Driver qualification files

Every document, on file, before the auditor asks

The DQ file that is always complete

The Vault holds every driver, vehicle and company document in one place, shows you what is missing or about to expire, and hands an auditor a complete package in minutes instead of days.

Why it matters

A missing document is a violation you already have

49 CFR 391

Sets out what must be in every driver qualification file, and for how long. An auditor checks the file, not your intentions.

Days, not hours

That is how long it takes most carriers to assemble files from filing cabinets, email and phones when an audit letter arrives.

Every driver

One incomplete file counts the same as ten. Compliance reviews sample files, and one gap opens the whole fleet to scrutiny.

Carriers that can produce a complete, dated file for any driver on request are the ones that walk out of a compliance review with a clean rating.

The gap

Paperwork is nobody's full-time job

Files live in five places

Medical cards on a phone, MVRs in email, applications in a cabinet, annual reviews nowhere. Nothing is wrong until someone asks for all of it at once.

Expirations slip past

A medical certificate or CDL that lapsed last month is a driver who has been out of qualification since then, and nobody noticed.

Drivers cannot send you things

Getting a photo of a new document from a driver on the road means texts, attachments and a manager doing the filing by hand.

How it works

Set up once. Keep it current with almost no effort.

You, once

1. Add your fleet

Enter your company, locations, drivers and assets. The Vault builds the required document list for each one.

You or the driver

2. Upload documents

Drop a PDF or a phone photo into the queue, or send a driver their own upload link and let them do it from the cab.

Automatic

3. Filed and tracked

Each document lands on the right driver or vehicle, in the right slot, with its date. Missing and expiring items stay flagged until they are not.

Automatic

4. Audit-ready, always

Pull a complete, current package for any driver, vehicle or the whole company in one download.

Capabilities

Built for the person who actually keeps the files

Driver qualification files

Application, MVR, medical certificate, road test, annual review, and every other required item, per driver, with dates.

Vehicle and asset records

Registrations, inspections and maintenance documents on each power unit and trailer.

Company and location documents

Operating authority, insurance, permits and policies, filed once at the company or terminal level.

Missing and expiring at a glance

The dashboard shows what is absent and what expires soon, so the work list writes itself.

Driver upload link

A private link per driver. They take a photo of the new card, it lands in your queue, you file it in one click.

Upload queue

Everything that arrives waits in one place until a person confirms where it belongs. Nothing is misfiled silently.

Private document viewer

Documents open behind a cover and are shown only on request, so a screen left open does not show a licence number.

One-click audit package

Download the current file set for a driver, a vehicle or the whole company as a single archive.

Audit defence

What you can show an auditor

  • A complete driver qualification file for any driver, with every required item present and dated.
  • Proof that expiring credentials were caught and replaced before they lapsed.
  • Vehicle inspection and maintenance records tied to each unit.
  • Company authority, insurance and permits, current and in one place.
  • An upload history showing when each document arrived and who filed it.
  • The whole package as a single download, produced while the auditor waits.

Owner-operators

One truck, one file, no filing cabinet

You are the driver, the safety manager and the office. The Vault keeps your own DQ file and truck records complete, tells you when your medical card or annual inspection is due, and gives you the package when a roadside officer or an auditor asks.

FAQ

Questions carriers ask

What counts as an active driver?

A driver on your roster who has not been archived or separated. Drivers you mark inactive or give a separation date keep their files, but do not count toward your plan.

Which documents does it track?

Everything a driver qualification file requires under 49 CFR 391, plus vehicle records and company-level documents such as authority, insurance and permits. Document types can be tailored to your operation.

How do drivers send documents?

Each driver can be given a private upload link. They open it on their phone, take a photo or pick a file, and it arrives in your upload queue with their name on it. You confirm the document type and it is filed.

What file types are accepted?

PDF, Word documents and JPG or PNG photos.

Can I run more than one company?

Yes. Multiple companies and terminals can sit under one account, and your driver count is measured across all of them.

Is my data secure?

Every account is isolated to its own companies, sign-in requires a username, password and licence key, and documents are only shown when a signed-in user asks to see one.

Can I upgrade later?

Yes. The Account page inside The Vault links to your billing portal, where you can move to a larger plan when your fleet grows.
