MetaSource EOBR and Content Management Solutions Help Truckload Carriers Transition to the CSA EOBR and Enforcement Initiative and Deliver Improved Productivity and Efficiency

Everyone is talking about CSA 2010 in the transportation industry. In addition to the safety aspects of CSA 2010, there are the endless discussions about Electronic On-Board Recorders (EOBR).

As the transition from paper driver logs to electronic driver logs begins, there will still be a significant requirement to process the paper logs in the short term as the transition to EOBRs takes place. The number of ways to capture (scan) these paper logs is growing – from truck stop, terminal and in-cab scanning solutions. This presents a problem with the EOBR software that attempts to automatically capture the hours of service on the grid, since so many different image formats, sizes and quality of images are now flowing into the audits.

 Customer Challenges and Opportunities

Some firms may be forced to implement EOBRs as result of their new safety / compliance scores, but others may elect to be ahead of the curve by implementing the technology. More importantly, requiring EOBRs for more trucking firms is gaining momentum. Whenever a solution includes a huge capital investment at the forefront, it becomes economically challenging, and nowhere is this more evident than implementing in-cab scanning solutions and EOBRs.

As a recognized industry leader, MetaSource enables transportation firms to meet these challenges by automating in-cab scanning and delivering a solution that improves productivity, efficiency and communication. MetaSource has created a process that uses both Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software as well as manual Data Entry. This process helps eliminate rejects regardless of size, shape or quality.
