Thirty-five years in New Jersey, and clients who stay that long.

PSI, Prevention Specialists Inc., is a family-owned New Jersey company. We were founded in 1990, in the earliest years of federally mandated DOT testing, and we have administered employer drug and alcohol testing programs from Ocean Township, New Jersey ever since.

Year-over-year retention

Client retention

Ninety-nine percent of our business last year is still with us this year.

In an industry where many compete on the lowest fees, our retention happens exactly one way: the work keeps being done right. Most clients engage us on annual program relationships rather than one-off orders, and many of those relationships span decades and more than one generation of management.

What we do

A full-service C/TPA

PSI is a full-service Consortium/Third-Party Administrator: one firm that runs the whole program with you, DOT and non-DOT, from the written policy through the pools, the collections, MRO verification on DOT drug tests as Part 40 requires, training, emergency response, return-to-duty support, and the records that survive an audit.

Every testing type under one roof

Urine drug testing, evidential breath alcohol testing, non-DOT oral fluid testing, and student testing.

Collections where you need them

At our Ocean office, on site at your locations, and by retained emergency dispatch across all twenty-one New Jersey counties.

You stay the employer of record

You remain responsible to DOT for your program (49 CFR 40.11). Our job is to make that responsibility easy to carry.

Our collectors are our people

PSI employees, not subcontractors

Every collector who visits your site is a PSI employee, not a contractor or a subcontractor. The person who shows up is what makes a program work.

Qualified for urine and breath alcohol

Every one is trained and qualified as both a DOT urine collector and a Breath Alcohol Technician under 49 CFR 40.33 and 40.213, with the qualification documentation the rule lets you ask to see.

Bilingual in English and Spanish

Several of our collectors are bilingual, which matters on a construction site or a terminal floor.

Our equipment and our fleet

A dedicated collection fleet

Mobile collection vehicles equipped for field collections, so a site visit arrives ready to work.

DOT-approved breath testing

Our breath alcohol testing is done on evidential breath testing devices on the DOT-approved list (49 CFR 40.229).

Calibration records on every device

We keep calibration and quality-assurance records on every device as 40.233 requires, because in an audit the paper behind the instrument matters as much as the result in front of it.

Where we work

All twenty-one New Jersey counties

PSI is based in Ocean Township, New Jersey, and administers programs statewide.

Neighboring states

We also administer programs in New York, Pennsylvania, and Delaware.

Collections wherever a program needs them

Our office, on-site crews at your location statewide, and collections nationwide through established networks such as LabCorp and Quest Diagnostics.
