Who it serves
Overview
Foley is a Hartford, Connecticut company that combines compliance software with services for employers of DOT-regulated drivers. Its homepage calls it a partner for DOT compliance, and its platform covers hiring, onboarding and ongoing monitoring of drivers, with drug and alcohol testing, driver qualification files, background checks and audit support at the center.
The company says it found its roots in DOT compliance and has since grown to serve other high-risk industries. Its consortium page says it has run FMCSA-compliant drug and alcohol consortiums since 1992, and a 2017 press release described Foley as having served the transportation industry for more than two decades.

Services
Foley organizes its offer around the driver lifecycle. For hiring, it provides job postings, recruiter tools, configurable applications and an apply-by-license option. For onboarding, it runs background screening, drug and alcohol testing, FMCSA Clearinghouse queries and driver qualification file setup. For ongoing compliance, it offers MVR and Clearinghouse monitoring, drug and alcohol program monitoring, DQ file tracking and CSA and audit risk alerts.
Its DOT drug testing consortium page lists random pool administration with computer-generated selections, quarterly or monthly random draws, collection scheduling through a network of more than 10,000 SAMHSA-certified collection sites, medical review officer (MRO) review, Clearinghouse reporting, MIS recordkeeping kept for five years and audit-ready records. Foley describes itself as an FMCSA-registered consortium/third party administrator (C/TPA).
Other services include DOT physical management, DOT background checks, pre-employment and post-employment screening, criminal and social media checks, and integrations with applicant tracking systems. The platform includes an AI guide called Foley Navigator that explains alerts and regulatory requirements in plain language.
Who it is for
Foley serves owner-operators and small fleets through its entry plan as well as larger fleets that want deeper monitoring and HR system integrations. Its pricing page says companies with 20 or more employees are paired with a customer success manager. Because the company also serves non-transportation employers, it can suit businesses that manage both DOT and non-DOT drug-free workplace programs. The homepage says Foley is trusted by more than 50,000 companies.
How working with them works
Foley sells three plans. Essential, aimed at small fleets and owner-operators, includes DQ files, a DOT drug and alcohol program, pre-employment and annual Clearinghouse queries, out-of-compliance alerts, an audit risk monitor and a standard screening package. Professional adds driver CSA monitoring, MVR and PSP scoring, ongoing MVR monitoring, custom pre-hire workflows, non-DOT program support and audit support services. Power adds customizable digital applications, a document review service and HR system integrations.
Dollar prices for the plans are not published on the pricing page; buyers request a quote or demo. The consortium page gives general industry cost ranges for enrollment and per-test collection and MRO fees, but not a Foley price list. Foley says enrollment in its random pool takes one to two business days.
Questions to ask before you sign
What will Foley do in the FMCSA Clearinghouse, and what must you do yourself? You will generally need to register as an employer in the Clearinghouse and designate Foley as your C/TPA under your own account. Confirm who buys query credits and who runs the annual limited query.
Who files your other FMCSA paperwork? Foley's focus is drivers and testing. Ask whether it handles any registration filings, such as the MCS-150 biennial update or UCR, or whether you must file those yourself on FMCSA's and the UCR Plan's own sites. Foley's site states it is not affiliated with the Unified Carrier Registration Plan, and it is a private company, not a government agency.
What is the full cost? Ask for the plan price, the per-test collection and MRO fees, background check and MVR fees, and any add-ons such as PSP, CDLIS or criminal checks.
What happens in an audit? Professional and Power include audit support services. Ask what that covers in a compliance review or new entrant audit and how fast records can be produced.
Foley's own consortium guidance notes that FMCSA holds the carrier responsible for random testing rates even when a C/TPA errs. Ask how Foley reports your testing rate and what it does if a selection is missed. If you switch providers, how are five years of records transferred?
