DOT Compliance & Audit Support
Preparation, representation, and follow-through for DOT audits and compliance reviews, so a federal review is something you are ready for, not afraid of.
Most carriers do not fail a DOT audit because they are unsafe. They fail because a file was missing, a date slipped, or nobody could find the paperwork when the auditor asked. We fix that before the auditor ever shows up.
We start by pulling the same records a federal auditor pulls under 49 CFR Parts 390 through 396: driver files, drug and alcohol testing records, hours of service, vehicle maintenance, and your accident register. We find the gaps first, document what is missing, and put a plan in place to close each one.
For new carriers, that means getting ready for the new entrant safety audit that FMCSA runs in your first year. For established fleets, it means being ready for a compliance review, a complaint investigation, or a roadside pattern that triggers a closer look.
If a review has already gone against you, we build the corrective action plan and handle the follow-up to protect your safety rating and your authority.
You walk away ready, and with a record system you can keep running after we leave, so the next audit is a non event.
