The Problem

FMCSA compliance is a full-time job. You don't have a full-time safety director.

One missed Clearinghouse query, an expired medical certificate, or a skipped random selection can end your operating authority — or cost you $10,000+ per violation. Most small carriers discover the problem during a DOT audit, when it's already too late.

⚠️

New entrant audits

If you're in your first 12 months of operation, FMCSA will audit you. Failing the Safety Audit gets your authority revoked. We handle it start-to-finish.

💊

Drug & alcohol program

Every CDL driver requires a compliant program under 49 CFR Part 382. Miss a single random draw and you're out of compliance — we manage the whole pool.

📁

Driver qualification files

49 CFR 391 requires 12+ specific documents per driver, updated annually. Missing paperwork is the #1 finding in DOT audits. We keep every file audit-proof.

🪪

MVR & CDL monitoring

Annual MVR reviews are the minimum. A driver's license can be suspended tomorrow — and you won't know until your next roadside inspection unless you're monitoring.

⏱️

HOS & ELD violations

Your ELD flags violations in real time. Someone needs to review, coach, and document — or FMCSA sees a pattern and your CSA scores spike.

🔍

DOT investigations

Roadside inspections, compliance reviews, rapid audits — any of them can hit without warning. We stand in front of the investigator so you can keep running your business.

From the Road

What carriers say about X3.

We were 3 weeks from our new entrant audit with a half-empty DQ binder. X3 rebuilt our files, ran Clearinghouse queries, and walked us through the audit. We passed clean.

I used to spend two Saturdays a month on compliance paperwork. Now I spend zero. The random draws, MVR alerts, and log audits all happen without me touching them.

Had a surprise compliance review last quarter. The investigator called X3, not me. They handled the document request and I got a clean letter two weeks later.
