Listed company EROAD is launching its Electronic Logbook in the USA this week, providing transport operators with an electronic hours of service (HOS) solution to help improve compliance and reduce paperwork.
With its Electronic Logbook, EROAD says it is providing its customers with a comprehensive electronic tax and compliance solution on its secure technology platform.
It says that Electronic Logbook is a tool for drivers to capture driver status. The product generates automatic alerts about rest breaks and potential hours of service violations, making record-keeping and compliance easier.
EROAD says it leveraged the knowledge and experience derived from developing its solution for the New Zealand market. The company launched an NZTA-approved Electronic Logbook in New Zealand in July 2014.
“With the FMCSA’s rule on the Electronic Logging Devices mandate, many USA motor carriers will need to implement a change management programme,” says EROAD chief executive officer Steven Newman.
“We are focused on supporting our North American customers as they prepare for a successful transition to a compliant ELD solution. Our Electronic Logbook is the first step towards that solution,” says Newman.
EROAD says that Electronic Logbook is included as part of the company’s Drive App, along with its Driver Vehicle Inspection Report (DVIR).
