Our Milestones
What a VPAT Is
The VPAT is the template. The completed document is an Accessibility Conformance Report. Buyers ask for one and mean the other about half the time.
- Current version: VPAT 2.5Rev, published by ITI in April 2025
- Four editions, chosen by who is buying from you
- Each line states supports, partially supports or does not support
- Every line should be backed by test evidence
- Self-reported and third-party tested reports are not weighed the same
Procurement Asking for a VPAT?
Send us the product and the buyer. We will tell you which edition you need.
Which Edition You Need
Pick by who is buying, not by which one you have seen before.
508 edition
US federal procurement. Revised 508 Standards, referencing WCAG 2.0 Level A and AA.
WCAG edition
Private sector buyers and Title II entities working to WCAG 2.1 AA.
EU edition
EN 301 549, for European public-sector procurement.
INT edition
All three standards in a single report, for vendors selling across markets.
Not sure which?
A scoping call settles the edition and the product boundary in a day.
Reviewing a vendor's VPAT?
We review the reports your own suppliers hand you. See below.
How It Runs
Recent Projects
Awards & Recognitions
With a focus on creating outstanding recognitions for our clients and one we are proud of.
Section 508 Compliance
Section 508 governs what federal agencies may buy. It is a procurement rule, not the ADA, and it sits one full WCAG version behind Title II.
- The Revised 508 Standards reference WCAG 2.0 Level A and AA
- The Title II rule requires WCAG 2.1 Level AA
- A product can satisfy 508 and still fall short for a city buyer
- We test to the higher bar and report against both
- Almost nobody publishes this distinction plainly

VPAT Review for Buyers
- ada.gov tells public entities to review their vendor contracts and gives them no help doing it
- We review the VPATs your CMS, payments, permitting and agenda-management vendors submit
- You get a plain-language read on what the report actually claims and what it quietly omits
- A small, fast engagement that usually pays for itself in one procurement cycle
A VPAT Is Not a Certification
- Nobody can certify a website or a product as ADA compliant
- A VPAT is a disclosure, either self-reported or third-party tested
- Third-party tested is what a procurement office weighs more heavily, and it is what we produce
- If a vendor offers you a compliance seal, ask what standard it was tested against and by whom
