Is your website accessible, compliant and fit for purpose?
Could your website prevent you from winning a contract, exclude potential customers or expose your organisation to unnecessary risk?
Website accessibility is about more than meeting technical standards. It is about ensuring that people with disabilities can use your website, that your business addresses its applicable obligations, and that customers and procurement teams can engage with you confidently.
Avalon uses automated tools and manual testing to assess your website’s accessibility, identify problems and recommend practical improvements. Unlike a review that leaves you to work out what happens next, we can also implement the changes needed to improve accessibility and bring your website into closer alignment with recognised standards.
Understand your compliance obligations. We assess your website against WCAG 2.2 and, where relevant, the New Zealand Government Web Standards and applicable procurement requirements. We help you understand where your website falls short and what needs attention.
Identify and reduce risk. Accessibility issues can create legal, reputational and commercial risks. Our review identifies potential problem areas so you can take informed action to address them.
Improve the customer experience. Accessible websites are generally easier to navigate and use. Addressing accessibility issues can improve the experience for people using mobile devices, keyboard navigation, screen readers and other assistive technologies.
Reach a wider audience. An inaccessible website can prevent potential customers from finding information, completing forms or purchasing products and services. Removing these barriers helps more people engage with your business.
Strengthen your commercial position. Government agencies and larger organisations may have accessibility requirements as part of their procurement processes. Demonstrating that you take accessibility seriously can help you meet these expectations and reduce barriers to winning work.
Demonstrate inclusion and professionalism. An accessible website shows that you recognise the needs of different users and are committed to providing an inclusive experience.
From assessment to improvement. We don’t simply identify problems and leave you to resolve them. Avalon can implement the recommended changes, helping you improve your website’s accessibility, address identified shortcomings and provide a better experience for your customers.
