Qualcomm Inc announced the commercial availability of the CSA Safety Performance Service. The Basic service is available now, and the Deluxe service will be available in the next several weeks. The Deluxe service will provide carriers with a tool to manage performance related to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s (FMCSA) new Safety Measurement System (SMS) scoring methodology.

The CSA Safety Performance Service integrates data from the SMS and correlates relevant Qualcomm services data, including hours-of-service violations, critical event reporting and performance monitoring, to provide an analysis of driver and fleet-specific data. The service helps identify drivers who are most vulnerable to unsafe driving and additional CSA violations, allowing fleet and safety managers to monitor and improve driver performance proactively and reduce exposure to fines, interventions, accidents, and poor CSA scores.

Powered by FleetRisk Advisors Inc’s The Driving Center, the service helps fleets improve their SMS scores and reduce inspections, violations, and accidents. Carriers that implement the CSA Safety Performance Service have access to:

•Comprehensive views of a fleet’s performance across FMCSA’s 7 BASICs (according to FMCSA records)
•Tools to identify potential problem areas in future inspections
•Driver coaching scripts to address identified issues
•Detailed tracking of the remediation process
