Controlled Substances and Alcohol Use Testing

The Florida Department of Transportation's Human Resources Office is soliciting vendor information for controlled substances and alcohol use testing services under a single-source procurement notice, with vendor information due July 27, 2026. NMS Management Services, Inc. is the identified known vendor; FDOT will post notice of its intended single-source award decision on the Vendor Information Portal after reviewing any competing vendor submissions under Florida Statutes s. 120.57(3).

The scope covers Third Party Administrator services for drug and alcohol screening of FDOT employees holding commercial driver licenses and those in state-designated mandatory testing positions, in compliance with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration regulations and Florida's Drug-Free Workplace statute. Required capabilities include a dedicated point of contact with response times under one hour, a proprietary Screening & Compliance Portal managing digital Chain of Custody forms, operation of DOT-certified collection sites, record retention and destruction per federal and state requirements, dispute resolution between donors and collection sites, Substance Abuse Professional coordination, and limited queries of the FMCSA's Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse for all CDL-holding employees.

The estimated contract value is $45,000 for a one-year term covering fiscal year 2026–2027. FDOT's justification for single-source acquisition cites NMS Management Services' sole capability to maintain continuity of complete drug screening services without interruption and its established infrastructure for the specialized services required. Questions should be directed to Jocelyn Moore, FDOT Procurement Office, 850.414.4482 or CO.Purch@dot.state.fl.us.
