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 is a DOT Consortium (C/TPA) and who needs it?

Are random testing percentages always the same or do they change?
Answer: The DOT's random testing rate can vary annually, influenced by the positivity rate. Regardless of these changes, our consortium includes all random testing fees for DOT.
What happens when I am selected for a random test?
Answer: ADT will reach out to notify the Designated Employer Representative (DER) or owner-operator via email or phone, providing details about the closest test site and necessary instructions. The selected employee is required to head to the testing site right after notification.

Answer: The DOT drug test involves a DOT 5-panel urine test along with a DOT breath alcohol test. It is crucial to utilize a Federal CCF for these tests.
Can you help during a DOT audit or inspection?
Answer: Yes, ADT can assist by organizing essential records such as pre-employment tests, documentation of enrollment in a random pool, supervisor training certificates, developing DOT policies, and MIS reports.
How often can I update my employee pool?
