Building Your Own UCR System - Part 5

Unregistered Carriers on 7/24/2009 - 2870
Unregistered Carriers on 7/27/2009 - 2835
Yesterday's Registrations (IL system) - 52 / $4795 (avg $92)

So what situations "justify" pursuit of doing your own system?

I can think of at least two: 1) when you're doing "double entry" and 2) when you have a one-stop-shop effort.

"Double entry" is when you are entering stuff into your own computers and then going to the Indiana site to re-enter the information so that it will get forwarded to the Feds.

"One-stop-shop" is when your state provides the carrier with the ability to take care of all of his trucking stuff at one place - usually via the Web - including UCR.

Doing these two things does not mean that you should automatically pursue your own system, but it does, in my opinion, beg the question.
