The Standard Carrier Alpha Code (SCAC) is a unique two-to-four-letter code used to identify transportation companies. NMFTA developed the SCAC identification codes in the mid 1960's to facilitate computerization in the transportation industry.

The Standard Carrier Alpha Code is the recognized transportation company identification code used in the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Accredited Standards Committee (ASC) X12 and United Nations EDIFACT approved electronic data interchange (EDI) transaction sets such as the 856 Advance Ship Notice, the 850 Purchase Order and all motor, rail and water carrier transactions where carrier identification is required. The SCAC is required on tariffs filed with the Surface Transportation Board (STB). The United States Bureau of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has mandated the use of the SCAC for their Automated Commercial Environment (ACE), Automated Manifest (AMS) and Pre-Arrival Processing (PAPS) Systems. SCACs are used in the Food and Drug Administrations (FDA) Prior Notice System Interface (PNSI) used for tracking imported food. SCACs are required when doing business with all U.S. Government agencies and with many commercial shippers including, but not limited to, those in the automobile, petroleum, forest products, and chemical industries as well as suppliers to retail businesses and carriers engaged in railroad piggyback trailer and ocean container drayage. Carriers who use the Uniform Intermodal Interchange Facilities Access Agreement (UIIA) are required to maintain a valid SCAC. The petroleum industry uses SCACs in their integrated software programs that expedite the movement of bills of lading, pipeline tickets, product transfer orders, and inventory data. Many commercial shippers and receivers utilize SCACs in their freight bill audit and payment systems.

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), along with the Department of Transportation (DOT), requires that persons subject to the commercial driver’s license (CDL) requirements and their employers follow alcohol and drug testing rules.

An association, corporation, partnership, proprietorship, trust, or individual that has legal standing in the eyes of the law. A legal entity has legal capacity to enter into agreements or contracts, assume obligations, incur and pay debts, sue and be sued in its own right, and to be held responsible for its actions.
When setting up a new company two options are to incorporate and set up a corporation (Inc.) or to set up a limited liability company (LLC). Both provide the benefit of personal liability protection, where your personal assets are protected from claims against the corporation. This is a major benefit as if the company fails or happens to be sued you will not end up also losing your personal assets. There are, however, significant differences between the two but we are here to help guide through the differences.

Inc.

• Minimize Taxes - Depending on the income your business generates you can potentially keep business income and personal income (taken through salary) in lower tax brackets. Splitting income in this way can minimize your overall tax burden.
• Widespread Acceptance - As LLC's are a relatively new concept it can sometimes be difficult to obtain funding or access to certain vendors who prefer to deal with corporations.
• Going Public - An LLC cannot be publicly traded and as a result any company looking to grow and eventually either go public or be acquired by a venture capitalist will need to be a corporation.
• Extra Taxes - Corporate income is not subject to Social Security or Medicare taxes, whereas an LLC being structured as a personal income flow through will see income subject to these taxes.
• Additional Benefits - When you have a C corporation you can pay yourself certain benefits like life insurance and parking without being subject to personal tax on the benefit. With an S corporation, LLC, or sole proprietorship these fringe benefits are taxable for anyone holding more than 2% of the business.

LLC

• Filing Requirements - Corporations are required to file a fair amount of ongoing 'admin' paper work related to articles of incorporation, holding and recording director and shareholder meetings, and holding shareholder votes on major decisions (even if there are only 2-3 shareholders). All this needs to be documented and recorded and can be cumbersome for business owners. An LLC doesn't need to do any of this.
  
• Single Taxation - An LLC is a flow through entity for tax purposes and doesn't pay taxes on its own behalf. All income flows through to the owners who record income on their personal tax returns.
• Ownership Flexibility - LLC's have more flexibility in terms of who can own them, particularly when compared to S corporations that have extensive limits on the number of owners and where they can reside.
• Deductibility of Expenses - LLC losses can be deducted against your other regular income when they are incurred. This cannot be done in corporate business structures.
