Compliance with the ELD Mandate
Hours-of-Service Compliance from the Experts
"The Encompass product is great. My favorite part is the customer service. Whenever I've called in needing help, everyone I've worked with has had a thorough answer. When I first started using an ELD, I was not familiar with the technology at all. After only two or three days, it was very easy to use."
Bob Passow
Logistics/Pack House Manager
"We made the decision to switch over to the J. J. Keller Compliance Tablets so our drivers can call support 24/7 and get the help that they need, should they have any issues."
Denise Hall
Corporate Transportation Assistant
"J. J. Keller's compliance tablet is very easy to use. Once you power it up, the login procedure is straight-forward. Our driver's information is already in the app and he can go right to it and start his on-duty hours. The whole process is simple to use, and most importantly, J. J. Keller's customer support is phenomenal."
Woody Cummins
Fleet Manager
"I like how easy the ELD is to use. The main screen of the ELD has all the functions I need right at my fingertips. The technical support is excellent. Customer support is always friendly and knowledgeable."
John D. Rentz Jr.
Owner/Operator
"J. J. Keller has been great to us. Encompass is the premiere electronic logging system. Our drivers love it! Our drivers don't even want to use paper logs anymore."

In 2023, the five most common ELD falsification methods (violations under §395.8(e) False log), were:
- Misusing personal conveyance (395.28 and Interpretation #26, 395.8)
- Logging out of the ELD and keep driving on the unassigned driver profile (395.32)
- Sharing ELD logins among drivers or using a “ghost driver” account (395.22)
- Unplugging the ELD while repositioning (395.20)
- Editing on-duty time to off-duty time (395.2 definition of On-duty time and 395.30)
A driver doesn’t have to use an ELD and can use paper logs on any day when:
- Eligible for a short-haul exception,
- Driving a pre-2000 model year vehicle or a vehicle with a pre-2000 model year engine,
- Engaged in certain driveaway-towaway operations where the vehicle being driven is the cargo being delivered,
- Required to use logs on eight or fewer days within any 30 consecutive days, or
- Operating a CMV rented for a contractual period of 8 days or less.
Let our electronic logging devices (ELDs) track your fleet's GPS data for miles driven within each state and province. Data is transmitted to the Encompass® System where our reporting helps you reconcile and prepare IFTA reporting forms for each state and province electronically, saving you and your drivers time. Easily import fuel card data and audit it against driver hours of service records.
When paired with ELDs, the Encompass® Fleet Management System eliminates missing, illegible or late paperwork; forgotten entries; and erroneous information.
