Web Accessibility Audits & Compliance

Automated scans only catch roughly 30 - 40% of digital accessibility barriers. Chandra's robust audit methodology combines automated testing engines with rigorous manual inspection by certified accessibility specialists to map out a foolproof blueprint of your compliance health. Standards We Audit Against:

• WCAG 2.1 & 2.2 (Levels A, AA, AAA): Complete evaluation against the latest Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, ensuring compliance with the globally accepted benchmark for web content.
• Section 508: Compliance auditing for US Federal agencies and organizations receiving federal funding.
• EN 301 549 / European Accessibility Act (EAA): Alignment with European digital procurement mandates for public and private sector compliance.

VPAT® & Accessibility Conformance Reports (ACR)

If you sell software, digital products, or services to government entities, higher education, or enterprise corporations, a VPAT (Voluntary Product Accessibility Template)is an absolute procurement prerequisite.

Chandra authors comprehensive, legally defensible Accessibility Conformance Reports (ACRs) based on the latest VPAT templates (Section 508, WCAG, and International editions). The VPAT Process:

• Product Scoping: Defining the core components, workflows, and user paths of your digital product.
• Technical Evaluation: Subjecting the product interface to rigorous technical testing.
• Report Authoring: Generating the formal ACR documenting exactly how your product supports each applicable accessibility criteria (Supports, Partially Supports, Does Not Support, or Not Applicable).

Real-World Use Case Testing & Validation

Compliance isn't just about passing a checklist; it's about real human usability. Our specialized verification process ensures that your platform functions smoothly across critical end-to-end user flows.

• Assistive Technology (AT) Testing: We test your web applications using standard screen readers (NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver), screen magnification software, and keyboard-only navigation protocols.
• Critical Journey Validation: We map and validate core transactional use cases - such as user registration, complex form submissions, checkout funnels, and data sorting. This guarantees that alternative paths are fully functional and barrier-free.
• Regression & Verification Testing: Once your internal development team applies a patch, our auditors perform precise delta-testing to validate that the specific defect is successfully resolved without introducing new accessibility regressions.
