What Current Consulting Group does

Current Consulting Group (CCG) is a privately held, Florida-based management consulting firm founded in 1998 by Bill Current (originally as WFC & Associates) that serves the U.S. workplace drug testing industry through a dual mission: helping employers comply with state and federal drug testing regulations, and helping drug testing and background screening service providers grow revenue and promote their brands. CCG is recognized in peer surveys as the #1 brand name in compliance and business development consulting for the drug testing industry, and operates with a team of approximately 17 named subject matter experts including attorneys (members of the Florida Bar and former Johnson & Johnson associate counsel), former diagnostics industry executives from OraSure, Roche Diagnostics, Quest Diagnostics, Concentra, and Chevron, plus marketing and editorial specialists.

CCG's core technology asset is the proprietary CurrentCompliance online subscription database covering all 50 states' drug testing laws, marijuana/cannabis laws, and workers' compensation regulations, monitored daily by in-house staff and refreshed at least weekly. Complementary product lines include CurrentOn Training — an online learning platform (built on LearnUpon) offering supervisor reasonable suspicion, employee education, and DOT Designated Employer Representative (DER) training with CEU management — and Policy & Review Services for customized multi-state and DOT drug testing policies. The firm also offers Marketing Services for provider brand promotion, general Consulting Services billed via monthly retainer or project, and a CCG Partners reseller channel program. Supporting content assets include the annual Current Survey (27+ years of industry trend data), the weekly "Currently Speaking" podcast (launched 2024), and the free "Current in 30" monthly webinar series (hundreds of events annually, tens of thousands of attendees).

CCG's business model combines recurring subscription revenue (CurrentCompliance database, CurrentOn training) with project- and retainer-based professional services revenue (policy development, consulting, marketing services) and channel/reseller fees (CCG Partners). Go-to-market is sales-led and content-driven: Bill Current personally conducts nearly 50 in-person and virtual presentations per year, supported by an integrated content engine spanning a blog, podcast (distributed on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Amazon Music), free email newsletter (via Constant Contact), webinars (via GoTo Webinar), and active participation in industry associations including NDASA, SAPAA, and DATIA. CCG serves three customer segments — drug and alcohol testing service providers (primary), employers across industries (primary), and insurance carriers/captives (emerging) — and is currently operating under a refreshed 2025-2026 brand identity.
