WEST CHESTER, PA, May 16, 2011 -  A. Duie Pyle, a leading Northeast transportation and logistics provider, is pleased to announce the appointment of Dan Carrano, to the newly created position of director of CSA compliance. Dan is based at the company's headquarters in West Chester, PA.

"Dan's expertise in both safety and fleet management will provide additional strength to our organization," said Steve O'Kane, president of A. Duie Pyle.  "Employing a fleet maintenance leader to assist in Pyle's compliance with all the regulations of CSA was an appropriate investment and consistent with our commitment to safety."

In this capacity, Carrano will oversee the development and integration of safety processes and procedures into the fleet maintenance organization. Critically, he will evaluate and update programs that unify the expertise of fleet operations, mechanics and drivers to optimize the driver daily vehicle inspection process.

Dan will report to Pete Dannecker, director of safety and loss prevention for Pyle, who is nationally recognized as an industry leader in transportation safety standards.  Dan's primary mission is to assure that every piece of equipment hitting the street is in perfect operating condition and therefore an asset under the measurement profile that comes with the new Compliance Safety Accountability (CSA) regulations, stated Dannecker.
