Nex Trucking Compliance

The problem

Small motor carriers often fail FMCSA audits not because of unsafe driving, but because of missing or incomplete paperwork. Maintaining Driver Qualification (DQ) files, Clearinghouse queries, and IFTA filings manually leads to expensive fines and lost operating authority.

What it does

• Generates complete Driver Qualification (DQ) files with specific 49 CFR 391.51 retention logic.
• Orchestrates new driver onboarding workflows including Clearinghouse consents and pre-employment drug test tracking.
• Calculates IFTA quarterly fuel tax obligations across multiple jurisdictions based on mileage and fuel receipts.
• Produces new entrant safety audit readiness checklists to prevent automatic failure triggers.
• Tracks critical expiration dates for medical certificates, annual MVRs, and UCR registrations.

Why this beats prompting it yourself

Generic LLMs often hallucinate specific DOT regulations or mix up CDL and non-CDL requirements. This skill uses verified June 2026 mandates, including exact CFR citations and the 50 percent random drug testing rate, ensuring your documentation stands up to a professional audit.

Use cases

• Onboarding a new CDL driver while ensuring all 49 CFR 391.23 safety history requests are sent.
• Preparing for a New Entrant Safety Audit within the first 12 months of operation.
• Calculating quarterly IFTA returns to avoid the 10 percent late filing penalty.
• Managing annual Clearinghouse limited queries for a fleet of owner-operators.
