3. CVISN - Commercial Vehicle Information
Systems and Networks
CVISN is the collection of state, federal and private sector information systems and communication networks that support commercial vehicle operations.
CVISN components apply emerging technologies to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of state and private CVO stakeholders in the three broad functional areas of safety information exchange, credentials administration, and electronic screening.

The CVISN Architecture, a portion of the National ITS Architecture, provides a technical framework which describes how ITS/CVO elements fit together into an overall system.
Added ASAP MCDC to Carrier column. Added ASAP Admin Mgt/CAPRI to Core Infrastructure (FHWA area). Removed ASAP from State column.
START OF CHANGE REQUEST...Changed SAFETYNET to SAFETYNET/AVALANCHE.
Changed IRP to Registration. Changed ASAP Admin Mgt to ASAP Analysis Mgt per Volpe (Mitchell) advice. Rearranged boxes to put Pilot systems at top of each list. Changed CVIEW to CVIEW/Data Mailbox. Sorted communication service examples in alphabetical order. Greyed out ASAP, since not really part of Pilot.
Added CAPRI Compliance Reviews) to State column. Clarified ASPEN function by adding (Inspections).
Corrected spelling of “Register”. Added LSI/LM to Titling. Changed Registration back to IRP.
Based on comments from KER, changed roadside block to be RES [instead of Electronic Clearance], Citation & Accident System [instead of Citation & Accident]. Also added LSI/LM boxes to RES & ASPEN.
Reworked roadside systems, after review with KSS, JAS. Changed caps on HazMat. END OF CHANGE REQUEST BASELINE CHANGE...
START of CHANGE REQUEST... Added “/Intrastate” to IRP box. END of CHANGE REQUEST
START OF CHANGE REQUEST ... Group Core Infrastructure Systems into Multi-State and FHWA. END OF OF CHANGE REQUEST.
START OF CHANGE REQUEST...Add Internet & GUI to Carrier Systems block. END OF CHANGE REQUEST.
START OF CHANGE REQUEST...Add Treasury System to State Systems block; shift ASPEN & Citation & Accident to safety segment of State Systems. END OF CHANGE REQUEST
should have been part of Change SAFER/CVIEW GUI to SafeVUE.
(and earlier)
CRF Remove SafeVUE and State Safety information System. Change Internet Applications to Internet Tools. Drop “/Data Mailbox” from both SAFER and CVIEW. Add WebCAT.
CRF 311. Add categories for each group of systems. Remove many carrier systems. Change Taxnet to FTS 2000.
CRF Add E-Screening Enrollment.
CRF Remove UCR. Add RSPA HazMat, Licensing & Insurance, and SSRS.
KER requests changing “CAT” to something less specific. Accordingly, changed to “Credentialing System (e.g., CAT)

5. Definition of CVISN Level 1 Deployment
An organizational framework for cooperative system development has been established among state agencies and motor carriers.
A State CVISN System Design has been established that conforms to the CVISN Architecture & can evolve to include new technology & capabilities
All the following elements of 3 capability areas have been implemented using applicable architectural guidelines, operational concepts, & standards:
Safety Information Exchange
ASPEN (or equivalent) at all major inspection sites
Connection to SAFER
CVIEW (or equivalent) for snapshot exchange within state and to other states
Credentials Administration
End-to-end processing (I.e., carrier application, state application processing, payment, credential issuance) of at least IRP & IFTA credentials; ready to extend to other credentials (intrastate, titling, OS/OW, carrier registration, HAZMAT)
Connection to IRP & IFTA Clearinghouses
At least 10% of the transaction volume handled electronically; ready to bring on more carriers as carriers sign up; ready to extend to branch offices where applicable
Electronic Screening
Implemented at a minimum of one fixed or mobile inspection site
Ready to replicate at other sites

Electronic Screening provides for:
Screening vehicles that pass a roadside check station based on identifiers read
from the transponder, correlated with snapshot safety/credentials information
Determining whether further inspection or verification of credentials is required
and taking appropriate actions

A&S Expert:
An Architecture & Standards Expert provides support to help assess whether the system is in conformance.
Validate Tests in CVISN Test Facility
FMCSA supports the development and maintenance of the
interoperability tests. States execute the tests.
The state personnel know how to operate their systems, so they still execute the interoperability tests.
The V&V agent is very familiar with the tests (from supporting several states) and can help the state tailor the procedures and data as needed. The V&V agent can also evaluate the test results, since pass/fail criteria are the same across states. 18
