Tell CB approximately how many carriers are involved. We will discuss the scope, the authorization and onboarding needed for each carrier, and who will receive the results.

How are intervention thresholds explained?

The profile shows available SMS measures or percentiles across all seven BASICs, compares percentiles with the intervention thresholds that apply to the carrier and identifies the relevant intervention indicators. For each BASIC with an available percentile, the profile also shows its percentage of the applicable intervention threshold. This comparison is calculated by CB and is separate from official FMCSA measures.

What if a result is unavailable?

Each profile identifies its source dates and the period covered by enforcement history. A BASIC may have insufficient data for a percentile, or another field may be unavailable. Those limits are shown rather than treating a missing result as a clean record.

How does this fit with other CB services?

These paid services provide a third-party carrier profile and, with monitoring, monthly CSA updates. Fleet Command is being developed for fleet operators, with planned daily monitoring, management reports, separate driver guidance and a reporting workspace. Automated daily updates are coming soon. The complimentary DOT Health Assessment provides fleet operators with a focused written summary of available public safety information, with an optional later conversation.
