FARGO, N.D. – Pedigree Technologies, LLC teams up with Midwest Compliance, Inc to help transportation businesses achieve and maintain regulatory compliance through education, technology, and proper training.

“Compliance struggles are having a profound impact on many transportation businesses,” said Alex Warner, CEO of Pedigree Technologies, “Improving a fleet’s safety takes not only the technology and tools to ensure a driver is meeting regulations, but the expertise and training necessary when implementing a successful compliance solution. Partnering with Midwest Compliance will help our customers stay informed on the latest industry regulations, trained to manage their new tools, and provide long-term support systems.

Pedigree Technologies OneView® provides web- and tablet-based applications to give businesses a 360 degree view of their operations by connecting their assets, vehicles, and equipment in the field, and the mobile workforce with the home office. In early 2012, the company released FleetPOV, a tablet app for capturing driver Hours of Service (HOS), and generating electronic log books, along with other compliance features. The app turns in-cab tablets into Electronic Onboard Recorders (EOBR) and fulfills recent FMCSA mandates by integrating with the engine computer.

Midwest Compliance specializes in assisting companies who operate under the Department of Transportation authority and comply with Federal regulations. The company has helped many clients develop immediate and long-term solutions for maintaining regulatory compliance. In order to meet each individual client’s needs, Midwest Compliance provides customized driver training, regulatory updates, and conducts focused safety meetings.

“Regulations and government mandates are always a source of concern for the transportation industry,” said Billy Woolsey President of Midwest Compliance. “We continue to look for new and innovative solutions that can improve safety and streamline compliance for our clients. Being able to recommend Pedigree’s system will help businesses struggling with HOS reporting and provide valuable data to identify where further training is needed.”

The rules of that govern over-the-road and service vehicles continue to change the way transportation businesses are run. The MAP-21 mandate could require all commercial motor vehicles to use an EOBR device by as early as 2015. This partnership will help businesses stay ahead of these mandates by providing the technology and training expertise for managing HOS. “Coupling our customized compliance management services with Pedigree’s EOBR solution will help businesses achieve and maintain compliance,” said Woolsey.

Pedigree Technologies is headquartered in Fargo, North Dakota and operates satellite locations in Boston, MA; Denver, CO; Dickinson, ND; Houston, TX; New Orleans, LA; San Francisco, CA; and Sioux Falls, SD.
