Platform pillar

The Platform for Accessible Document Publishing

DocAccessible helps organizations publish documents as fully accessible, WCAG-compliant HTML instead of PDFs.

Start Platform PilotView Industry Workflows

Public Accessible Hosting

Publish accessible HTML document endpoints for web, intranet, and service portals.

  • • Stable publish URLs for recurring document classes
  • • Governed release path for updates and corrections
  • • Distribution model that reduces inaccessible attachment sharing

Accessibility Validation

Use WCAG-aligned quality checks with deterministic pass/fail controls before handoff.

  • • Pre-publish quality gates for headings, tables, links, and semantics
  • • Consistent acceptance criteria across teams and document types
  • • Traceable pass/fail evidence for governance review

Version Tracking

Track every content change with version history tied to workflow and support activity.

  • • Chronological change history linked to release states
  • • Post-handoff edit accountability for distributed teams
  • • Faster root-cause analysis on recurring defects

Audit Evidence

Retain status transitions, QA decisions, and issue resolution records for governance teams.

  • • Evidence snapshots for procurement and compliance audits
  • • Deterministic records for who approved and when
  • • Release documentation that supports defensible reporting

Shareable Accessible Links

Distribute stable, accessible URLs to users instead of sending inaccessible attachments.

  • • Link-first access model for websites, portals, and support channels
  • • Reduced mismatch between source attachment and corrected version
  • • Improved user access continuity during revisions

Lifecycle Support

Resolve accessibility incidents through document-linked support and continuity workflows.

  • • Severity-based incident routing tied to document versions
  • • SLA visibility from first response through resolution
  • • Continuity controls during offboarding or vendor transitions

How teams deploy this platform

Teams typically start with one high-impact document class, validate quality and SLA outcomes, and then scale by adding additional departments and publication streams.

Track 1: Operational baseline

Define high-impact document classes, assign owners, and establish baseline cycle-time and defect metrics.

Track 2: Controlled pilot

Activate core modules on one recurring class and measure QA, SLA, and publish reliability outcomes.

Track 3: Scaled governance

Expand to additional teams with standardized scorecards, policy controls, and monthly operations reviews.
