The National Motor Vehicle Title Information System (NMVTIS), which is operated by AAMVA, was created to enable states and others to gain instant and reliable access to information maintained by other states pertaining to the titling of automobiles and thereby allow titling jurisdictions to instantly transmit and verify title, brand, and odometer information on the paper title against the electronic record from the state that issued the title.
NMVTIS is part of a larger vision that creates a complete history of a vehicle from its birth (manufacture) to death (dismantled or crushed) known as vehicle lifecycle administration.
As the majority of jurisdictions using NMVTIS in their day-to-day titling activities grew, questions were raised concerning the business procedures and practices used by jurisdictions when reporting and interpreting vehicle title, history, and brand information consistently. These issues were first brought to the members of the NMVTIS Working Group, which was tasked with providing input relating to technical aspects of NMVTIS and not business policy and procedures. As part of AAMVA’s role as system operator, AAMVA determined the need for stakeholder groups to provide input and guidance on their particular program area. AAMVA determined that a group more focused on state business processes should be established. As a result, the NMVTIS Business Rules Working Group was established in the summer of 2012. The Business Rules Working Group is made up of representatives from jurisdictions in all four of AAMVA’s regions. These jurisdictions represented the various modes of participation in NMVTIS, specifically, fully integrated online, batch, or some combination of the two.
After the working group was established, it reviewed a number of previously identified issues and determined that the solution to many of the concerns was to create best practices to ensure that jurisdictions were developing their business policies and practices in a consistent manner. The intent of these best practices is to provide the title and registration program managers with information and a resource to assist them in ensuring that NMVTIS works hand in hand with the jurisdiction’s title practices.
