Meet Integrity's Leaders

President and CEO, Integrity Testing and Safety Administrators and Certified Substance Abuse Program Administrator

Lorri Smith has been assisting employers since 1993 in procedural development, implementation and management of all aspects of regulatory compliance for workplace drug and alcohol testing. In 2002, to honor her commitment of providing quality drug and alcohol testing program management to employers, Ms. Smith founded Integrity Testing and Safety Administrators, Inc.

Ms. Smith is a Certified Substance Abuse Program Administrator (C-SAPA).  Few in this industry (about 115) have achieved this distinction. The proper administration of substance abuse programs has become a complex task. It demands knowledge, ability and skills in areas where the need for formal training, education and knowledge has not previously been established. The “consumer” for this service may have little or no understanding of the needs, yet must choose a “provider” who is truly knowledgeable.  Companies who hire or contract for the services of a C-SAPA have a standard of demonstrated capability and assurance the individual is abreast of changing regulations and laws through the requirement of continuing education credits to maintain certification.

In addition, Ms. Smith is a Breath Alcohol Technician Trainer and Urine Collector Trainer for DOT compliance and is a Commissioner for the Substance Abuse Program Administration Certification Commission (SAPACC). Ms. Smith is also a Certified Medical Review Officer Assistant through the Medical Review Officer Certification Council (MROCC).
