RE: TREAD act

Dale -

Do you have a Web address where we can get more information? I assume this
is a government requirement, but haven't heard of it until your e-mail.

   Thanks - Joan

This is a question for all MAPICS users that produce a product controlled by
NHTSA:

Are you all aware of the new TREAD reporting act?  We have to have recording
systems in place by 4/1/03.  Sounds like a good add-on to COM/CSM, to me.  I
am curious as to if anyone is working on this, or if you know of an
available application to handle this that is integrated to MAPICS.  There
are some SERIOUS fines for non-compliance, ranging from
$5,000-to-$15,000,000/day.  If there isn't something out there already, or
if MAPICS isn't doing anything regarding it, I'll have to do something with
Integrator - not that big a deal, except for the government-mandated
reporting in multi-sheet Excel format....
