How to get stakeholder buy in for your product’s accessibility
summary
Mitratech makes its Tracker hiring product accessible by training 100+ developers QA and PMs, embedding a bottoms up flow that starts with designers, and adding context‑sensitive ARIA snippets tied to real components. A seven‑hour hands‑on over 15 HTML pages yields a 50% reduction in critical issues. Automation uses Axe DevTools and an auditor (BQ Systems), free trials to prove ROI, an Inclusive Design toolkit and a published VPAT.
