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.

The DOT's random testing percentages can fluctuate annually, depending on the rates of positive results; however, within our consortium, regardless of the random testing rate, all DOT random testing charges are encompassed.
What transpires when I am chosen for a random test?
ADT will inform the company Designated Employer Representative (DER) or Owner Operator through email or phone, providing the nearest test location and essential instructions. The chosen employee must head straight to the testing center upon notification.

A DOT drug examination includes a DOT 5-panel urine test and a DOT breath alcohol evaluation. It is crucial that all tests be executed using a Federal CCF and Federal Alcohol Testing Form.
