Accessibility Consulting
As long as your website is live, the need for ADA compliance is never going to go away. Even if your site has been tested and it’s been fully remediated, you still need a long-term plan. Discover A11y can help you prepare for the future. We can help setup your compliance team, even you’re a team of one. Our consulting services come in different shapes and sizes depending upon your needs. Here’s some of what we offer.
Setting up an A11y Compliance Team
Even if your team consists of just one person, your team needs to be structured correctly, trained and have clear guidance on what to do for accessibility compliance across your entire online ecosystem. Setting up a compliance team is also one of the best things you can do to reduce your exposure to legal actions and to deliver long-term A11y success. This is our most comprehensive consulting program and includes all of the components that are broken out further below.
Content Checklists / Best Practices Guidance
Whether you feel like you’ve got a good understanding of accessibility compliance among you and your team or whether you’re new to A11y and want to know where to start, our Best Practices consultation will steer you in the right direction with a comprehensive list and a meeting with one of our experts to provide more details on what each list item entails.
Documentation & Record-keeping Support
One of the most important things to have for accessibility compliance is good record-keeping, especially if you should ever be involved in litigation.

- In-depth documentation and historical information about fixes that were made
- A record of all exceptions to issues chosen to not be fixed and the reasoning behind the decision
- A calendar/schedule for accessibility that includes:
- Testing
- Remediations
- Accessibility remediation results documented on a frequency of monthly to quarterly
- Meeting notes from accessibility reviews
