Smith's TPA and Consortium Compliance Solutions
FMCSA compliant drug and alcohol testing programs for owner-operators and fleets — Smith's TPA and Consortium Compliance Solutions keeps you covered 24/7.
Your Consortium/Third-Party Administrator
A C/TPA (Consortium/Third-Party Administrator) manages all aspects of a DOT drug and alcohol testing program on behalf of employers. We handle the administrative burden so you can focus on running your business.
For owner-operators and small carriers who cannot maintain their own random testing pool, joining a consortium is not just convenient — it is federally required. FMCSA regulations mandate that all CDL drivers subject to DOT testing be enrolled in a random testing program.
As your C/TPA, we handle:
Is This Right for You?
Owner-Operators
If you drive under your own authority, you are required to be in a random testing consortium. We make enrollment fast and affordable.
Small Fleets (1–10 drivers)
Too small to run your own random pool? Join ours. We pool your drivers with others to meet FMCSA minimum requirements.
Larger Carriers
Outsource your entire testing program to us. We handle everything from pre-employment to follow-up testing.
New DOT Registrants
Just got your DOT number? You need a testing program in place before your first driver turns a wheel.
After-Hours Testing Available
Accidents and reasonable suspicion situations do not wait for business hours. We are available after hours for post-accident and reasonable suspicion testing — because DOT regulations require testing within strict time windows.
Post-Accident
DOT requires alcohol testing within 2 hours and drug testing within 32 hours of a qualifying accident.
Reasonable Suspicion
When a trained supervisor observes signs of impairment, testing must happen as soon as possible.
Random Selections
We notify drivers promptly and coordinate same-day collection when possible.
