Common questions about accessibility consultants in Adelaide
Plain answers to what Adelaide and South Australian organisations ask us most.
Do your Adelaide consultants work on site or remotely?
Both. We deliver audits, remediation and training remotely for Adelaide and South Australian clients, and travel for on-site workshops, testing sessions and stakeholder briefings when that adds value. The mix is agreed at the start of each engagement.
Which accessibility standards apply to Adelaide and South Australian organisations?
Most organisations work to WCAG 2.2 Level AA, the international accessibility benchmark (WCAG 2.2 defines 87 success criteria across levels A, AA and AAA). Australian government services are expected to meet WCAG 2.2 AA, and the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 makes inaccessible digital services a legal risk for any organisation. Documents are assessed against PDF/UA (ISO 14289).
Who do you work with in Adelaide and South Australia?
We work with government agencies, defence and healthcare organisations, and software companies building products for Australian users. Engagements range from a single audit before a launch to multi-year compliance and capability programmes.
How do I start with an accessibility audit in Adelaide?
Start with a short scoping conversation about your site or product, your deadline and the standard you need to meet. From there we provide a written scope with sample pages, effort and deliverables before any work begins. You can reach the team at [email protected].
