What is VPAT Compliance Testing
VPAT (Voluntary Product Accessibility Template) compliance testing is the process of evaluating your digital product or platform to assess how it meets established accessibility standards, such as WCAG 2.1, Section 508, and other local laws like AODA. The results are documented in a VPAT, which is often required in government procurement, contract bids, or organizational accessibility commitments.
For businesses operating in Canada, especially those bidding for federal contracts or working with public agencies, VPAT compliance testing services offer transparency and assurance that your digital assets are inclusive and legally aligned.
