Digital & ICT
Accessibility Audits
As Africa's Centre of Excellence, we evaluate web platforms, mobile applications, and enterprise software against strict WCAG 2.2 standards, ensuring your digital presence is flawlessly accessible to every user.
Exactly What We Inspect
Our audits go far beyond automated checklists. We conduct deep technical inspections of your code, design, and content layers to guarantee full compliance up to Level AA and AAA standards.
Screen Reader Compatibility
- Proper ARIA labels & roles
- Semantic HTML5 structure
- Meaningful alternative text for media
Keyboard Navigation
- Visible, high-contrast focus indicators
- Logical tab sequencing
- Prevention of "keyboard traps"
Visual Presentation
- Minimum 4.5:1 contrast ratios
- Text resizing up to 200% without breakage
- No reliance on color alone for cues
Forms & Error Handling
- Persistent, programmatically associated labels
- Clear error identification & suggestions
- Redundant entry prevention (WCAG 2.2)
Cognitive & Timing
- Mechanisms to pause moving/updating content
- Extended session timeouts for complex tasks
- Elimination of flashing content (seizure thresholds)
Mobile & Touch Targets
- Minimum 24x24px target sizes (WCAG 2.2)
- Device orientation independence
- Pointer cancellation and drag mechanics
Beyond Automated Checklists
Automated tools only catch about 30% of accessibility issues. Our Certified Accessibility Auditors combine advanced engines with rigorous manual evaluations to deliver a flawless assessment.
Automated Heuristic Scanning
We utilize enterprise-grade testing engines like Lighthouse and Axe DevTools to establish a rapid baseline and identify programmatic DOM errors.
Manual Expert Evaluation
Our auditors manually tab through every workflow, inspect complex ARIA architectures, and evaluate contextual visual contrast that machines miss.
Assistive Technology Simulation
We test your platform using industry-standard screen readers (NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver) to guarantee actual human usability.
Audit Deliverables
1. Comprehensive WCAG Report
Line-by-line documentation of every failure, mapping exact URLs and code snippets to specific WCAG 2.2 success criteria.
2. Code Remediation Blueprint
Actionable, developer-friendly recommendations providing the exact ARIA labels, JavaScript adjustments, or CSS needed to fix issues.
The Digital Transformation
Typical Findings
- ✕ Unlabeled buttons & inputs invisible to screen readers
- ✕ Severe 'keyboard traps' in modals and navigation menus
- ✕ Low contrast text that fails WCAG AA standards
- ✕ Missing alternative text for critical charts and images
- ✕ Inaccessible PDFs blocking vital institutional information
After GDDC Audit
- Flawless screen reader navigation via robust ARIA
- 100% keyboard operability for all interactive elements
- WCAG AA/AAA compliant color contrast profiles
- Meaningful semantic HTML improving SEO and access
- Significantly reduced legal risk & wider market reach
