VPAT / ACR
Voluntary Product Accessibility Template: standardized format for documenting a product's accessibility conformance. Produces an Accessibility Conformance Report (ACR). Required for US government procurement.
In plain terms
A standard report a company fills in to document how accessible its product is. Buyers — especially governments — ask for it.
Why this matters
Buyers — especially governments and large enterprises — increasingly demand a VPAT before they'll purchase. No credible accessibility documentation can mean losing the deal outright.
