Request Secure Transit Audit

Core Mandates for High-Value Defense Shipments

Strict adherence to Department of Defense and National Industrial Security Program Operating Manual (NISPOM) standards.

Continuous CSS Custody

Constant Surveillance Service (CSS) mandates that one qualified, cleared driver remain inside the cab or within 25 feet of the conveyance at all times, maintaining unobstructed line-of-sight during stops.

SNS Satellite Tracking

Satellite Motor Surveillance (SNS) delivers continuous position reporting to SDDC operations centers with automated deviation alerts if the vehicle ventures over 0.25 miles from the approved military route corridor.

DoD Safe Haven Routing

In the event of severe weather, vehicle mechanical failure, or road blockage, drivers must divert directly to pre-designated Department of Defense military installations approved for Secure Holding or Safe Haven.

Electronic Seal Verification

High-security ISO 17712 barrier bolt seals combined with active RFID/BLE electronic sensors record the exact millisecond of any rear door latch breach, generating instant cryptographic tamper logs.

Frequently Asked Defense Freight Questions

What qualifies a carrier to haul Arms, Ammunition & Explosives for the DoD?

Carriers must hold active carrier qualification from the Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (SDDC), a valid DCSA Facility Security Clearance (FCL), team drivers with active individual Secret clearances, and approved electronic Satellite Motor Surveillance (SNS) integration.

What is the difference between Safe Haven and Secure Holding?

Safe Haven provides temporary refuge on a military installation for vehicles transporting Class 1.1, 1.2, or 1.3 explosives during life-threatening emergencies or civil disturbances. Secure Holding is an administrative holding area for classified material or AA&E while awaiting delivery appointment clearance.

How does Exspeedite TMS secure classified defense freight data?

Exspeedite employs end-to-end FIPS 140-3 validated encryption for in-transit and at-rest freight records, role-based access control (RBAC), multi-factor hardware key authentication, and strict masking of defense bill of lading (BOL) commodity descriptions across public interfaces.
