Join us on September 10 for our next webinar, Way Too Early 2: Bridging the Gaps in the ICT Accessibility Lifecycle – Pre-Publication Content Quality Assurance.

Remediation earlier in the accessibility web and document content publication lifecycle saves time, enforces training, and reduces costs. Through proactive measures, agencies build accessibility into everyday content workflows.

The upcoming lecture “From ACR Claims to Campus Accountability: Managing Digital Accessibility Risk” will be presented at the Accessing Higher Ground 2026 conference, taking place November 16–20, 2026, at the Hilton Denver City Center in Denver, Colorado.

The one-hour general conference session will focus on how higher education institutions can evaluate vendor Accessibility Conformance Reports, or ACRs, identify risk in vendor accessibility claims, and connect procurement review to campus accountability.

The session will be presented by Dr. Mark Turner, President of Optimal Solutions Group and Chief Product Designer of Revelo Software. Dr. Turner will discuss practical approaches for assessing ACR evidence, spotting red flags, strengthening contract expectations, and managing digital accessibility risk across platforms, websites, documents, and other digital content.

Revelo Software is returning to MACo Summer 2026 on August 12 as an exhibitor at the Tech Expo!

This year’s theme, Build What’s Next, will examine the emerging challenges and opportunities shaping local governments and highlight forward-thinking strategies that position county governments and their residents for lasting success.

Visit Revelo at Booth 52 to learn about our approach to streamlining and improving public services through modular, compliant, and implementation-ready systems.

The American Contract Compliance Association (ACCA) will feature a new training course at its 2026 National Training Institute (NTI) focused on the growing role procurement and contract compliance professionals play in enforcing digital accessibility requirements under the ADA Title II Final Rule.

The session will be led by Dr. Mark Turner, Co-Founder and Chief Product Designer at Revelo Software and President & CEO of Optimal Solutions Group. Dr. Turner designed the VPAT/ACR Evaluator platform, which helps organizations evaluate accessibility conformance documentation, identify procurement risks, and support more consistent accessibility enforcement practices.

Learn about practical, efficient, and affordable end-to-end accessibility product solutions. We will cover an overview of the accessibility lifecycle and then dive deeper into areas that are pre-emptive, improve accuracy, streamline remediation, and facilitate oversight.
