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?
A consortium C/TPA is a specialized service agent that oversees all or part of an employer's drug and alcohol testing program, managing random testing pools and ensuring compliance with 49 CFR part 40.
Are random testing percentages always the same or do they change?
The percentages for DOT random testing can vary each year depending on the positivity rate; however, in our consortium, regardless of the testing rate, all DOT random testing fees are included.
What happens when I am selected for a random test?
ADT contacts the company's Designated Employer Representative (DER) or Owner Operator via email or phone, providing the nearest testing location and instructions. The selected employee must immediately report to the testing center upon notification.
What drugs are tested on a DOT drug test?
A DOT drug test involves a DOT 5-panel urine screening and a DOT breath alcohol test. Ensure all tests are conducted using a Federal CCF and Federal Alcohol Testing forms.
Can you help during a DOT audit or inspection?
Yes, ADT assists by organizing necessary documentation such as pre-employment tests, proof of random pool enrollment, supervisor training certificates, DOT policy development, and MIS reports.
How often can I update my employee pool?
Employee roster updates are confirmed each quarter. Employers can add or remove covered employees at any time before selection dates.
