The ADA Title II Deadline Is Coming.
The U.S. Department of Justice now requires public colleges, universities, and state and local government entities to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA by April 26, 2027. That includes the software you buy. VPAT Score helps you evaluate your vendors' VPATs at scale before the clock runs out.
The Rule, the Deadline, and What It Means for Procurement
The 2024 DOJ rule adopted WCAG 2.1 Level AA as the standard for state and local government web content and mobile apps, including the digital products you procure from third parties.
Who Is Covered
All state and local government entities, including public colleges, universities, community colleges, and state education agencies. Their websites, mobile apps, and digital services must conform.
The Deadlines
Entities serving 50,000 or more people, which includes most public universities and state agencies, must comply by April 26, 2027. Smaller entities have until April 26, 2028. Both dates were extended one year from the original rule.
The Standard
WCAG 2.1 Level AA is the required technical standard. It is the exact standard VPAT Score grades every vendor VPAT against.
Your Vendors Are in Scope
Title II reaches content and services delivered through third parties. The LMS, student portal, library database, and classroom tools you buy must meet the standard, and their VPATs are your evidence.
Evaluate at Scale
You may have dozens of vendors to check before the deadline. VPAT Score turns each VPAT into an objective grade and weighted risk rating in minutes, so you can prioritize the products that put you most at risk.
Build Your Audit Trail
Document that you evaluated each vendor's accessibility before the deadline. A defensible record of VPAT reviews is what demonstrates good-faith compliance.
