Open guideHow to use the procurement cluster
Start with the comparison hub and matrix, then move into the pages that define acceptance criteria, evidence requests, and contract language.
Use one weighted scorecard across vendors so the pilot and final decision reflect the same operating assumptions.
Evaluate support, continuity, and delivery governance as heavily as remediation features, especially for recurring document programs.
Common procurement questions
What should a fair pilot include?
A representative document cohort, a shared acceptance rubric, evidence expectations, and at least one follow-up support or revision scenario.
What is the biggest procurement mistake in accessibility buying?
Treating accessibility as a feature checklist instead of an operational service model with real ownership, QA, and support obligations.
Who should review this cluster internally?
Procurement, program owners, accessibility leads, IT, and any team that will own support or post-award continuity.
