Abstract:

The Commercial Skills Test Information Management System (CSTIMS) was developed as a Web-based, software-as-a-service system to prevent and deter fraud perpetrated by third-party commercial driver’s license (CDL) examiners in the portion of the CDL licensing process involving the skills test. This Final Report and Self-Sustainability Plan were developed to fulfill the Cooperative Agreement DTMC75-08-H-00003, specifically, to “assess the self-sustainability of CSTIMS and create a transition plan to determine what fees should be charged to the States to make CSTIMS self-sustaining.” It was also developed to clearly document and depict the overall objectives and scope of the project. Summarized are all enhancements and improvements made between pilot testing in 2008 and 2012, including those relating to the CDL Testing and Commercial Driver’s Permit Test Standards of May 2011. The main focus of this Self-Sustainability Plan is to provide a recommendation for maintaining the system once the development stage of the project is completed. Three fee allocation approaches were considered based on the number of 1) CSTIMS users in a State, 2) CDL applicants in a State, and 3) commercial drivers in a State. The most practical fee allocation approach to implement is one based on the number of commercial drivers in a State because it is the number that: 1) is most easily obtainable, 2) is known to all States before deciding to participate in CSTIMS, 3) does not require a separate audit, and 4) introduces the least error in a calculation of fee allocation.
