How does IEP third-party chassis rebilling work?

When a motor carrier repairs a pool chassis (e.g., replacing blown tires, broken twist locks, or cracked air brake hoses), the labor and parts are rebilled to the Intermodal Equipment Provider (IEP) following standardized IANA M&R labor rate schedules.

How does Exspeedite track chassis repairs and shop mechanics?

Exspeedite manages mechanic timeclocks, parts inventory barcodes, DVIR defect tie-ins, and generates electronic IANA-compliant M&R invoice packages.

Chassis Fleet Maintenance & Repair (M&R) Mechanic Work Order Hub

Enterprise maintenance shop operating system for intermodal chassis fleets: automate mechanic work orders, manage spare parts inventory, enforce 90-day BIT/FMCSA inspections, and recover 100% of third-party IEP rebills.

Shop Mechanic TimeClock

Mechanics clock directly into digital work orders via ruggedized shop floor tablets, tracking labor hours by job code (brakes, lights, welding, tires) with parts inventory barcode scanning.

Automated IEP Rebilling

Repairs made to pooled equipment (DCLI, TRAC, Flexi-Van) automatically generate IANA-compliant M&R electronic invoices, attaching pre-repair photos and tire casing measurements to prevent rejection.

90-Day Periodic Inspection Clock

Federal FMCSA 396.17 and California BIT regulations mandate periodic chassis safety certifications. Automated countdown timers flag chassis approaching expiration before gate turnaways occur.
