Why is a DOT Consortium Required?

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.

How Our DOT Consortium Works

Step 1: Enroll: Select a 1, 2, or 3 year membership and receive your Certificate of Compliance by email.

Quarterly Selections: We process our consortiums using a scientifically valid, computer-generated random draws each quarter.

Immediate Notifications: If selected, your DER receives email & phone notice with selection instructions.

Testing & Results: Visit the assigned testing center. ADT will manage CCFs, lab processing, and reporting.

MIS Reporting: Year-end and on-demand MIS reports included.

Included With Membership

  • DER support & audit-ready documentation
  • Federal CCFs (5-part) for DOT drug tests

    Tom O - 12/19/2024

    Smooth and Seamless

    I use their service for new hire and DOT employee's. Spoke with Taisha Walker this morning, and she was very helpful. She made the process smooth and seamless.

    Christina Galdos - 3/9/2025

    Friendly and Knowledgeable

    I reached out Accredited Drug Testing/Secure Screenings to partner for my drug testing business (Discovery Diagnostics Columbia SC) and the process was extremely easy. I worked with Sicilia who was amazing. She was friendly & knowledgeable, and answer all of my questions with ease.

    Kendra Harley - 3/26/2025

    Fantastic Experience

    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!

    Riley Wilson - 2/18/2025

    Thank You!!

    I needed a quick drug test for visitation with my children. I called at 6am they answered and set me up with a place a couple miles from my house to go get the test done, that was on Wednesday, I had the results on Friday afternoon and was able to see my kids on Saturday. Thank you for the help!

    Mark Broadhead - 2/12/2025

    Hassle Free Experience

    It was easy to make the arrangements to get to someone in regards to renewing my DOT medical certificate. They took care of everything over the phone which made my experience hassle free. I will definitely be using them again and you should too.

    Jim Raymond - 10/18/2024

    Polite

    I ran into a situation because the Guthrie had closed and I had to go to well care and they were right on it. I had no problems when I called to get connected with welcare everything worked out and I didn't even have to wait.they were polite and talked with the receptionist for me once I got them on the phone.

    Exodus Heath - 2/13/2025

    This is by far the easiest

    This is by far the easiest way to get my lab work ordered and paid for. The phone calls are short and to the point. They don’t try to push extra sales on you and when I walk in to the clinic I simply show my donor pass and with in a matter of minutes I’m done. I will continue to use ADT in the future.
