Carrier Compliance

Compliance Consultation

Expert DOT compliance consulting for carriers facing specific challenges—audit preparation, violation remediation, policy development, program assessments, and regulatory guidance from experienced compliance professionals.

Sometimes you need expert guidance on a specific compliance challenge rather than ongoing management services. Whether you're preparing for a compliance review, responding to violations, developing new policies, assessing your current program, or navigating complex regulatory questions, DSC's compliance consultants provide the expertise you need.

Our consulting engagements are tailored to your specific situation. We work with carriers of all sizes—from owner-operators facing their first audit to large fleets implementing new compliance systems. Our consultants bring years of experience in DOT compliance, having worked with hundreds of carriers across the transportation industry. We understand the regulations, know how auditors evaluate programs, and can identify gaps before they become violations. Whether you need a few hours of guidance or an in-depth program assessment, DSC delivers practical, actionable expertise that addresses your compliance challenges directly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Consultation is valuable when you have specific compliance questions, are preparing for or responding to an audit, need policy development or review, want an independent assessment of your current program, or face complex situations requiring expert guidance. It's ideal when you need expertise for a defined scope rather than ongoing management.

We begin by understanding your specific situation and objectives. Depending on your needs, we may review documentation, assess current practices, research regulatory requirements, and provide recommendations. You receive actionable guidance, documented findings, and clear next steps. For complex matters, we may recommend follow-up engagement or transition to ongoing management services.

Consultation is billed hourly for the time our experts spend on your matter. We provide estimates for defined projects and can establish not-to-exceed budgets. For carriers who become ongoing clients, consultation time often applies toward service setup. Contact us to discuss your situation and receive a specific estimate.
