While lab-based testing tends to be the “gold standard” for testing programs, EDPM recognizes that some business models simply don’t allow you to wait around for results. In these circumstances, EDPM can offer your company the ability to purchase easy-to-use point-of-collection testing products (“instant” tests), coordinate on-site collections if necessary, or train your personnel to perform collections. Since some states and federal agencies have restrictions on the use of such tests, EDPM can advise you on when the use of such testing may be appropriate. Even with point-of-collection testing, EDPM will ensure that you minimize your legal risks – by ensuring all products are FDA-approved, developing confirmation testing procedures, and maintaining custody-and-control forms for all testing.

While most employers do pre-employment testing for new hires, many organizations are learning about the “deterrence” value of an on-going random testing program. Statistics indicate that random testing programs can serve as an effective deterrent to substance abuse problems in the workplace. EDPM manages more than 800 random testing programs, regulated and non-regulated, for small entities and large, multinational firms. Our random testing program utilizes a scientifically established and legally defensible generation system. We can customize a random testing solution that captures the deterrence effect while being aligned with your organization’s culture and objectives.

You may already have a testing program in place, but may be unsatisfied with the turnaround time of your results. Maybe you’re worried about the quality of the collection facility that you use. Perhaps your current provider is not particularly responsive when it comes to “special” requests like setting up a drug screen in a new location for tomorrow – or preparing a statistical report on your testing program to present to upper management. Or maybe you’re thinking that you pay too much for your testing services. Many of EDPM’s 2800 nationwide clients began their partnership with us after having some of these same thoughts. Over the last 18 years, above all else, we have been successful by listening to our clients and prospective clients and then developing a solution based on what they need, not on what we sell.
