FMCSA / DOT Audit Management

In the majority of FMCSA / DOT compliance reviews, there are numerous violations cited by FMCSA that could have been eliminated through a better understanding of evaluation criteria. As former FMCSA investigators, the staff of NTCI can review your FMCSA (DOT) audit prior to a rating being issued to ensure that only valid violations are recorded. Our staff is available to manage your FMCSA (DOT) audit and interface with the FMCSA investigators during the auditing process.

Safety / Compliance Program Outsourcing

When you outsource your safety and compliance program with NTCI, we become not just your consultant but also your partner in safety and compliance, providing you with a professional safety and compliance program that reduces your safety and regulatory exposure.  Call us today for references. 

FMCSA / DOT Mock Compliance Audits

The FMCSA has been moving towards a more performance-based enforcement of the regulations under the new CSA program and can expose your company to different interventions from FMCSA. Your company can be selected for a compliance review or other interventions based on many different criteria under the new CSA program, but a proactive compliance program can eliminate the uncertanity during a FMCSA (DOT) audit. NTCI has former FMCSA investigators on staff to perform a "mock DOT audit" of your company, which will help you identify problem areas before FMCSA discovers them.

Driver File Management

NTCI provides outsourcing services to manage and maintain your driver qualification files. Our service ensures your files meet the applicable DOT regulations. We also provide you with continuous updates pertaining to expiration dates, renewal dates, training requirements and regulatory updates.

Alcohol/Drug Testing Programs & Training

The FMCSA places a great deal of emphasis on your alcohol and drug testing programs. Working in conjunction with several reputable drug testing companies, NTCI can establish, monitor and manage this program for your company. Allowing NTCI to manage your drug testing program will ensure that you remain in compliance with the regulatory requirements.

FMCSA (DOT) Fine/Penalty Negotiation/Rating Upgrades

NTCI can provide you with the necessary guidance and resources if you have received an enforcement action, civil forfeiture, or less than Satisfactory Rating notice from FMCSA. Most carriers do not understand the impact an enforcement case can have on a company and will either pay the fine or enter into a consent agreement. We have the experience and expertise to help you in these matters and to minimize the effect on your company.
