Intermodal Driver Database (IDD) implementation in at NS facilities

On Monday, June 1, 2020, Norfolk Southern will begin using the Intermodal Association of North America’s (IANA) Intermodal Driver Database (IDD) for drayage management. Once implemented, Motor Carriers will be solely responsible for adding and removing drivers from their Standard Carrier Alpha Code (SCAC) and for updating driver information through their Uniform Intermodal Interchange and Facilities Access Agreement (UIIA) account.

IDD updates will occur every 30 minutes, so motor carriers should anticipate that some delay will take place between when driver entries are made in the UIIA interface and when Norfolk Southern receives them.
Only drivers that are registered in IDD will be permitted access to Norfolk Southern intermodal facilities. Ahead of the transition, and to ensure continued access to Norfolk Southern facilities, it is important that all drivers verify their CDL information is stored correctly with Norfolk Southern.
