The Software to Start and Grow Your Testing Business

TATSoftApps is designed for organizations that manage drug and alcohol testing programs for other companies.

It is an ideal solution for:

  • New drug and alcohol testing businesses

  • Third-party administrators

  • Consortium managers

  • Occupational health providers

  • Medical clinics

  • Collection facilities

  • MRO offices

  • Independent testing professionals

You can begin with one client and continue using the same software as your company grows to manage dozens or hundreds of employers.

There is no need to replace the software simply because your business becomes successful.

Start with Professional Capabilities from Day One

A new business must earn the confidence of every prospective client. Employers need to know that their testing records will be organized and that you can provide timely, professional documentation.

TATSoftApps helps your new business provide services that established testing companies offer, including:

You do not need to combine multiple programs, spreadsheets, and manually prepared reports. TATSoftApps brings your essential testing-management functions together in one application.

Manage Unlimited Client Companies

Your business should be free to grow without increasing its software bill.

TATSoftApps allows you to manage an unlimited number of client companies. You can start with your first employer and continue adding clients without paying an additional software fee for each one.

For every client company, you can maintain:

  • Company contact information

  • Employee records

  • Testing histories

  • Random-testing eligibility

  • Pending test results

  • MRO and laboratory information

  • Company-specific reports

  • DOT MIS information

  • Clearinghouse-related records

  • Important notes

Because each company’s information is clearly identified, you can quickly locate records and provide clients with the documentation they request.

Manage Unlimited Employees

Subscription software may charge according to the number of employees stored in the system. That means your expense can increase every time you sign a larger client or add more employees.

TATSoftApps does not charge per employee.

You can manage an unlimited number of employees without increasing your software cost. Whether a client has 10 employees or 1,000, your price remains the same.

This allows your business to pursue larger accounts without worrying about how much additional software expense each client will create.

Create Unlimited Consortiums

Consortium management can become an important and profitable service for a new drug and alcohol testing business.

TATSoftApps allows you to:

  • Create an unlimited number of consortiums

  • Add an unlimited number of companies to each consortium

  • Organize employees into the correct testing pools

  • Perform random selections across a consortium

  • Generate consortium reports

  • Review consortium data metrics

  • Calculate DOT MIS information

  • Maintain separate records for participating companies

You can offer consortium services without purchasing an additional software module or paying a separate fee for every consortium you create.

Perform Random Selections for Your Clients

Random-selection management can become a valuable recurring service for your new business.

TATSoftApps includes a complete Random Selection Module that allows you to perform selections for:

  • An individual company

  • Multiple companies

  • An entire consortium

  • Drug testing

  • Alcohol testing

  • Drug and alcohol testing

  • Alternate candidates

Selections may be based on a specific number of employees or a percentage of the eligible testing pool.

The software prevents duplicate selections and uses a scientifically sound random-selection process to produce unbiased, defensible results.

You can provide this service yourself instead of purchasing additional random-selection software or paying another company to perform selections for your clients.

Give Clients Detailed Random-Selection Reports

Every random selection generates a professional report documenting:

  • Date the selection was performed

  • Software used to perform the selection

  • Name of your business

  • Number and names of companies included

  • Original size of the testing pool

  • Total number of employees selected

  • Drug, alcohol, and drug-and-alcohol selections

  • Alternate candidates

  • Employee ID, name, company, and selection type

These reports demonstrate that your business uses a documented and defensible random-selection process.

 

Generate Employee Notification Letters

TATSoftApps can automatically create a notification letter for every employee selected for testing.

Each letter identifies the employee, client company, selection type, selection date, and organization performing the selection. Signature lines can also be included.

This saves your staff from preparing letters manually and gives every client a consistent, professional notification process.

Track Pending Test Results

After an employee is selected, your responsibility does not necessarily end. You may need to monitor the test until the final result is received.

The Pending Results Window and the Pending Results Report provides a centralized list showing:

  • Employee ID

  • Employee name

  • Client company

  • Selection date

This helps prevent incomplete tests from being overlooked and makes it easier to follow up with clients, employees, laboratories, and collection facilities.

Maintain Complete Testing Histories

TATSoftApps allows your business to record and organize:

  • Drug tests

  • Alcohol tests

  • Drug-and-alcohol tests

  • Testing dates

  • Testing reasons

  • Test results

  • MRO and laboratory information

  • Employee and company information

Testing reasons can include pre-employment, random, post-accident, reasonable suspicion, return-to-duty, follow-up, and other testing events.

Complete testing histories allow you to answer client questions and generate detailed reports without searching through separate files.

Simplify DOT MIS Data Collection

The annual DOT MIS Data Collection Form can be intimidating for a new testing business—especially when information must be gathered for multiple employers or consortiums.

TATSoftApps automatically organizes stored testing data and calculates the numbers needed for the DOT MIS Data Collection Form on the DOT MIS Data Collection Form Window. Drug results and alcohol results are generated. 

