Common Questions

Common questions from employers considering a C/TPA program. If your question is not here, call us directly at (425) 476-7197.

What exactly does a C/TPA do?

A Consortium/Third-Party Administrator manages your drug and alcohol testing program on your behalf. That includes setting up your policy, enrolling employees in a random pool, running random draws at the correct DOT rate, coordinating collections, managing FMCSA Clearinghouse queries, and ensuring your records are audit-ready. You hand us the program. We run it.

Do I need a C/TPA or can I manage my own program?

Employers subject to DOT regulations can manage their own program, but most do not have the time, staff, or regulatory expertise to do it correctly. A missed random draw, an incorrect Clearinghouse query, or a documentation gap can result in violations and fines. A C/TPA can reduce the administrative burden and help create a more consistent compliance process without requiring a dedicated internal program administrator.

How long does a collection take on-site?

Most collections are completed in 15 to 30 minutes on-site through our qualified collector network. As your C/TPA, we manage the paperwork, chain-of-custody documentation, and scheduling behind the scenes so your employee is back to work quickly.

How do I get the results?

As your C/TPA, Skyside coordinates result delivery to your designated employer representative (DER) through the MRO for DOT-regulated testing. We manage the full chain, from collection and lab routing through MRO review and reporting, so you have one contact for the entire process.

Are collections DOT compliant?

DOT collections are coordinated through qualified collection sites using applicable 49 CFR Part 40 procedures, including required chain-of-custody documentation and collection safeguards.

What happens if a specimen is rejected by the lab?

If a specimen is rejected, Skyside coordinates the appropriate next steps with the collection, laboratory, and MRO partners, including any recollection required under the applicable rules.

We already have a testing program. Can you take it over?

Yes. Skyside can review an existing program, identify administrative gaps, update agreed documentation or enrollment items, and transition program management based on the scope and condition of the current program.

What areas do you serve?

Skyside manages DOT drug and alcohol testing programs nationwide. Non-DOT program services are available in Washington and California, with additional states supported upon request following a state-specific compliance review. Testing appointments are coordinated through collection sites within our network.
