FIREANT’s Approach to Website Accessibility Audits

Automated accessibility testing tools are a valuable starting point, but they can only identify a portion of accessibility issues. At FIREANT, we understand that true accessibility requires a human touch. Our certified accessibility professionals go beyond automated scans, conducting rigorous manual reviews using a variety of assistive technologies like screen readers, keyboard navigation, and voice recognition software. We test with real users with disabilities whenever possible, gaining invaluable insights into their actual experiences. This human-centered approach ensures we identify both the obvious technical errors and the subtle usability issues that automated tools often miss. We understand the nuances of how people with different disabilities interact with technology, ensuring a truly inclusive experience.

WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) is the internationally recognized standard for digital accessibility. We meticulously audit your website against the latest WCAG 2.1, 2.2 guidelines, ensuring it meets the required criteria for different levels of conformance (A, AA, and AAA). We clearly explain the meaning and implications of each success criterion, helping you understand the “why” behind the recommendations. Our goal is not just to help you achieve technical compliance but to create a genuinely accessible and usable experience for all users. We’ll work with you to determine the appropriate level of conformance based on your specific needs and legal obligations.

We recognize that every organization has unique accessibility needs and budget constraints. That’s why we offer a flexible range of audit packages. From a targeted assessment of specific user flows to a comprehensive audit of your entire digital ecosystem, we can tailor our approach to meet your exact requirements. We’ll work closely with you to understand your goals and develop a customized audit plan that provides the most valuable insights within your budget. This ensures you receive the most relevant and cost-effective solution.
