At ISU, procurement professionals and administrative staff play a crucial role in ensuring the technologies and services we purchase are accessible. From collecting Voluntary Product Accessibility Templates (VPATs) to including appropriate contract language, your actions help prevent the adoption of tools that are inaccessible and non-compliant.
Following accessibility best practices during procurement not only ensures compliance with WCAG 21. AA, ADA Title II, and ISU’s Digital Accessibility Policy also mitigate legal risk and support a more accessible digital university. This page offers targeted tools, tips, and training to help you in the procurement process of accessible digital technologies and services.
