Rigorous vetting framework verifying carrier legal compliance, insurance validity, financial standing, and fleet safety.
The Carrier Qualification Programme (CQP) is a multi-step compliance process that every transport carrier must pass before receiving freight tender access. It validates commercial trade licenses, EU Community licenses, CMR liability insurance coverage, and vehicle safety records.
Automated verification gate. Carriers with expiring insurance or invalid VAT status are automatically throttled from submitting RFQ bids by smart contract logic.
CQP status = Binary AND gate across: VIES_Valid, CMR_Insurance_Active, Community_License_Verified, Driver_Safety_Rating >= 4.0.
CQP qualification verifies eligibility to bid; it is not an endorsement of creditworthiness for un-escrowed credit lines.
