A Florida-based, veteran-owned consultancy that helps public agencies establish where they stand against the Title II deadline and decide what to fix first. The deliverable is an Accessibility Conformance Report: every WCAG 2.1 Level A and AA success criterion marked and evidenced, dated and signed. Delivered by one principal with an enterprise data and automation background.

Services

Title II Readiness Assessment

Automated scanning plus manual sample testing, including keyboard and screen reader checks, against WCAG 2.1 Level AA. Review of the published accessibility statement, coordinator designation, and grievance procedure against what the rule requires. Deliverable is an Accessibility Conformance Report (ACR) in VPAT 2.5 format, the same document you already require from your software vendors, plus a prioritized roadmap with effort bands and a one-page summary suitable for a board or budget request. Two to four weeks.

Document Inventory & Triage

Catalog every PDF and document across the agency's web properties, then classify each one: retire, replace with an accessible HTML page, remediate, or leave. Remaining items are prioritized by page traffic, program criticality, and exposure. Deliverable is a scoped work order a remediation vendor can execute against, so per-page remediation spend goes to documents that are actually in use.

Program & Policy Setup

Accessibility statement naming the standard and conformance level, Title II coordinator designation, grievance procedure, self-evaluation documentation, procurement language requiring a VPAT or ACR before purchase, and content governance so newly published material stops regressing.

Ongoing Monitoring

Recurring scans, quality review on newly published content, and annual reassessment against the standard.

Differentiators

  • No product to sell. No overlay, no platform license, no per-page remediation quota. The recommendation follows the finding.
  • Evaluation only, never the remediation. A conformance claim written by whoever built or repaired the site is self-assessment. Staying out of the repair work is what lets the report mean something, and it gives you a specification your remediation vendor bids against rather than a per-page quote you have no way to check.
  • A tagged PDF is not a conforming PDF. Most checkers ask only whether tags exist. A document can have them and still be unreadable: no headings, tables with no header cells, images with no alt text. That is what an auto-tag pass leaves behind, and often what an agency receives after paying to have it fixed.
  • The report says what it did not check. Reading order, meaningful alt text, and focus order are not machine-detectable, and asserting conformance on automated evidence alone is how a report becomes the exhibit. An unanswered criterion reports as Not Evaluated, never as Supports.
  • Triage before spend. Most agencies are about to pay per-page rates on documents that are obsolete, duplicated, or should never have been PDFs. Sorting that first is the cheapest money in the program.
  • Built for volume. An enterprise data and automation background applied to cataloging and prioritizing document libraries that run to five figures.
  • Florida presence. In Punta Gorda, on-site as needed, and certified in the Florida vendor pool while the national firms work remote.
  • Set-aside vehicle. Certified Veteran Business Enterprise for state, county, municipal, and university preference.

Demonstrated Capability

Method. Findings are measured, not estimated. Where a check cannot be made honestly, for example text over a photograph where the background color is unknowable from the page, it is reported as indeterminate rather than asserted. A finding a client can disprove costs more than a finding never made.

Past performance. Newly formed, with no accessibility contract past performance to date. The reference implementation above is the firm’s own site, evaluated and remediated end to end under the same method proposed here, with the resulting report available on request. Manual assistive-technology validation at depth and high-volume document remediation are delivered with a specialist partner. Available to subcontract the assessment, inventory, and program layer under a remediation prime.
