CMS Accessibility Compliance Checklist Instructions For acquisitions determined to have a low risk for Section 508 accessibility, the CMS Solicitation will instruct offerors to complete the CMS Accessibility Compliance Checklist to confirm the offeror’s Section 508 compliancy. An Accessibility Compliance Checklist is only suitable for acquisitions classified as a low risk. For those classified as high risk, a VPAT is required. See the Section 508 Procurement Guidance Tool (Insert Link) for how to determine the procurement risk level. Instructions to complete the checklist are as follows:
1. Complete the checklist that corresponds to the procurement (MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint etc.) format.
2. The checklist contains three tabs: Report Details, Results, and Time-Based Media. The offeror should address/complete the Report Details, Results tabs and the Time-Based Media tab if applicable.
3. Provide responses for each column heading of the Checklist. The chart below provides guidance for the necessary documentation required for each column of the checklist:
