Partner with the DOT compliance department your clients’ fleets are missing
You already serve companies that run trucks. Some of them carry DOT work nobody on their staff was hired to do. PFM is the team that does it, every day, beside their people.
Many of your clients are motor carriers and don’t know it
Construction, landscape and utility companies run dump trucks, service trucks and pickups pulling equipment trailers. Many of those vehicles fall under the same DOT safety rules as a trucking company, because the rules follow the vehicle, not the industry.
The work behind those rules never stops. Driver files, hours, inspections, medical cards, licenses and drug and alcohol testing all need someone watching them every working day. When that work slips, it doesn’t stay inside the company. It shows up on a public safety record that anyone can look up with a USDOT number.
That record follows your client into every renewal and every bid, and it reflects on the people who serve them.
Who we partner with
Your customers already have the software. What many of them don’t have is a person whose job is to act on every alert. PFM’s team works every hours violation, speeding and hard-braking event and unassigned drive time, every day, and writes down what was done.
We work inside the tools your customer already pays for. Nothing gets replaced, and your system gets used the way it was meant to be.
The companies hiring your graduates, your members and your clients all run into the same questions about driver files, hours and testing. Send them to PFM, and they get a team that does the work with them.
We also speak at member meetings and events, in plain language, about what DOT expects from companies that run their own trucks.
Who’s a good fit
The team your client gets
Every PFM client gets a full DOT compliance department, working beside their own people every day.
Hiring these four roles in house costs about $465,000 a year with benefits.¹ PFM gives your client the same four roles for a fraction of that.
¹ Median yearly pay from BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, May 2025: Compliance Manager $107,230 (transportation, storage, and distribution managers), Hours of Service Specialist $80,730 (compliance officers), Safety Specialist $90,150 (occupational health and safety specialists), and Compliance Admin $47,540 (secretaries and administrative assistants). That is $325,650 in pay. Pay is about 70% of what an employer spends on each worker once benefits are added (BLS Employer Costs for Employee Compensation), which brings the total to about $465,000 a year.

Let’s talk
Pick a time for a 20-minute call with Ontaria about who you serve and what your clients run into.
Ontaria built and ran her own eight-truck fleet, a seven-figure business, and has spent 17 years in compliance and regulatory work. She started PFM to be the DOT department she wished she’d had. When you partner with PFM, you work with her directly.
Send us your client. We’ll take it from there.
Ontaria will reach out to your client within one business day, answer their questions about what PFM does, and set up their free DOT Compliance Assessment if it’s a fit. We’ll let you know once we’ve connected.
