The Performance and Registration Information Systems Management (PRISM) Program and the Commercial Vehicle Information Systems and Networks (CVISN) Program are closely related programs managed by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). While both programs seek to improve motor carrier safety through information exchange, they have distinct objectives. They have similar, but not identical, requirements for the exchange of interstate registration credential data with the states but different processing methodologies for updating and processing that data. The two programs share the Safety and Fitness Electronic Records (SAFER) commercial vehicle information exchange system as their common data repository, which is more formally called the SAFER/PRISM Central Site (SPCS). This paper provides background on each program and discusses options for operational implementation of both programs. The intended audience includes state Commercial Vehicle Operations (CVO) program managers who have implemented or may decide to implement both CVISN and PRISM in their states, and would like more information on the relationship of the two programs and practical options to integrated deployment. |
