DJM Consulting Group

What DJM Consulting Group does

DJM Consulting Group (legal entity David J Medeiros Consulting Group LLC) is a U.S. DOT/FMCSA compliance consulting firm headquartered in North Kingstown, Rhode Island. The firm delivers three interconnected service modules: Compliance Programs (FMCSA mock audits, CSA score monitoring, DataQ requests, document expiration tracking, roadside inspection reviews, accident and drug/alcohol monitoring, MCS-150 biannual filings, and DOT/insurance audit representation), New Fleet Solutions (USDOT and MC number acquisition, financial responsibility support, new entrant audit preparation, and annual compliance services with referrals to drug/alcohol, IFTA, IRP, LLC/EIN, insurance, and permit providers), and Professional Support (DOT audit representation, fine negotiations, safety rating upgrades, expert witness testimony, accident investigation and reconstruction, custom safety forms, and driver/staff training). Customers range from over-the-road transportation companies with large commercial fleets down to contractors operating a single DOT-regulated vehicle, as well as new business ventures launching commercial motor vehicle operations.

The firm is veteran-owned, founded and led by David J Medeiros, who brings more than 25 years of combined transportation enforcement and industry experience. It employs 13 people, has no disclosed funding, no parent company, and operates from a single Rhode Island office. Revenue is generated through professional services fees for consulting engagements, audit preparation and representation, training, and ongoing compliance management. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; a free initial consultation is offered to prospects, and engagements are billed on a pay-as-you-go basis. Distribution is direct-to-business via consultative sales engagements and ongoing service relationships, primarily within the United States.

The underlying technology stack is essentially human-delivered consulting rather than a software platform: there are no APIs, SDKs, mobile apps, or AI/ML components referenced. Competitive positioning rests on regulatory and talent moats — specialized FMCSA expertise, expert witness credentials across fleet operations, hazardous materials, vehicle inspection, driver training, and regulatory enforcement — rather than on technology scale.

Scale indicators1 record

Recent moves3 records

Expansion highlights2 records

Emerging players

• Motive (formerly KeepTruckin): AI-powered fleet management platform offering ELD, compliance, and safety functionality that overlaps DJM's CSA monitoring, driver logs, and audit preparation services at scale.
• Fleetio: Modern fleet management SaaS that automates DOT compliance tasks including vehicle inspections, maintenance, and document expiration tracking. Represents the software-led competitive threat to DJM's manual compliance services.
• DriverReach: Driver qualification file management platform that automates a portion of the FMCSA compliance work DJM performs manually (CDL verification, MVR checks, DQ file maintenance) for small and mid-sized carriers.

Broad incumbents

• Samsara: Enterprise fleet management platform with built-in DOT compliance features such as HOS, DVIR, and document management. Competes with DJM by bundling compliance into a broader fleet operations suite for mid-market and enterprise carriers.
• J.J. Keller & Associates: Established compliance publisher and consulting firm serving motor carriers with DOT/FMCSA regulatory products, training, and managed services. Directly comparable to DJM in core DOT compliance content but operates at far greater scale with both products and advisory services.

Direct peers

• Foley Carrier Services: Specialist in DOT compliance, FMCSA registration, and new entrant setup for small and mid-sized motor carriers. Mirrors DJM's New Fleet Solutions and Compliance Programs offerings with a similar target customer profile.
• US Compliance Services: DOT/FMCSA compliance and consulting firm offering safety audits, mock DOT audits, drug and alcohol program management, and ongoing compliance monitoring. Closely matches DJM's recurring compliance retainer model.
• Compliance Safety Group (CSG): DOT compliance and safety consulting firm providing mock audits, CSA score improvement, and DOT audit representation for motor carriers. A direct peer in the recurring compliance retainer and audit defense space.
• SafetyFirst Compliance: DOT compliance consultancy focused on CSA score management, audit preparation, and driver qualification file services for motor carriers. Overlaps with DJM across the recurring compliance workflow.

Others

• QuickBooks DOT Compliance (Intuit): Mainstream small-business software provider that offers DOT compliance add-ons for contractors and small fleets. Represents the low-cost, self-service alternative that competes against DJM's paid-consulting model for entry-level customers.
