Founded in 2015, Kinetic Metrics offers a variety of services related to automotive safety.

Services

  • NHTSA Safety Compliance Consulting & Training
    We assist clients in understanding Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS), SAE Recommended Practices, and other compliance standards that apply to vehicle and equipment designs. Whether you are a startup or a long-standing company, safety and compliance training is a necessity for your employees to stay educated and motivated. Kinetic Metrics can build you a training program from the ground up or update a current program. Let us help your company create a culture of safety- click here to find out more.

  • New Technology Research and Quarterly Newsletter
    We provide insight into new or proposed rules and regulations for advanced driver assistance systems, automated driving systems, and other emerging technologies. We also offer a flat-rate quarterly newsletter on upcoming regulations and standards.

  • Hazard and Trend Analysis
    We have the unique ability to analyze a manufacturer’s data with a similar insight as present-day NHTSA. Observing trends in data helps us recommend the best way to handle potential safety-related issues. Our approach to hazard and trend analysis can apply to other industries as well. We have even developed a dashboard tool to assist in the collection and analysis of data.

  • Importation & International Standards
    We routinely work with companies located outside of the U.S. to assist them in understanding options for vehicle importation (Box 7, Register Importer, etc.), including analysis comparing international standards to standards in the United States. This is important for new entrants requiring temporary importation of ADS-equipped vehicles.

  • Part 555 Exemptions & NHTSA Interpretations

    If you need an interpretation or exemption, our team has the technical expertise to draft the appropriate letter to NHTSA or other relevant agencies.

  • NHTSA TREAD Act
    We provide customer support for understanding and submitting NHTSA early warning reports, as part of the NHTSA TREAD Act Submission requirement. This includes vetting consumer complaints, warranty data field reports, and death and injury data submissions. We can submit any recall-related information as a third party, so we take care of all the paperwork for you. 

  • Transportation Research and Planning
    We research a variety of transportation planning and safety topics. We can conduct surveys, perform basic research, and provide strategies to move projects forward. We recently completed a project for the National Park Service to generate a signage and transportation plan for two of their park sites.

  • Audits
    With our past experiences on Monitor Teams, we know how to assess a company’s current processes, roles, and responsibilities and provide recommendations to streamline their workload and perspective better.

  • Safety Investigations
    Already have an issue that needs to be analyzed? Our investigative experience provides the tools and knowledge to research and analyze a potential defect and give insight into the best remedy.   

  • Subject Matter Expertise
    Whether you are looking to build a team or need more insight into the automotive space, Kinetic Metrics can provide subject matter expertise on a wide range of automotive topics. We have previously worked with financial investors, IT & security firms, and law firms. Our knowledge and background will give your team the cutting edge it needs. Learn more in our blog post here.
