Conformance Snapshot
| Criteria Group | Conformance | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Keyboard Access | Supports | Primary navigation and core user flows are designed to be operable without a mouse. |
| Screen Reader Access | Partially Supports | Critical forms and dialogs include semantic labeling, with ongoing improvements for some legacy dashboards. |
| Color / Contrast | Supports | Core product surfaces target accessible contrast ratios for text and controls. |
| Responsive / Zoom | Supports | Public pages and primary dashboards support browser zoom and common mobile viewport sizes. |
| Complex Charts / Data Views | Partially Supports | Named chart surfaces are available, but some areas still need richer text alternatives and summaries. |
| Legacy Admin Surfaces | Partially Supports | Older interfaces are under active remediation as part of ongoing accessibility and UI debt reduction. |
Testing and Review Approach
- Code-level reviews for semantic HTML, labels, input types, and screen-reader announcements
- Manual keyboard testing across major web flows
- Targeted fixes for modal semantics, chart labels, and form field accessibility
- Ongoing remediation of legacy static pages and older dashboard structures
