"CSA Safety Management System (SMS) Update"
Article published on Thursday, May 10, 2012
The CSA Safety Measurement System (SMS) website has been updated
with the April 27, 2012 snapshot. Check your safety
assessment now at: http://ai.fmcsa.dot.gov/sms.
Also available is FMCSA's SMS Preview website. Carriers can
log in to the site to preview the first package of proposed changes
to the SMS through two websites:
1. Visit the CSA Website (http://csa.fmcsa.dot.gov/smspreview/)
and log in with an FMCSA-issued U.S. DOT number and a personal
identification number (PIN), or
2. Log in to the FMCSA Portal (https://portal.fmcsa.dot.gov/login)
and select the "CSA Outreach" link.
FMCSA encourages motor carriers to view the SMS Preview to see how
methodology changes will affect their SMS results. Written comments
regarding the changes can be filed to the Federal Docket Management
System, Docket ID Number FMCSA-2012-0074.
NOTE TO CARRIERS: To login into the SMS or SMS Preview websites
and see all of your safety data, you will need an FMCSA-issued U.S.
DOT Number Personal Identification Number (PIN) (NOT a Docket
Number PIN). If you do not know or have forgotten your PIN, you can
request one via http://safer.fmcsa.dot.gov/
and select 'Click here to request your Docket Number PIN and/or
USDOT Number PIN.' Be sure to request a U.S. DOT Number PIN, NOT a
Docket Number PIN.
