AI-enabled tools are rapidly transforming trucking operations, from dispatch and routing to safety monitoring and back-office automation. But the speed of adoption has outpaced many fleets’ ability to evaluate how these systems use their data, who is accountable when something goes wrong, and how to distinguish a credible AI vendor from a wrapper around someone else’s model. Without a clear governance strategy, motor carriers are often left negotiating AI risk, accountability, and compliance one contract at a time.
This webinar introduces the upcoming NMFTA AI Governance Framework, a practical resource designed to help trucking organizations deploy AI securely, responsibly, and efficiently. Attendees will explore the controls outlined in the framework, understand how they align with recognized standards including AIUC-1, ISO 42001, and the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, and learn how those controls translate into trucking-specific guidance fleets can apply regardless of size or cybersecurity maturity.
Built for IT leaders, cybersecurity practitioners, and operations executives, this session provides actionable insight into governing AI adoption without slowing business operations or innovation.
Learning Outcomes
Attendees will learn how to:
- Identify the key governance and security risks associated with AI-enabled trucking technologies
- Evaluate AI vendors and understand accountability considerations tied to third-party AI models
- Apply practical AI governance controls within fleet and logistics environments
- Map AI governance activities to frameworks including AIUC-1, ISO 42001, and the NIST AI Risk Management Framework
- Translate technical AI governance concepts into operational policies and procedures fleets can implement
- Build a scalable approach to AI oversight that balances innovation, security, and operational efficiency
