Our approach
Accessibility is part of the product structure rather than a separate visual theme. The current interface is designed with semantic page landmarks, keyboard access, visible focus states, labeled forms, status messages, responsive layouts, sufficient text size, and reduced-motion support.
Current interface practices
- a skip link and logical heading structure;
- keyboard-operable navigation, filters, checklists, and forms;
- minimum 44-by-44-pixel touch targets for primary interactions;
- persistent labels and instructions for form controls;
- text labels and icons together for evidence states;
- status and error messages announced to assistive technology;
- responsive layouts tested for narrow and large viewports;
- support for the reduced-motion preference; and
- print support for the contractor comparison checklist.
Known limitations
The platform and its third-party integrations are still expanding. A third-party payment, analytics, chat, map, or communication interface may have accessibility behavior outside the direct control of this site. The current public shell avoids embedding unverified third-party widgets.
Feedback and accommodation requests
If a page, form, filter, document, or interaction is difficult to use, submit the issue through the contact form and choose “Accessibility feedback.” Include the page URL, task you were trying to complete, device, browser, and assistive technology when useful. Do not include sensitive information that is not needed to investigate.
Alternative access
If you cannot complete a form because of an accessibility barrier, use the contact route to request a reasonable alternative. A request will be reviewed, but the site does not promise a specific response time or service match.
Ongoing work
New public routes and major interaction changes should be reviewed with automated and manual keyboard, focus, zoom, contrast, and screen-reader checks appropriate to the change.
