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.

Failing to comply with DOT drug and alcohol testing requirements can result in severe consequences for both employers and drivers, including:
What constitutes a DOT Consortium (C/TPA) and who requires it?
Answer: A C/TPA acts as a service agent responsible for managing some or all facets of an employer's drug and alcohol testing program, which includes managing random testing pools and ensuring conformity with 49 CFR part 40.
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.
Which substances are screened in a DOT drug test?
Answer: A DOT drug test evaluates a DOT 5-panel urine sample and a DOT breath alcohol test. Ensure all testing is carried out using a Federal CCF and Federal Alcohol Testing Form.
Can assistance be provided during a DOT audit or inspection?
Answer: Yes, ADT can help by organizing necessary documents such as pre-employment tests, proof of random pool enrollment, supervisor training certificates, DOT policy formulation, and MIS reports.
How frequently is it possible to update the employee pool?

Fantastic experience from the beginning. Jocelyn was very helpful to me as someone who doesn’t have much experience in needing a test. They were very helpful and walked me through the entire process start to finish. Thank you ADT!
