BAKER CONSULTING LLC: WATFORD CITY, North Dakota Trucking Company
BAKER CONSULTING LLC is a small fleet operating out of WATFORD CITY, North Dakota with USDOT number 2629525. The company operates 18 power units and has no published FMCSA safety rating (most active carriers are unrated unless they have undergone a compliance review). Based on our analysis of federal safety data, BAKER CONSULTING LLC has a FileFlo Carrier Intelligence Score (CIS) of 60/100, classified as Moderate Risk.
FMCSA Safety Record & Inspection History
BAKER CONSULTING LLC has undergone 18 recorded DOT inspections. The vehicle out-of-service rate is 16.7%, which is below the national average of 20.72%, suggesting solid vehicle maintenance practices. The driver out-of-service rate is 11.1%, above the national average of 5.51%. Common causes include hours-of-service violations, expired medical certificates, and CDL issues.
Recorded Violations and Out-of-Service Status
The public FMCSA record for BAKER CONSULTING LLC carries 18 recorded violations, and the most recent inspection on file is dated September 14, 2026. Across 18 recorded inspections, the record carries 2 driver out-of-service violations and 4 vehicle out-of-service violations.
A recorded violation is what an inspector wrote down at the roadside. It is not a penalty, and it is not an amount owed: FMCSA assesses civil penalties only after a compliance review classifies specific cited violations. The step that changes this record is the document behind each line, so the next move is to see which records an investigator would ask for and which of them exist today.
What a 60/100 Carrier Intelligence Score Means
The Carrier Intelligence Score is FileFlo's own summary of three public FMCSA components for BAKER CONSULTING LLC: the safety rating, the inspection pass rate and the out-of-service rate against the national average. It is not an FMCSA score, and FMCSA does not use it to choose carriers for an investigation. 60 out of 100 falls in FileFlo's Moderate Risk band.
Authority Type, Hazmat Status, and Operating Profile
BAKER CONSULTING LLC is classified by FMCSA as an interstate carrier.
The carrier holds an Private Property;Authorized For Hire classification, meaning it transports cargo or passengers for compensation under FMCSA operating authority and is subject to MC-number requirements at 49 CFR Part 365.
BAKER CONSULTING LLC is not flagged in FMCSA Census as a hazmat carrier (HM indicator: N), so the carrier is not subject to the additional 49 CFR Subchapter C hazmat regulations.
Operational range per MCS-150 filing: interstate within 100 miles (short-haul, 13 drivers). The 100-mile boundary matters because drivers operating within a 100-air-mile radius qualify for the short-haul exception under 49 CFR 395.1(e)(1), which removes the requirement to maintain RODS for the day.
Self-reported MCS-150 annual mileage: 300,000 miles. MCS-150 mileage feeds the FMCSA SafeStat exposure denominator: drastically understated mileage can artificially inflate CSA BASIC percentile scores by reducing the per-mile exposure baseline. Updates are required every 24 months under 49 CFR 390.19.
Fleet Composition and Driver Profile
Owned equipment per the FMCSA Census filing: 5 tractors, 9 trailers. Owned-vs-leased equipment matters for compliance documentation, owned trailers require the carrier to retain annual inspection certificates under 49 CFR 396.17, while leased trailers shift that documentation responsibility to the lease agreement.
The carrier reports 13 CDL-holding drivers on file. Each CDL driver must have a current Driver Qualification File (DQF) maintained per 49 CFR 391.51, including a Medical Examiner's Certificate, an annual MVR review, and a record of road-test results.
How BAKER CONSULTING LLC Compares to the National Average
Across the 18 recorded inspections, BAKER CONSULTING LLC's 16.7% vehicle out-of-service rate sits slightly below the FMCSA 2024 national average of 20.72%. The 11.1% driver out-of-service rate sits substantially above the 2024 national average of 5.51%.
