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.

What constitutes a DOT Consortium (C/TPA) and who requires it?

Are random testing percentages consistent or subject to modification?
Answer: The DOT's random testing rates may shift annually based on positivity rates. However, in our consortium, regardless of the variation in testing rates, all DOT random testing fees are covered.
What is the procedure upon selection for a random test?
Answer: Upon notification, ADT informs the company DER or Owner Operator via email/phone about the nearest testing center and detailed instructions. The chosen employee must immediately head to the testing facility.
