The J. J. Keller DataSense app is used by drivers associated with clients of J. J. Keller® Managed Services for mobile submission of required documents, such as driver’s licenses, medical cards, motor vehicle reports, driver releases, road test certifications and more. These documents are part of a compliant driver qualification (DQ) file. Drivers and employees can submit documents directly to J. J. Keller through this app on behalf of their company. Drivers, employees and their location managers will receive notifications of the status of these documents. J. J. Keller inspects all submitted documents to ensure they are accurate and complete. Often, DQ files include outdated documents that can place a client at risk, which is why J. J. Keller places priority on the actual review of all documents submitted.
