What Is a DOT Mock Audit?
"A mock DOT audit is a simulated assessment of your company's compliance with FMCSA/DOT regulations. Unlike a real DOT audit, which can be stressful and costly, a mock audit provides a low-pressure environment to identify and rectify compliance issues proactively. "
At RoadLink Recruiters, our team of seasoned transportation consultants will visit your terminal or location to conduct a comprehensive examination of all your records, data, processes, and documentation. The mock DOT-FMCSA compliance review audit closely mimics the real thing, covering all aspects of a genuine compliance review. Our experts meticulously evaluate more than 500 safety and compliance points, addressing critical areas such as Driver Qualification Files, Vehicle & Operational Requirements, Maintenance Records, Drugs and Alcohol Compliance, Accident Reports, Hazmat Compliance, and much more.
