2011 In The Convention News - Exceed <strong>the</strong> Need<br />

New EOBR Program Now Available<br />

Exist<strong>in</strong>g BCOs who voluntarily<br />

participate will be loaned at no<br />

charge an Electronic On-Board<br />

Recorder (Qualcomm EOBR<br />

MCP50). This new program<br />

also offers exist<strong>in</strong>g BCOs free<br />

<strong>in</strong>stallation of an MCP50 and a<br />

reduced rate on monthly air-time<br />

charges. Plus, volunteers will<br />

<strong>in</strong>crease <strong>the</strong>ir chances to w<strong>in</strong> a<br />

free truck with five entries <strong>in</strong>to <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>Landstar</strong> Safe <strong>Truck</strong> <strong>Giveaway</strong> at<br />

Appreciation Days <strong>in</strong> January!<br />

“Carriers can no longer afford not to utilize EOBRs to avoid elevated CSA<br />

scores and meet customer demands for CSA performance,” says <strong>Landstar</strong> Vice<br />

President of Compliance Jeannie Gordon. “For BCOs, EOBRs elim<strong>in</strong>ate paper<br />

logs and o<strong>the</strong>r manual compliance processes, ensure that your log is always<br />

current, and offer a great way to prevent CSA po<strong>in</strong>ts!”<br />

Owner-operators submitt<strong>in</strong>g a work history to <strong>Landstar</strong> after August 1, 2012<br />

will be required to equip <strong>the</strong>ir truck with an EOBR.<br />

“It is def<strong>in</strong>itely a sound bus<strong>in</strong>ess move to voluntarily have an EOBR<br />

<strong>in</strong>stalled. By volunteer<strong>in</strong>g, you can avoid <strong>the</strong> costs associated with purchas<strong>in</strong>g<br />

and <strong>in</strong>stall<strong>in</strong>g a unit. <strong>Landstar</strong>’s program also offers a reduction on <strong>the</strong> monthly<br />

service plan cost, AND five entries to w<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> giveaway truck <strong>in</strong> January,”<br />

says Gordon. “O<strong>the</strong>rwise, you run <strong>the</strong> risk of mak<strong>in</strong>g adm<strong>in</strong>istrative errors that<br />

create violations and can lead to <strong>the</strong> BCO hav<strong>in</strong>g to foot <strong>the</strong> bill on his own.”<br />

Exist<strong>in</strong>g BCOs who do not have an EOBR <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir truck and receive<br />

Hours-of-Service violations may not be eligible to participate <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> MCP50<br />

“no charge” program. Through LCAPP, a BCO can purchase an MCP50 for<br />

$699 plus <strong>in</strong>stallation fees. That’s potentially money out of your pocket if<br />

you choose not to participate from <strong>the</strong> start.<br />

For more <strong>in</strong>formation on <strong>Landstar</strong>’s EOBR program, please contact <strong>the</strong><br />

Up to Speed<br />

Surg<strong>in</strong>g Ahead<br />

In an ord<strong>in</strong>ary world, fuel prices<br />

would be stable, freight would be<br />

plentiful, and regulations would be<br />

tempered by a dose of reality.<br />

But <strong>the</strong>se are uncerta<strong>in</strong> times that we<br />

live <strong>in</strong>, marked by an economy <strong>in</strong> flux,<br />

election year politics, fluctuat<strong>in</strong>g fuel<br />

prices, a driver shortage and tougher<br />

government regulations.<br />

One th<strong>in</strong>g’s for sure: Independent<br />

agents, BCOs and o<strong>the</strong>r capacity<br />

providers can all rely on <strong>Landstar</strong>.<br />

While o<strong>the</strong>r companies are struggl<strong>in</strong>g<br />

to emerge from <strong>the</strong> recession, <strong>Landstar</strong><br />

is surg<strong>in</strong>g ahead by virtue of its<br />

dynamic network and by cont<strong>in</strong>u<strong>in</strong>g<br />

to provide agents and owner/operators<br />

with <strong>the</strong> support, resources and<br />

technology <strong>the</strong>y need to deliver safe<br />

and reliable transportation solutions to<br />

customers.<br />

One only has to look as far<br />

as <strong>Landstar</strong>’s 2012 first quarter<br />

performance to see that we’re mov<strong>in</strong>g<br />

<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> right direction. In case you<br />

missed <strong>the</strong> news, it was <strong>the</strong> best first<br />

quarter operat<strong>in</strong>g performance <strong>in</strong><br />

<strong>Landstar</strong> history.<br />

<strong>Landstar</strong> is well-positioned to<br />

meet <strong>the</strong> challenges ahead <strong>in</strong> 2012<br />

and beyond. Ra<strong>the</strong>r than wait and<br />

see which way <strong>the</strong> w<strong>in</strong>d is blow<strong>in</strong>g,<br />

