Our DOT Consortium Membership includes quarterly random selections, notifications by email & phone, testing site coordination, MIS reporting, and a Certificate of Compliance upon enrollment. Owner-operators DOT-regulated employers Certificate of Compliance.
Owner Operators- DOT requires all owner-operators to enroll in a consortium so they are included in a compliant random testing pool because they cannot randomly test themselves.
Small Employers-Some smaller companies may not have enough drivers or safety-sensitive employees to maintain their own statistically valid random pool. Therefore, by joining a consortium, they are combined with other companies to form a large pool that meets DOT testing requirements.
Large Employers-Larger fleets may manage their own random pool but often use a consortium/TPA to outsource the process, reduce administrative burden, and ensure strict compliance.

Testing & Results: Visit the assigned testing center. ADT will manage CCFs, lab processing, and reporting.

What is a DOT Consortium (C/TPA) and who needs it?
A consortium C/TPA acts as a service agent managing part or all of an employer's drug and alcohol testing programs, including overseeing random testing pools and other compliance tasks under 49 CFR part 40.
Are random testing percentages always the same or do they change?
DOT random testing rates may fluctuate annually based on the positivity rate; however, in our consortium, regardless of the random testing rate, all DOT random testing fees are accommodated.
What happens when I am selected for a random test?
ADT will notify the company's DER or Owner Operator via email or phone with the nearest testing location and instructions. The selected individual must proceed to the testing center immediately upon notification.
What drugs are tested on a DOT drug test?
A DOT drug test includes a DOT 5 panel urine test and a DOT breath alcohol test. It's important to ensure tests are conducted using a Federal CCF and Federal Alcohol Testing Form.
Can you help during a DOT audit or inspection?
Yes, ADT can provide the required documentation and resources such as pre-employment test records, proof of random pool enrollment, supervisor training certificates, DOT policy development, and MIS reports.
How often can I update my employee pool?
We update employee rosters quarterly. Employers can add or remove covered employees anytime before selection dates.

Dealing with allegation’s of drug use that completely false is stressful, ADT was able to get me the best tests, going back the farthest in the same day with as little hassle as possible, I spoke with 1 person and wasn’t transferred once, and they took my payment, and got me my work order for a clinic as close as possible for the service I needed. 5*
