DAC services, a subsidiary of USIS based in Tulsa, Ok has long been the "blunt instrument" of choice for blacklisting and background checks used in pre-employment screeening by Carriers hiring drivers.
Flash forward to 2010.. CSA 210- NIC Technologies of Olatha, Ks has been awarded the contract to be the "third party provider" and Keeper of the Index of the new Driver Safety Management System & Carrier Safety Scores... I.E. CSA 2010. Since NIC will have all Inspections, MVR, Drug Testing, Images of Driver DOT Long Forms, Accident Reports--- leaving only the Previous Employer Work history reports( I.E. Driver Work Proformance was- Sat., Unsatifactory, other) missing. Will DAC be placed out of business in Favor of "one stop - shopping" by employers "pre-screening" potental new hires? Since, the Social Security Administration can also provide Previous employer varification. Seems as if DAC will be left with only one useful piece of data- previous employer comments on "quality" of work, which is usually more accuately obtained --by directly contacting previous employers.

DAC or not....Either way....the spirit of the info remains the same.
The data base will reflect if you are legal to be hired... or conversely to be let go from the job you already hold. The Letters to drivers and companies will begin appearing shortly revoking Authority to operate and revoking CDL privileges to who ever doesn't measure up. This is gonna get messy

The information on the entity which won the contract can be found below and with other sources: Expediters Online.com In The News CSA 2010: Your new company, driver safety credit report By Jami Jones, Senior Editor, Land Line Oct 27, 2009 - 8:52:31 AM As for Will DAC be replaced...well that's what my post has the ??? at the end... but, I'm speculating that it will or USIS will soon buy/take over the NIC company ... might be worth looking at the stock prices?
