DOT & FMCSA Compliance
We guide you through the FMCSRs end to end — keeping your policies, procedures and records current and inspection-ready.
INTLTCS keeps U.S. and Mexico-domiciled carriers audit-ready under the FMCSRs and 49 CFR Parts 40 & 199 — founded by a former FMCSA & PHMSA program manager with 23+ years on both sides of the border.
Most consultants learn the regulations from the outside. INTLTCS was founded by a former FMCSA & PHMSA program manager who enforced the drug & alcohol rules (Parts 40 & 199) and the cross-border trucking rules from the inside. That perspective is the difference between hoping you pass and knowing you will.
“I spent years on the enforcement side of the table. Now I make sure that when an officer reviews your files, there is nothing left to find.”

Every Mexico-domiciled carrier moving freight into the U.S. needs a USDOT number (via the MCS-150), an FMCSA-assigned MX number, and the correct authority: a Certificate of Registration (OP-2) for commercial-zone operations, or OP-1(MX) for long-haul beyond the commercial zones. We guide you through each step and prepare you for the Pre-Authorization Safety Audit (PASA).
Yes. INTLTCS is fully bilingual. All consulting, training, audit preparation and documentation are available in English and Spanish, so carriers and drivers on both sides of the border understand exactly what is required.
Part 40 sets the DOT-wide procedures for drug and alcohol testing. Part 199 applies those rules to pipeline operations under PHMSA. We design and manage compliant programs under both — including supervisor training, return-to-duty coordination with Substance Abuse Professionals, and complete recordkeeping.
Preparation should begin well before any notice from FMCSA or a state agency. We run proactive mock audits to find and fix gaps in your driver qualification files, drug & alcohol program, hours-of-service and maintenance records — so you walk into an inspection already compliant.
