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.

I am forever grateful for this team of hard workers, that care, with such great work ethics! Thank you from the very bottom of my heart!!! If you need a drug, alcohol, etc… screening, this team will be your lifesavers!!

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*

I was so surprised with the quality of customer service I received today when I called Accredited Drug Testing. The representative was so clear and competent. She was able to reschedule an appointment at my preferred location. The representative whose name is Justice, was so polite and competent. She expedited the whole process. It was a relief to me.

Time was running out before my Cdl got downgraded because of a violation I had on clearinghouse. I couldn't find an employer to send me for my return to duty test, but these guys had my test scheduled and done in the same day! They saved my cdl. Thank you again!