Information can be reviewed for:

  • An individual client company

  • An entire consortium

  • A selected reporting period

This reduces manual counting, saves time, and helps improve the accuracy of the information you provide to your clients.

DOT MIS assistance can also become another valuable service your business offers.

Support FMCSA Clearinghouse Responsibilities

When a non-negative result is entered for an FMCSA-regulated employee, TATSoftApps provides a reminder that the result may need to be reported to the FMCSA Commercial Driver’s License Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse.

The software can also generate a detailed Clearinghouse Report from the Clearinhouse Window containing relevant employee, company, DOT number, MRO or laboratory, testing-date, and test-result information.

This feature is especially valuable if your new business will provide C/TPA or MRO-related services to motor carriers.

Provide More Than 25 Professional Reports and Graphs

Professional reporting helps a new business establish credibility.

TATSoftApps includes more than 25 reports and graphs, including:

  • Company test-result reports

  • Employee test-result reports

  • Date-range testing reports

  • Random-selection reports

  • Employee notification letters

  • Pending-results information

  • DOT MIS Data Collection information

  • Clearinghouse-related reports

  • Company roster reports

  • Consortium reports

  • Random-testing participation letters

  • Employee and company directory reports

  • Testing totals and bar-chart graphs

Reports can be generated for specific employees, companies, consortiums, and date ranges.

Instead of manually building documents for each client, you can quickly generate organized, professional reports directly from the software.

Provide Proof of Random-Testing Participation

Clients may need documentation showing that they participate in a DOT random-testing program.

TATSoftApps can generate Random Participation Letters identifying the employer and documenting its participation. Employee rosters and signature lines can also be included when needed.

This allows your new business to provide another important client service without preparing each letter from scratch.

Import Employee Rosters from CSV Files

Setting up a new client does not require you to enter every employee manually.

Employee rosters can be imported from properly formatted CSV files. The software reviews the information before completing the import and identifies records containing errors.

This makes onboarding new clients faster and helps prevent incorrect information from being added to your database.

Employees can also be entered individually whenever necessary.

Keep Company and Employee Contacts Organized

The built-in Company and Employee Directories allow you to store:

  • Telephone numbers

  • Email addresses

  • Mailing addresses

  • Company associations

  • Contact information

  • Important notes

Quick Search™ helps you locate an employee or company without scrolling through lengthy lists. Email addresses can also be copied to the Windows clipboard for convenient use in your email program.

View Important Business Data at a Glance

The Company Data Metrics and Consortium Data Metrics windows provide an immediate overview of testing activity.

You can quickly review important totals for an individual client or consortium without manually counting records.

These metrics help you:

  • Respond quickly to client questions

  • Monitor testing activity

  • Verify program totals

  • Identify trends

  • Prepare for reporting requests

  • Manage multiple client programs efficiently

Access Laboratories and Other Systems Quickly

The External Connections feature allows you to create links to frequently used websites and open the up from within the drug and alcohol testing managment software, including:

  • Laboratories

  • Collection facilities

  • FMCSA resources

  • Internal systems

  • Client portals

  • Other business websites

You can assign a name and web address to each connection and open it directly from the software.

Protect Your Client Information

The built-in Security Manager allows you to control access to the application.

Security capabilities include:

  • Secure software logon

  • Individual usernames and passwords

  • User creation and deletion

  • Password requirements

  • Username and password changes

  • Key-phrase assistance for account recovery

As your company grows and adds staff, you can create accounts for authorized users and remove access when necessary.

Keep Your Startup Costs Under Control

New businesses must carefully manage expenses. Every unnecessary monthly payment reduces the amount available for marketing, equipment, insurance, staffing, and business growth.

Subscription-based drug-testing software can cost $3,600 or more every year. Those charges continue whether you have one client or one hundred.

TATSoftApps costs $2,150 - one time.

See our Cost Benefit Analysis Page to compare our costs and our competitors costs.

Subscription prices vary by provider, plan, users, employees, and services. However, recurring charges continue for as long as you need access.

With TATSoftApps, your software is paid for once.

Keep More Revenue from Every Client

Imagine charging clients for random-selection management, consortium participation, DOT MIS assistance, testing-record management, and professional reports—without sending a large portion of that revenue to a software subscription provider every month.

Once you purchase TATSoftApps, adding clients does not create additional software charges.

That means:

  • Your first client does not trigger a monthly software bill

  • Larger clients do not cost more to manage

  • Adding employees does not increase your software expense

  • Creating consortiums does not create additional charges

  • Business growth does not produce a larger subscription payment

  • More of your revenue remains with your company

This is not only software for managing your clients. It is an investment in the long-term profitability of your new business.

TATSoftApps provides:

  • One affordable, one-time purchase

  • No monthly subscription
