7/30/2025

Holly Merz, AAMVA's National Motor Vehicle Title Information System (NMVTIS) Junk, Salvage & Insurance (JSI) Senior Program Analyst, spent the day with Traci Sharr, the Motor Vehicle County Liaison on the Vehicle Information Partners Team at the Iowa Department of Transportation. The visit offered Holly a valuable opportunity to learn firsthand how Traci uses NMVTIS and the JSI program in her daily work. Traci leads the JSI enhanced review process in coordination with all 99 county treasurer offices across Iowa. She also maintains access to key vehicle information platforms such as ARTS, NMVTIS, and CARFAX, and works closely with external organizations and other state agencies critical to the NMVTIS process. Holly shared, “I truly appreciated Traci’s time and insights. I learned a great deal about the practical application of NMVTIS and the JSI program at the state level, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to see the impact of Traci’s work with NMVTIS in action."
