Here's a modernized, client-facing version that presents these compliance capabilities compellingly:


DTSMS — Enterprise-Grade Compliance, Built for the Complexity of Government and Large-Scale Operations

Today's regulatory environment demands more than basic random selection. County agencies, municipalities, and large multi-department organizations require a platform that is secure, auditable, flexible, and built to handle real-world operational complexity without compromise. DTSMS was engineered precisely for that challenge — and it fully complies across every critical requirement.

Complete Audit Transparency and Data Integrity

In an age where accountability is non-negotiable, DTSMS maintains a comprehensive transaction audit trail for every record in the system. Every data entry staff member who accesses or modifies a record is tracked automatically. Each record is time-stamped at creation and again at every subsequent modification, giving your organization an ironclad chain of custody for compliance documentation, legal proceedings, and internal oversight. You always know who touched what — and when.

Flexible Testing Beyond Random Selection

DTSMS understands that not every test is a random one. The system fully supports non-random testing scenarios — including follow-up, post-accident, reasonable suspicion, return-to-duty, and new employee testing — all managed separately from and without any impact on the integrity of your random selection pool. Each test type is clearly identified and categorized, ensuring your records are clean, defensible, and audit-ready at all times.

Random selection pools can be configured by shift or group (A, B, C, D), job function, safety-sensitive classification, or by specific government program requirements such as FTA or FMCSA — with completely separate pools maintained for each regulatory body. Employees can be selected for drug testing, alcohol testing, or both, depending on program requirements.

Role-Based Security and Multi-Agency Data Isolation

DTSMS supports multiple user roles — administrator, selector, and view-only — with granular security permissions assigned to each. Multiple staff members can operate within each role simultaneously. Critically, when multiple county agencies or groups operate within a single instance of the software, DTSMS enforces strict data isolation, ensuring that no agency can access — either through the application or via reporting — the data belonging to another. Your data stays yours.

The system integrates with industry-standard authentication practices including user ID and password protocols, Active Directory integration, and county single sign-on (SSO) environments, meeting today's enterprise IT security expectations straight out of the box.

Notification Tracking and Reporting

DTSMS tracks and retains all testing notifications from issuance through resolution. At minimum, the system generates reports identifying every employee required to report for testing, complete with test dates, enabling both automated and manual notification workflows. Your compliance paper trail is always complete and always accessible.

Comprehensive Test Management and Case Tracking

Managing the full lifecycle of a drug and alcohol testing program requires more than selection. DTSMS provides end-to-end tracking for test results, no-shows, cancellations, notes, and tests conducted on different sample agents. The system also supports tracking of incident settlement issues, referrals for treatment, and claims or court case data tied to specific tests. When a claim has been filed against a county, agency, or employee, DTSMS retains the associated event records indefinitely — ensuring your organization is never caught without documentation when it matters most.

The system also supports pre-planned leave exclusions, allowing employees on approved vacation or scheduled absence to be automatically excluded from a given selection pool, reducing administrative burden and protecting selection validity.

Privacy-First Employee Identification

DTSMS uses non-identifiable keys for employee identification — no Social Security Numbers, ever. The system is designed to integrate directly with your existing HR platform employee ID structure, including Advantage HR, making data imports clean, consistent, and privacy-compliant from day one.

Built to Scale — From a Single Agency to an Entire County

Whether you're managing a single department or consolidating multiple county agencies under one platform, DTSMS is architected to handle it. The system supports a large and scalable number of employee records and test transactions per agency or group — combined or separately — with no artificial ceiling on volume. As your organization grows or your program expands, DTSMS grows with you.

Full DOT Compliance — Always

Every data collection point, storage protocol, selection methodology, and report generated by DTSMS is designed to meet current DOT requirements in full. You don't have to interpret the regulations and hope your software keeps up — DTSMS is built around them.


DTSMS doesn't just check boxes. It gives your organization the infrastructure, the confidence, and the documentation to operate a best-in-class drug and alcohol testing program — no matter how complex your environment is.
