An Accessibility Conformance Report (ACR) in VPAT format has become a critical tool in helping buyers assess accessibility risk and vendor capability. Yet many organisations struggle to know how to produce one, or use it effectively within sales conversations. Our VPAT Accessibility Conformance Report Workshop builds on our ACR creation, and helps organisations understand how the accessibility information in it influences procurement decisions and how to position products more effectively.
More organisations than ever are requiring evidence of accessibility before purchasing software and digital services.
Drawing on extensive experience supporting both buyers and software vendors, we advise product teams how to most effectively optimise the scores in their ACR through accessibility remediation, and provide practical guidance that helps sales teams understand the accessibility story behind their products and communicate it clearly.
Whether you’re responding to procurement requirements or looking to improve future accessibility outcomes, this workshop provides a practical starting point.
The difference our depth of experience makes
Many organisations can create ACRs/VPATs. What makes our work different is our experience of not only creating ACRs, but more importantly, reviewing hundreds of ACRs for our clients who want to make sure the tools that they procure are accessible. We train the buyers of IT Systems and SaaS in the questions they should ask. This workshop helps sales people in vendors know how to answer those questions, which go way beyond just what’s in the ACR.
