CHAMP, the nation's leading provider of electronic and digital solutions to motor vehicle agencies, is providing the electronic titling technology supporting South Carolina’s Digital Government Services initiative with Tyler Technologies, enabling electronic vehicle titles for dealer reassignment transactions and helping transform how vehicle ownership records are managed and transferred between licensed dealerships.

Following recent legislative action establishing a pathway toward an electronic titling system, South Carolina is investing in a modern approach to vehicle ownership designed to improve service delivery and better meet the needs of dealers, state administrators, and industry stakeholders.

The program will leverage CHAMP's Electronic Titling capabilities to support paperless dealer reassignment title transactions and electronic titles (e-titles) in replacement of traditional paper titles when desired. While often referred to as Digital Titles, this version of E-titles will allow for enhanced functionality and convenience, while also improving security. This groundbreaking innovation will help streamline title processing, and support more efficient operations across the state.

By replacing paper titles with secure electronic records for dealer reassignments, South Carolina is taking a significant step toward a more modern title administration process. The state's new e-titles (digital titles) create a single, authoritative ownership record maintained by the state, reducing reliance on physical documents while preserving the ability to issue paper titles when needed. In most other states, what is known as an electronic title conducts the process of titling a vehicle online but always results in a traditional paper title that is mailed to the owner, a time-consuming process that is vulnerable to misfiling, damage, and other mishaps. The approach in South Carolina strengthens security, reduces opportunities for fraud, and streamlines how ownership information is managed and exchanged during dealer-to-dealer title transfers. As the second state in the nation to adopt CHAMP’s digital titles, referred to as electronic titles in this deployment, South Carolina is helping shape the future of vehicle ownership and title administration.

"Vehicle ownership shouldn't depend on paper moving from desk to desk," said Shane Bigelow, CEO of CHAMP. "South Carolina recognizes that modern vehicle services require modern infrastructure. By issuing electronic titles for dealer reassignment transactions, the South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles is creating a stronger foundation for how ownership and vehicle services will operate in the years ahead."

South Carolina joins a growing number of states transforming their motor vehicle agencies through digital infrastructure. CHAMP's technology supports driver and vehicle services for over 46 million Americans across West Virginia, New Jersey, Kentucky, Illinois, Rhode Island, Louisiana, Kansas, and Connecticut, helping government operations and improving the experience of citizens and industry stakeholders.
