Customize to match rules you define to qualify carriers.
When you use CarrierWatch, you can be sure you’ve got the right carrier for the job.
Brokers and shippers can define their own criteria regarding when they want to be notified of carrier data changes. You can also run a search to see if an address, phone number, fax number, etc. has been used previously by a carrier who went out of business or was shut down by the FMCSA.
According to the FMCSA, the Unified Registration System (URS) is an electronic online registration system that streamlines the carrier registration process. It applies to all the entities that FMCSA regulates, including freight and passenger motor carriers, brokers, freight forwarders, intermodal equipment providers, hazardous materials safety permit applicants/holders, and cargo tank manufacturing and repair facilities.
Using DAT’s CarrierWatch you never have to worry about working with a fraudulent carrier. Using DAT’s database, you can search thousands of carriers using our DOT number lookup function, which means you can rest assured that carriers are compliant with all FMCSA regulations.
DAT CarrierWatch verifies that carriers are up-to-date with their USDOT number registration. In addition, DAT CarrierWatch also checks safety ratings, carrier identity, state and federal regulation compliance, and insurance so that you can trust you’ve found the right carrier.
DAT CarrierWatch is updated daily, so you’ll always know if a carrier’s status has changed. Users receive email alerts as soon as there is any update to carrier information, such as changes in authority, USDOT number, safety rating, inspections, crash data, insurance renewals, and cancellations.
With DAT CarrierWatch, you can use our DOT number lookup feature to keep track of carriers you’ve worked with in the past. Just because a carrier was legal last time you worked together doesn’t necessarily mean that carrier is legal today. You can define your own criteria so you can be notified of any applicable carrier data changes.
