Program Scope & Limitations
As a premier Drata partner, Trava built the Compliance Accelerator Program to help customers implement Drata quickly and efficiently — cutting the time to audit readiness without the rework and confusion that comes from configuring a GRC platform alone. The program focuses on foundational setup, clarity, and acceleration: project planning, core integrations, a baseline gap and risk assessment, and the first set of policies mapped to your frameworks.
CAP is intentionally scoped. It does not include full audit readiness for any compliance framework, support completing security questionnaires, acting as your security or compliance team, or control gap remediation — only the tasks explicitly listed in your project plan are in scope. If your organization needs that broader coverage, our Compliance Readiness and Compliance as a Service programs pick up exactly where CAP leaves off.
When the program wraps, you're not left to figure out the rest alone. Trava offers DIY guidance for continued progress, or a retained service option to support ongoing audit readiness and compliance — whichever fits where your team is headed next.
What's Included
Trava leads structured project planning to align your Drata implementation with your compliance goals — defining program scope and timeline, confirming the frameworks you're pursuing, and setting clear expectations for roles, responsibilities, and milestones.
We conduct a Drata-based gap analysis using your connected integrations and selected frameworks (SOC 2 and others as applicable) to establish a baseline view of compliance readiness, plus a lightweight introductory risk assessment to support your framework requirements.
We verify that your core systems — cloud infrastructure, identity providers, HRIS platforms, background check providers, and version control — are properly connected to Drata and that compliance data is flowing correctly to support evidence collection.
We establish a core set of up to 10 security policies, mapped to your applicable controls and frameworks, with one review iteration to address your questions and comments — plus a review of any existing policies you already have in place.
We advise on appropriate ownership across vendors, policies, and controls based on job function, and support assigning that ownership in Drata so every control has someone accountable behind it.
If your auditor provides a system description template, we upload it directly into Drata. If not, we guide you through a simplified system overview aligned with industry best practices.
We add up to 15 vendors to Drata's vendor module and complete one example vendor security review — typically for your cloud environment — plus guidance on maintaining vendor records and mapping vendors to controls going forward.
We verify that personnel data is properly synced in Drata — MFA enforcement, background check completion, multi-domain email environments — and flag any gaps that could impact your compliance monitoring.
We review your current endpoint security and training practices — MDM, the Drata Agent, or manual evidence — and confirm your security awareness training is in place, with best-practice guidance where it isn't.
We provide recommendations and introductions to auditors, penetration testing providers, and other vendors your compliance goals require — so you're not starting that search from zero.
We provide a tabletop exercise plan, supporting policy templates, and guidance for your team to run its own exercise — building incident response muscle before you need it for real.

Who It's For
You have someone in-house who can own discovery, scoping, reviews, and approvals. CAP gives that person a Trava Compliance Architect working alongside them, not a support ticket queue.
CAP runs primarily asynchronously with a limited number of calls, so your team makes progress on Drata without a multi-month calendar commitment.
CAP is the on-ramp. When you're ready for full audit readiness or ongoing compliance management, Compliance Readiness and Compliance as a Service pick up exactly where this program ends.
How We Work Together
Your engagement is managed through a customized project portal in ClickUp, where we track tasks, milestones, and deliverables with full visibility for your team.
We securely share and collaborate on your policies and key compliance documentation through Google Drive — a centralized place to review, approve, and store critical materials.
A dedicated Slack Connect channel keeps questions, updates, and decisions moving in real time, without waiting on meetings or email chains.
Every working session and check-in is structured with an agenda and documented with collaborative notes in Avoma, so action items and decisions are never lost.
Trava's platform powers vulnerability scanning, risk assessments, and automated workflows that accelerate your timeline and provide continuous insight into your security posture.
