TAPA
TAPA’s mission is to bring together manufacturers, logistic service providers, law enforcement agencies, insurers, and security service providers to minimize supply chain disruptions and losses, as well as optimize our members’ supply chains’ resiliency. TAPA achieves this through the development and application of global security standards, recognized industry practices, technology, education, benchmarking, regulatory collaboration, and the proactive identification of crime trends and supply chain security threats.
The Transported Asset Protection Association’s (TAPA) Security Standards act as a worldwide benchmark for supply chain security and resilience, providing guidance, processes and tools which reduce loss exposure, protect assets, and reduce the costs of cargo theft. The TAPA Security Standards are respected globally as the best-in-class industry standards for supply chain resilience.
FDA CERTIFICATION
An FDA registered warehouse is a storage location, food facility, or fulfillment center that is registered with the FDA to store food, dietary supplements, drugs (prescription/medication), and other goods that are regulated by the FDA. Additionally, registered warehouses follow the Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP) as defined by the FDA.
FMCSA – SAFETY SCORES
The Safety Measurement System (SMS) website by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) offers performance data on motor carriers. It helps identify carriers posing the greatest safety risks for interventions. The SMS provides public access to inspection, crash data, and safety measures, excluding some compliance information due to the FAST Act of 2015. Carriers can log in to view complete safety data and prioritize actions to improve road safety.
FMCSA – REGISTRATION STATUS
The FMCSA registration page provides essential information and resources for motor carriers, brokers, freight forwarders, and other entities involved in commercial transportation. It outlines the requirements for obtaining a USDOT number and operating authority, offers guidance on maintaining and updating registrations, and includes links to relevant forms, regulations, and support services. The page also highlights the process for registering new entities and updating existing registrations to comply with federal regulations.
FMCSA – INSURANCE INFORMATION
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) Insurance Filing Requirements page outlines the insurance and legal process agent documents that motor carriers, freight forwarders, and brokers must file before operating authority is granted. It details the specific forms required, such as public liability, cargo insurance, and surety bond forms, along with the submission process and guidelines for ensuring accurate and timely filings. This ensures compliance with federal regulations and proper documentation for legal and insurance purposes.
