Qualcomm, the same technology Road Scholar Transport has integrated on its trucks to ensure the safety of your 
cargo, will be releasing a deluxe version within the next several weeks.
The new version, powered by FleetRisk Advisors, Inc., will be in conjunction with the new CSA Safety Measurement System (SMS). According to Qualcomm’s website, the service will be commercially available and will “integrate data from the CSA Safety Measurement System (SMS) and correlate relevant Qualcomm services data, including Hours of Service violations, Critical Event Reporting and Performance Monitoring, to provide a comprehensive analysis of driver and fleet-specific data.”
Safety is key and Qualcomm believes that their new addition would help to sort out unsafe drivers and increase safety performance while decreasing accidents and violations.
According to the site (http://www.qualcomm.com/news/releases/2011/01/20/qualcomm-announces-commercial-availability-csa-safety-performance-service), carriers who choose this service will have access to:
• Comprehensive views of a fleet’s performance across FMCSA’s 7 BASICs
• Tools to identify potential problem areas in future inspections
• Driver coaching scripts to address identified issues, and
• Detailed tracking of the remediation process
