VPAT or ACR Risk Assessment

Description

Validate Your Vendor’s Claims: Objective VPAT or ACR Risk Assessment for Third-Party Products!

Are you reliant on a third-party vendor’s VPAT (Voluntary Product Accessibility Template) or ACR (Accessibility Conformance Report), but need independent assurance of its accuracy and your associated risk? In today’s compliance-driven landscape, simply trusting a vendor’s self-declaration can lead to significant non-compliance issues and unexpected liabilities. Our VPAT or ACR Risk Assessment service provides a crucial, objective, third-party review of existing VPATs/ACRs, assessing their validity and identifying any discrepancies or unaddressed defects in the product itself. We offer an independent look without any gain from either the vendor or your side, focusing solely on accuracy and compliance.

Our expert consultants will:

• Rigorously Validate Vendor VPATs/ACRs: We meticulously review the existing VPAT/ACR against the actual digital product’s accessibility features, testing its conformance to relevant WCAG (e.g., 2.1 AA, 2.2 AA) and Section 508 criteria.
• Identify Undisclosed Defects: Pinpoint any accessibility failures or non-conformance issues present in the product that are either inaccurately reported or entirely missing from the vendor’s VPAT/ACR.
• Deliver a Comprehensive Risk Report: You’ll receive a detailed report outlining the risks associated with relying on the existing VPAT/ACR, highlighting present defects that are not addressed, and providing specific questions for the vendor to gain clarity and ensure transparency.
• Ensure Objective Non-Compliance Check: Our focus is purely on uncovering objective non-compliance, providing you with an unbiased assessment of the product’s true accessibility posture.
• Strengthen Your Procurement Process: Empower your organization to make informed decisions when procuring third-party software or digital services, mitigating compliance risks before integration.

Imagine having clear, unbiased insight into the true accessibility of the products you’re relying on, protecting your organization from unforeseen compliance gaps. Our VPAT or ACR Risk Assessment is your essential safeguard in ensuring vendor transparency and product integrity. Don’t solely rely on self-declarations—verify with an independent assessment today!
