The first step is don’t panic — and don’t ignore it.

If Alberta Transportation asks you to log in to your Carrier Profile or sends an audit notice, it usually means they want to review your safety and compliance records.

📌 Your best move:
Call us or message us on WhatsApp. We offer a free initial consultation where we review your situation and explain:

• What type of audit this is

• What Alberta is asking for

• Whether you actually need full audit preparation

There is no risk and no obligation.

This information is taken directly from the government of Alberta.

Carriers may find it helpful to invest in a consultant for:

• better understanding the transportation safety laws that apply to their company

• developing and implementing effective safety and maintenance programs

• addressing significant safety concerns (including rating changes, directions from the Registrar)

• assistance in monitoring drivers for transportation safety compliance

• assistance in completing, preparing for, or taking action after a transportation safety audit

• assistance in establishing a company culture of safety

• training services (for example: cargo securement, hours of service, trip inspections, etcetera)

Yes — and new carriers often need the most support.

In Alberta, new trucking companies are commonly audited within their first 12 months of operation. Many carriers are not fully ready when this happens, simply because the rules are still new to them.

We help:

• New trucking companies

• Owner-operators

• Small and mid-sized Alberta fleets

For new carriers, we focus on:

• Setting things up correctly from the start

• Preparing for early or first-year NSC audits

• Fixing gaps before they become audit problems

• Building a strong Safety Fitness Rating early

Getting this right in your first year can save you time, stress, and serious issues later.

There is no one fixed price, because every carrier audit is different.

The cost depends on:

• Whether the audit is local (Alberta only) or Canada-wide / Canada–US

• How soon the audit deadline is

• How organized your documents are

• The size of your fleet and number of drivers

👉 That’s why we start with a free consultation.
Once we understand your situation, we give you clear pricing before any work starts.

No surprises.

Yes — it’s truly free.

The consultation is used to:

• Understand your audit notice

• See how urgent the situation is

• Decide whether audit preparation is even required

Sometimes carriers don’t need full audit support — and we’ll tell you that honestly.

📞 Just call or WhatsApp message us. There’s no risk.

It depends on the same factors as pricing.

Timelines are affected by:

• Audit deadline set by Alberta

• Audit scope (provincial vs national / cross-border)

• How quickly documents can be gathered

• How responsive the carrier is

In urgent cases, preparation may be possible within about one week, but this is not guaranteed.

We’ll always be upfront about what is realistic for your situation.

Audit preparation is a collaborative process.

MKON will:

• Guide you step by step

• Review and organize documents

• Explain what Alberta requires

• Help you prepare correctly

However, the carrier owner must be involved.

You will need to:

• Provide documents

• Respond on time

• Work with us during the process

If the owner cannot invest the time needed, the audit preparation cannot be completed properly.

Failing an audit can affect your Safety Fitness Rating, which may lead to:

• Increased monitoring

• Operational restrictions

• In serious cases, being taken off the road

Proper audit preparation greatly reduces this risk.
That’s why carriers contact us before submitting documents.
