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 />

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 />

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 />
