MIS application unique to RSA
572 Form VERY complex
More data elements
More validation rules
More complex form structure
Not possible to use 572 for FY15

5. NATADS - National Assistive Technology Act Data System (1)
1. Day-to-day data management system
CATADA developed
Robust data management by event
Modules for each activity
Can use all activities or only parts
Built in validation rules for each entry
Produces valid federal aggregate data report
Optional program management (inventory)

Continued expansion based on user needs

6. NATADS - National Assistive Technology Act Data System (2)
Aggregate data system
ATAP developed / CATADA supported
Supports stand alone aggregate data entry
Includes all validation rules
Features to support accurate data entry
Done quickly to ensure FY15 data collected
