Section 508 & VPAT Guide: How Tech Vendors Prepare Product Accessibility Templates
Enterprise buyers and government agencies require a verified VPAT before signing contracts. Learn how to audit your SaaS platform and generate a VPAT.
For B2B SaaS companies, government contractors, and enterprise software vendors, digital accessibility is a critical sales driver. Under Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, federal agencies and Fortune 500 enterprises require vendors to provide a Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) before purchasing software.
What is a VPAT and ACR?
A VPAT is a standardized document created by the Information Technology Industry Council (ITI). When completed with audit results, it becomes an Accessibility Conformance Report (ACR) detailing how your software complies with WCAG 2.1/2.2 AA and Section 508.
Why Enterprise & Government RFPs Require VPATs
Government procurement officers and university procurement committees are legally prohibited from purchasing non-compliant commercial software if an accessible alternative exists.
