Disaster Documentation and Reimbursement

Actionable data management: Tetra Tech’s proprietary RecoveryTrac® system is composed of a hardened, reliable infrastructure providing a scalable debris management solution and four applications to support debris management, fleet management, and employee time management.

Robust quality assurance: We also have developed industry-leading QA/QC standards and protocols—including use of our ADMS technology—to expedite the QA/QC process, significantly reduce ticket errors, and house all project data for real-time reporting and analysis.

Expedited reimbursement: Tetra Tech helps communities more easily receive funding needed to support the costs of removing debris, restoring public infrastructure, and resuming vital public services. Using real-time data to monitor and document recovery operations, we also assist our clients to access much-needed reimbursement more quickly for long-term recovery.
