This use case shows how ExceleRATE helps companies find the safest commercial drivers by using advanced cognitive testing and on-road evaluations.

Introduction

Hiring safe and reliable commercial drivers is very important for companies. It’s not just about passing the CDL road test; it’s also about ensuring the drivers have the skills and functional abilities necessary to think quickly and make smart decisions on the road. This is where ExceleRATE comes in.

Problem Statement

Many companies struggle to identify the best drivers during the hiring process. Traditional commercial driver tests do not fully evaluate a driver’s cognitive abilities, which are crucial for safe driving. Without the right tools, companies risk hiring drivers who may not be fit for the job, leading to safety issues and higher turnover.

Solution Overview

ExceleRATE provides a comprehensive solution for evaluating commercial drivers, focusing on cognitive performance and functional abilities rather than traditional questionnaires. Before hiring, ExceleRATE uses a task-based cognitive assessment called Vitals. This assessment captures inputs from a touchscreen, which are then processed through our predictive model to identify the candidate's cognitive functional ability

ExceleRATE also plays a crucial role in post-incident analysis. It can identify if a driver has an underlying medical condition contributing to impairment risk. This insight is valuable when conducting a Return To Work assessment after some time has passed following an incident. By focusing on driver impairment risk management, companies can improve driver retention and go beyond compliance, ensuring that drivers have long, safe, and productive careers while exceeding safety regulations.

Implementation

To use ExceleRATE, companies start by integrating it into their recruitment process. Candidates undergo a cognitive performance assessment to measure their Reaction Time, Attention, and Working Memory, all critical abilities for safe driving. Those who are identified as low-risk move on to the cognitive on-road evaluation, where their on-road skills are closely evaluated. The results from these tests help companies identify the best and safest drivers.

 Expected Results/Outcome

By using ExceleRATE, companies can confidently hire the safest drivers, improving commercial driver safety. This leads to better driver retention, fewer accidents, and a strong reputation for quality services beyond compliance. With ExceleRATE, companies ensure that they not only meet but exceed safety standards, keeping communities and everyone on the road safe.
