Accessibility Compliance Testing

The contract requires the evaluation and remediation of software to ensure compliance with Texas Accessibility Standards, specifically Title 1, Chapter 206 and 213 of the Texas Administrative Code, for an Electronic Information and Communication Technology system known as EIR. The goal is to make the digital environment fully accessible and usable for individuals with disabilities by identifying barriers and implementing corrective measures that align with state-mandated accessibility requirements. All work must be performed to ensure the system meets technical and functional standards for screen reader compatibility, keyboard navigation, color contrast, and other accessibility features under TAC guidelines. This is a subcontract opportunity issued by the Texas Workforce Commission, with a posted date of July 23, 2026, and a mandatory response deadline of August 6, 2026, at 4:00 PM. The NAICS code 541690 categorizes the work under other scientific and technical consulting services, indicating a focus on specialized accessibility expertise rather than general IT support. The place of performance and point of contact details are unspecified, but all work must deliver a compliant EIR system usable by the public across Texas. Interested parties must submit proposals through the Texas SmartBuy portal, and successful contractors will be expected to deliver a fully remediated system that passes state compliance review and demonstrates measurable improvements in accessibility outcomes.
