We audit.
We don't remediate.
That's the point.

Jackson Client Solutions™ is an independent compliance auditing and governance advisory firm. We assess organizations against the regulations, standards, and contract requirements they are held to, and we report what the evidence shows. We do not remediate, implement, or resell, so our findings are shaped by the evidence and nothing else.

The compliance landscape, September 2026

The obligations are real. So are the numbers.

Independent figures from the organizations that track this for a living. None of them are ours, which is rather the point.

95.9%Of the top 1,000,000 home pages fail WCAG 2Up from 94.8% a year earlier, averaging 56 detectable errors per page. WebAIM Million, 2026.

Deadlines on the calendar

What's already in force, and what's next.

A sample of the requirements our clients are being measured against right now. If yours isn't here, it's because the list is long, not because it's out of scope.

  1. Texas AI law in effect

    The Texas Responsible Artificial Intelligence Governance Act took effect, with Attorney General enforcement and civil penalties per violation. State agencies must disclose when residents are interacting with AI.

  2. HHS Section 504 digital accessibility

    Larger recipients of HHS funding, including most hospitals and health systems, were required to bring web content and mobile apps to WCAG 2.1 AA.

  3. ADA Title II, larger public entities

    State and local governments serving 50,000 or more people must meet WCAG 2.1 AA for web content and mobile apps. DOJ extended this date by one year in April 2026; the obligation didn't go away.

  4. ADA Title II, smaller entities and special districts

    Public entities under 50,000 people and special district governments reach the same standard one year later.

The problem with most compliance vendors

An auditor who also sells the fix is grading their own homework.

When the same firm finds the gaps and bills to close them, every finding is a sales lead. Scope creeps. Severity drifts. And when the regulator, the prime contractor, or the plaintiff's attorney asks who verified the work, the answer is "the people who did it."

What independence gets you

  • Findings rated on evidence and risk, not on what's profitable to fix.
  • A report written to serve as third-party verification for a board, a prime, or a procurement office.
  • A clean separation of duties you can point to when someone asks about conflicts of interest.
  • Freedom to remediate with whoever you want: your internal team, your MSP, your web vendor, anyone.
  • Re-assessment by the same independent eyes after you remediate, so closure is documented, not assumed.

What we deliberately don't do

  • Remediate, implement, or configure the systems we assess.
  • Rewrite or remediate the documents and content we audit.
  • Resell tools, licenses, or managed services.
  • Issue certifications or attestations we're not accredited to issue.
  • Issue a final report you haven't reviewed. Findings are walked with your team first.

We stay on the audit side of the line so the line still means something.

What we do

Your obligations set the scope. We set the standard of evidence.

We don't sell a menu of audits. We start with what you're held to, whether it's a federal regulation, a state statute, a contract clause, an industry standard, or a funder's conditions, and we assess against that. Every engagement is scoped to a named requirement, a defined boundary, and a fixed price.

01

Readiness & gap assessments

Where you stand today against a requirement you have to meet, with a prioritized gap list any remediation team can execute. The right first step before a certification, a customer review, or a regulator's visit.

02

Compliance audits

Formal, evidence-based examination of whether controls, content, processes, or programs meet the standard they're held to. Delivered as a report you can hand to a board, an oversight body, or a court.

Details →
03

Independent verification

Re-testing after remediation, second opinions on another firm's work, and validation of vendor conformance claims before you rely on them.

Details →
04

Governance advisory & training

Plain-English guidance on what "compliant" looks like for your organization, and training for the people who own the controls, so the cheapest finding is the one that never gets written.

How an audit works

Reviewed with you before it's final.

Scope it. Collect the evidence. Test it. Walk every finding with your team before the report is issued. Brief the decision-makers. Then, once you've remediated with whoever you choose, we re-test and report on what changed.

Who we work with

Built for organizations where compliance isn't optional.

Our clients span sectors. What they share is an obligation someone else will check, and a need for evidence from a firm with nothing to sell.

Government agencies

Federal, state, and local bodies that need independent assessment capacity, delivered on a set-aside or sole-source basis, for the requirements they administer and the ones they're subject to.

Government contractors & suppliers

Primes and subcontractors who need a defensible answer to a contract clause, a supply-chain questionnaire, or a flow-down before the customer asks for one.

Regulated practices

Healthcare, legal, and financial firms whose clients, insurers, licensing boards, and regulators all want the same thing: proof that controls exist and work.

Public-facing institutions

School districts, colleges, and municipalities whose services have to work for every resident, and whose exposure is public when they don't.

Nonprofits & grant recipients

Organizations that need compliance evidence for funders, accreditors, and the communities they serve, without a consulting bill that eats the grant.

Growing commercial firms

Leadership teams facing a customer security review, a new regulation, or a governance question from the board, who want the honest picture before they spend on the fix.

Credentials & set-asides

Veteran discipline. Auditor's eye.

Founded and led by Adriana P. Jackson, MBA, a U.S. Air Force veteran and former federal IT specialist. Certified small business across four set-aside programs, registered and ready to contract at the federal, state, and local levels.
