Following the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s announcement of a final rule governing hours-of-service regulations for commercial motor vehicle drivers, Prophesy Transportation Solutions announced Wednesday, Nov. 19, that its driver log auditing software, Prophesy LogPlus, remains fully equipped to handle the current HOS regulations.
Prophesy says its announcement is intended to address the concerns of many trucking companies that so far have avoided the purchase of log audit software in anticipation of regulation changes, believing broad changes to the rules may render their software obsolete. With FMCSA’s final rule, Prophesy says it is confident in the ability of LogPlus to handle each of its requirements today and in the future.
“We take great pride in keeping our compliance software solutions, such as LogPlus, up to date with all current commercial vehicle driver regulations,” says Bill Ashburn, vice president of Bloomfield, Conn.-based Prophesy/Accellos. “Our users rely on us to uphold that level of accuracy.”
Ashburn says that as an incentive to trucking companies that desire the many benefits of log auditing software but have delayed their purchasing decision amid concerns of potential rule changes, Prophesy is offering a 25 percent discount on all new LogPlus purchases until the end of December 2008.
Prophesy LogPlus is designed to help trucking companies check for and record all driver log violations, including speeding violations, exceeding available hours, mileage discrepancies, log falsification, cumulative violations and other trucking company rules and Department of Transportation regulations.
LogPlus users also can track driver toll and fuel receipts, check reported miles against a comprehensive mileage and routing database for related violations, and print several reports and compliance letters for drivers.
