VPAT and Audit Assessment Report
A VPAT and audit assessment report is a standardized document that evaluates the accessibility features of a product or service. We provide VPAT reports to help you assess the level of accessibility of your digital products or websites. Our experts analyze your product or conduct website audits based on WCAG or EN 301 549 guidelines and other accessibility standards, and then generate a comprehensive VPAT report. This report includes detailed information about the level of compliance with accessibility standards, highlighting any areas that need improvement. VPAT reports provide a structured evaluation of your product or service’s accessibility features. These reports are often created to comply with legal requirements or to demonstrate a commitment to accessibility. Here are some key characteristics of VPAT reports:
Structure
VPAT and audit assessment reports follow a standardized format and typically consist of several sections, including an executive summary, product details, tests and results, and an assessment of conformance to specific accessibility standards.
Accessibility evaluation
The VPAT and audit assessment report assesses various aspects of your product’s accessibility, such as compatibility with assistive technologies, keyboard accessibility, navigation, color contrast, alternative text for images, and more. It may list specific accessibility standards or guidelines used for the evaluation, like the EN 301 549 and Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).
