Winners are chosen by an independent panel of industry experts, analysts, and journalists who evaluate nominees on innovation, performance, user experience, and overall market impact.
“We’re honored to receive this recognition from AutoTech Breakthrough,” said Shane Bigelow, CEO of CHAMP Titles. “At CHAMP, we believe digital transformation should serve both government and industry. The NDTC platform is proof that when technology partners with state agencies, we can bring efficiency, transparency, and trust to a system that impacts millions of transactions every year. This award underscores the real-world impact of our work and our commitment to driving measurable progress for the automotive retail industry.”
Each year, the AutoTech Breakthrough Awards draw thousands of global nominations from innovators such as Ford, Cox Automotive, Rivian, Samsung, and Siemens. NDTC’s selection affirms its growing role as a national leader in digital vehicle titling.
This recognition underscores NDTC’s leadership in bringing state-backed digital titling to the forefront of automotive modernization. By transforming a traditionally slow, paper-based process into a fully digital, secure, and efficient system, NDTC enables dealerships, lenders, fleets, and insurers to complete title transactions in minutes instead of weeks.
“The NDTC team is deeply committed to empowering our partners with technology that works for them,” said Bryan Calloway, Executive Vice President of NDTC. “This award reflects the collaboration between our technology team, our state partners, and the auto retailers we serve. Together, we’re setting the new standard for efficiency, accuracy, and customer experience in automotive titling.”

The platform allows users to securely transfer titles, reduce fraud, and streamline lien release workflows while maintaining compliance with state and federal regulations.
NDTC’s technology enables interoperability between public and private systems, ensuring scalability for states and ease of adoption for industry partners.
“What makes NDTC unique is that it’s not just a software solution—it’s a state-backed digital transformation model,” added Bigelow. “It’s a proof point that public-private collaboration can deliver scalable innovation, measurable efficiency, and meaningful change for millions of vehicle owners.”
This honor follows a year of rapid growth and adoption for NDTC as more automotive retailers, lenders, and state partners embrace state-backed digital titling. The award further validates CHAMP’s mission to help modernize title management nationwide through its technology platform.
