Accessibility evaluation of public websites and mobile applications

This tender concerns a comprehensive accessibility assessment of public websites and mobile applications. The primary objective is to evaluate and ensure that these digital platforms meet established accessibility standards, making them usable by a wide range of individuals, including those with disabilities. The assessment will likely involve a thorough review of the user interface, navigation, content structure, and overall user experience to identify any barriers to access. Key requirements will include adherence to international accessibility guidelines, such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), and potentially national legal frameworks governing digital accessibility. The scope of work may encompass both automated testing and manual evaluations conducted by accessibility experts. The outcome of this assessment is expected to provide detailed findings, recommendations for improvement, and a roadmap for remediation to enhance the accessibility of public digital services. This initiative is crucial for promoting digital inclusion and ensuring equitable access to information and services provided by public institutions. The specific public sector entities or the exact number of websites and applications to be assessed may be detailed further in the tender documentation. The successful bidder will be responsible for delivering a high-quality report that clearly outlines the current accessibility status and actionable steps for achieving compliance.
