Your fleet is not all over-the-road tractors. CarrierMark grades every unit the FMCSA regulates, on-highway or vocational, two ways, and ranks the exposure so the gaps get fixed in the right order.
This page showcases the product. Run the two scores on a real carrier inside the live app.
This file would mostly clear an audit but carries high litigation exposure. That gap is what a plaintiff’s lawyer attacks.
Illustrative scores, not carrier data
Would this file survive a DOT audit? Whether the record would pass a compliance review under 49 C.F.R. Part 385. The regulator’s question.
How does it play after a crash? How strongly the file supports a negligent hiring, retention, or entrustment case. The plaintiff’s lawyer’s question.
A boom truck, a pumper, or a water tanker carries the same FMCSA obligations as an over-the-road tractor, and a crash involving one lands in the same courtroom. Mixed fleets tend to fail on the vocational units nobody thought of as trucks.
Compliance tooling built for OTR fleets skips those assets, so the gap sits unmeasured until an audit or a lawsuit surfaces it. CarrierMark exists to put every unit with a DOT number under the same two scores, so the record is complete before anyone else pulls it.
Boom trucks, concrete pumpers, dump trucks, water tankers. If it carries a DOT number, it is in the record.
Compliance status and litigation exposure for each asset, kept as separate scores rather than blended into one.
Findings sort by litigation weight, so a mixed fleet knows which unit to address first this week.
Vocational and highway equipment under one file, sealed the moment you decide.
Illustrative promo, not carrier data
One system of record for every company the FMCSA touches.
Define your selection criteria once: operating authority, insurance on file, safety rating, out-of-service history, whatever your standard requires. Policies are versioned, so you can prove which rules were in force on any given date.
At selection, Vault pulls the carrier’s public FMCSA record and seals it: a timestamped snapshot of exactly what was knowable on the day of your decision. Raw data preserved as pulled. Nothing summarized away.
When business requires an exception, it runs through a structured override with a documented justification and an approver. No free-text landmines. No silent workarounds.
One click produces the decision-date record: the sealed snapshot, the policy version in force, the decision trail, bound in a tamper-evident chain proving nothing was altered after the fact.

What you decide is sealed the moment you decide it: the carrier’s public FMCSA record and the decision you made, bound in a timestamped document with a cryptographic hash and a verified chain. The file proves on its face that nothing was altered after the seal, so years later the answer to what you knew and what you did is a document, not a memory.
Vault is not an onboarding packet tool. It is not a monitoring subscription. It is not a carrier safety predictor. Keep the platforms you use to find, onboard, and track carriers. Vault sits alongside them as the evidence layer.
And one thing we will never do: tell you a carrier is “safe.” Nobody can promise you a carrier is safe, and a vendor who does is drafting a plaintiff’s exhibit. Vault documents the thing the law actually asks of you: reasonable care, exercised with the information available, recorded when it happened.
Vocational equipment ends up in the same discovery requests as tractors. CarrierMark keeps each unit’s record ready before the demand arrives.
We are onboarding a founding cohort of 8 operations before general availability.
