CHAMP Titles, Inc. ("CHAMP"), the nation’s leading provider of digital systems of record for motor vehicle agencies, today announced the successful launch of its Driver Services platform for the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles (OMV).

The launch marks a historic first for both Louisiana and CHAMP. For Louisiana, it begins a new era in driver credential management powered by a modern, cloud-native platform. For CHAMP, it is the first statewide deployment of the company’s Driver Services solution, extending its modernization platform into one of state government’s most visible citizen-facing services. The state’s Vehicle Services modernization, also through the CHAMP platform, remains on track for launch in 2027.

Through the new Driver Services platform, Louisiana has replaced decades-old technology with a modern system designed to support driver licenses, identification cards, credential management, and future digital government services. The implementation provides a flexible platform for continuous improvement while strengthening operational efficiency, security, and service delivery.

"This is a defining moment for CHAMP," said Shane Bigelow, Chief Executive Officer of CHAMP. "For years, we have helped states modernize vehicle services through digital titling, registration, and lien systems. Today, Louisiana becomes the first state to go live on our Driver Services platform. The state’s trust in our team made it possible to bring a new approach to driver credential management, creating a foundation for what's next."

The launch is the result of a close partnership between CHAMP, Governor Jeff Landry, his administration, the Louisiana OMV, the Louisiana Office of Technology Services (OTS), and stakeholders across the state. Together, the organizations worked to modernize critical infrastructure while minimizing disruption to residents and OMV operations.

“We promised Louisianans shorter lines and an easier experience at the OMV, and today we’re delivering on that promise. CHAMP gives folks a faster, simpler way to get the services they need, while cutting costs and inefficiencies that have plagued this system for over fifty years. This is what a modern, 21st century government should look like,” said Governor Landry.

The Driver Services launch also advances Louisiana's broader modernization roadmap. CHAMP and the state will continue work toward implementing the Vehicle Services platform in 2027, creating an integrated environment that supports both driver and vehicle transactions through a unified modern architecture.

"Large government technology projects have earned a reputation for taking years longer than expected," said Bo Shim, Chief Technology and Product Officer at CHAMP. "Louisiana challenged that expectation from day one. Together, we moved from contract signing to statewide launch in just over a year. Delivering on that timeline requires focus and trust across every organization involved, and it proves that modernization can happen much faster than many people think."
