Website Accessibility Remediation

This framework describes our end-to-end approach to auditing, remediating, and certifying websites for WCAG 2.2 AA and Section 508 compliance, including VPAT and Accessibility Conformance Report (ACR) deliverables.

Accessibility testers at work in an open office. A tester in dark glasses and a headset works at the keyboard beside a colleague pointing at a travel website on screen. Another monitor shows Responsive Website Design on a tablet and phone next to an accessibility checklist: Alt Text, Keyboard Navigation, and Contrast Check.

From Initial Audit Through Certification

Pillar One

Initial Accessibility Audit

Discovery and Baseline

We begin with a structured audit of your existing website against WCAG 2.2 AA and Section 508 criteria, combining automated scans with expert manual testing.

  • Page inventory and template mapping
  • Automated rule-set scanning with issue clustering
  • Keyboard and screen reader spot checks
  • Risk and impact scoring for each finding
Outcome: Baseline accessibility report
Pillar Two

Remediation Strategy and Roadmap

Planning and Prioritization

Using the audit results, we design a remediation roadmap that aligns accessibility fixes with your development workflow and release cadence.

  • Issue grouping by templates, components, and patterns
  • Prioritization based on user impact and legal risk
  • Definition of success criteria and test cases
  • Integration with your backlog and sprint planning
Outcome: Actionable remediation plan
Pillar Three

Code Remediation and Design Updates

Implementation

We collaborate with your team, or implement directly, to correct issues in markup, styling, and interaction patterns while preserving brand and UX.

  • Semantic HTML and ARIA alignment
  • Color contrast and focus state improvements
  • Form, error messaging, and validation updates
  • Component library and design system adjustments
Outcome: Accessible templates and components
Pillar Four

User-Centered Accessibility Testing

Verification

After remediation, we validate changes through structured testing that reflects real assistive technology usage and diverse user scenarios.

  • Keyboard-only navigation and focus order review
  • Screen reader testing with common AT combinations
  • Mobile and responsive behavior checks
  • Regression testing against previous issues
Outcome: Verified WCAG 2.2 AA conformance
Pillar Five

Documentation, VPAT and ACR

Formalization

We translate technical findings into procurement-ready documentation, including Voluntary Product Accessibility Templates (VPAT) and Accessibility Conformance Reports.

  • Mapping of features to WCAG and Section 508 criteria
  • Clear statements of support, partial support, and exceptions
  • Creation or update of VPAT and ACR artifacts
  • Guidance for publishing accessibility statements
Outcome: VPAT and ACR documentation
Pillar Six

Ongoing Governance and Certification

Sustainability

Accessibility is not a one-time project. We help you embed governance, monitoring, and training so conformance is maintained over time.

  • Accessibility policies and coding standards
  • Developer and content author training
  • Scheduled re-audits and monitoring dashboards
  • Certification updates as the site evolves
Outcome: Sustainable accessibility program
