Inventory and triage
Get control over what exists and what matters.
Capture documents tied to real course offerings and organizational ownership.
Triage content into in-scope and out-of-scope, set instructional classification, and establish a baseline.
Track workflow states
Make progress visible and accountable.
Track each document through a defined lifecycle. Assign responsibility, lock scope, record updates,
and maintain a clear record of status changes over time.
Support validation and review
Separate “fixed” from “defensible.”
Capture review and validation outcomes and due dates. Track staleness and supersession so your program stays current.
What DRTS is ... and what it is not
DRTS is a repository of record for remediation artifacts
DRTS securely stores and preserves:
- The original document submitted for remediation
- Interim versions created during remediation
- The final “deemed compliant” version
- Associated metadata (timestamps, ownership, lineage)
This establishes a clear, auditable chain of custody for all remediation‑related documents.
DRTS is a system of record for the remediation process
DRTS is the authoritative source of truth for:
- Who performed remediation actions
- When those actions occurred
- How documents moved through defined workflow states
- Who provided final institutional sign‑off
DRTS tracks the process of remediation, not the legal definition of compliance.
DRTS is not a compliance arbiter
DRTS does not:
- Define what “compliant” means for any institution
- Determine whether a document meets ADA Title II or WCAG thresholds
- Certify compliance or provide legal opinions
- Replace institutional judgment or legal interpretation
Compliance decisions remain the responsibility of the institution and its designated personnel.
Institution‑defined criteria and overrides
DRTS provides baseline guidance derived from authoritative sources (for example, ADA Title II and WCAG) and allows
institutions to configure additional requirements or overrides to reflect their internal policies.
- Institution‑defined items are clearly labeled as institutional policy, not Title2Ready guidance.
- Institutions may choose to prioritize internal metrics (such as vendor scores) in addition to or instead of WCAG.
- Responsibility for those choices — and their legal sufficiency — rests with the institution.
Title2Ready does not endorse, validate, or certify any institution‑specific criteria. DRTS simply records the workflow
and decisions made under those criteria.
Working notes vs. official record
DRTS is designed to capture the fact of remediation — not every internal thought along the way. To keep audit
trails clear and defensible, DRTS:
- Captures statuses, assignments, and validation outcomes
- Does not function as a long‑term repository for informal working notes
- Supports institutions in maintaining a clean, authoritative record of what was decided and when
Summary: DRTS is the system of record for the remediation process and the repository of record for
remediation artifacts. It is not the system of record for compliance criteria or compliance determinations.