Up to Speed<br />

Grow<strong>in</strong>g Capacity<br />

<strong>Landstar</strong> has been successful <strong>in</strong><br />

grow<strong>in</strong>g truck capacity to meet <strong>the</strong><br />

grow<strong>in</strong>g demand from customers. The<br />

number of BCOs leased to <strong>Landstar</strong><br />

has <strong>in</strong>creased by more than 200 from<br />

<strong>the</strong> middle of 2011 and has <strong>in</strong>creased<br />

by nearly 90 s<strong>in</strong>ce <strong>the</strong> beg<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g<br />

of 2012. While <strong>the</strong> standards for<br />

BCOs rema<strong>in</strong> str<strong>in</strong>gent, <strong>the</strong> process<br />

for leas<strong>in</strong>g on has been streaml<strong>in</strong>ed<br />

through <strong>the</strong> use of a web-based work<br />

history. <strong>Landstar</strong> has created a website<br />

(www.lease2landstar.com) that<br />

allows prospective BCOs to beg<strong>in</strong> to<br />

understand <strong>the</strong> organization and <strong>the</strong><br />

value of becom<strong>in</strong>g a BCO.<br />

New BCOs are not only com<strong>in</strong>g<br />

on board, but <strong>Landstar</strong> has one of<br />

<strong>the</strong> strongest retention rates <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>in</strong>dustry. BCO truck turnover rema<strong>in</strong>s<br />

very low and is evidence that, for <strong>the</strong><br />

right owner/operator, <strong>Landstar</strong> is an<br />

excellent choice. BCOs and agents<br />

cont<strong>in</strong>ue to be very credible recruiters<br />

of owner/operators and we ask that<br />

you cont<strong>in</strong>ue to po<strong>in</strong>t good prospects<br />

to <strong>the</strong> above website or to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Landstar</strong><br />

Recruit<strong>in</strong>g department.<br />

Demand for quality capacity<br />

providers cont<strong>in</strong>ues to be high as<br />

we enter <strong>in</strong>to <strong>the</strong> back half of 2012.<br />

Customers determ<strong>in</strong>e quality based<br />

upon several factors: safety record,<br />

reliability and communications be<strong>in</strong>g<br />

high on <strong>the</strong> list.<br />

“Safety record” is typically<br />

comprised of DOT safety rat<strong>in</strong>g,<br />

CSA scores, and accident & cargo<br />

claim frequency, an area where<br />

<strong>Landstar</strong> has historically performed<br />

well. CSA Fatigue Basic scores<br />

are currently challeng<strong>in</strong>g <strong>Landstar</strong><br />

and represent an area that must be<br />

cont<strong>in</strong>uously monitored. Customers<br />

expect <strong>Landstar</strong> to outperform <strong>in</strong> this<br />

area and <strong>in</strong>creas<strong>in</strong>gly see CSA scores<br />

as paramount to o<strong>the</strong>r safety metrics.<br />

The company has rolled out an EOBR<br />

program to assist <strong>in</strong> atta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong><br />

results we need to achieve.<br />

“Reliability” is determ<strong>in</strong>ed by ontime<br />

pick-up and delivery, someth<strong>in</strong>g<br />

that <strong>Landstar</strong> also does well.<br />

“Communications” is determ<strong>in</strong>ed<br />

by consistency and accuracy of<br />

status report<strong>in</strong>g, such as Arrival at<br />

Shipper, Departure from Shipper,<br />

In-transit and Delivery check calls.<br />

“Communications” is important<br />

to most customers who want to<br />

know where <strong>the</strong>ir product is, and is<br />

an expectation that BCOs should<br />

cont<strong>in</strong>ue to meet us<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> available<br />

tools.<br />

Congratulations Employees of <strong>the</strong> Month<br />

30 YEaRS<br />

Lisa Pate<br />

Vice President, Agent Development<br />

The best part of my job is: “Gett<strong>in</strong>g to work each day<br />

with all my great friends.”<br />

I can’t live without: “My Bible and my coffee <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

morn<strong>in</strong>g.”<br />

The accomplishment I’m most proud of is: “The<br />

science of identify<strong>in</strong>g agent candidates and f<strong>in</strong>ally<br />

conquer<strong>in</strong>g my fear of drown<strong>in</strong>g by gett<strong>in</strong>g my scuba div<strong>in</strong>g<br />

license.”<br />

I still can’t get <strong>the</strong> hang of: “Driv<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> stilettos.”<br />

My greatest <strong>in</strong>spiration at <strong>Landstar</strong> is: “The agents. Without <strong>the</strong>m, I’d be<br />

a checkout clerk. It’s so reward<strong>in</strong>g to watch <strong>the</strong>m grow and develop such great<br />

bus<strong>in</strong>esses. Every day, <strong>the</strong>ir goal is to keep <strong>the</strong>ir customers happy and satisfied –<br />

we can learn a lot from <strong>the</strong>ir attitude.”<br />

Views From <strong>the</strong> Road<br />

Weekend Detour<br />

We had a wonderful detour on Sunday June 3, 2012. We took our<br />

truck and went to <strong>the</strong> Mount Rushmore National Memorial.<br />

I highly recommend it to anyone pass<strong>in</strong>g through Rapid City, South<br />

Dakota. They do not allow tractors and trailers, but will allow bobtails and<br />

straight trucks.<br />

It costs $11.00 for park<strong>in</strong>g and <strong>the</strong> park<strong>in</strong>g pass is good for <strong>the</strong> rest of<br />

<strong>the</strong> year. Mt. Rushmore is located about 30 miles from Rapid City and <strong>the</strong><br />

drive is beautiful. We took lots of pictures and even had breakfast with <strong>the</strong><br />

presidents. It was an experience I will always treasure. This is one of <strong>the</strong><br />

reasons I love my job so much!!!!!!<br />
