Procuring Accessible Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)
| Description |
| When buying software, hardware and other kinds of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), if we don’t ask for accessibility, we won’t get it. What contract language and processes will help us reach the Government of Canada’s goal of being “the most accessible public service in the world”?
This session will give you an overview of the Accessible Canada Act, the Accessibility Strategy for the Public Service of Canada, roles and responsibilities of technical and contracting authorities, and how SSC is supporting the procurement of accessible ICT goods and services. Through this session, you will also learn about SSC’s approach to accessible ICT procurement. Participants may adapt this approach to suit their own department’s needs. Additional resources: We encourage participants to retrieve the SSC Accessible ICT Procurement Guide from the OPSA procurement GCpedia page, as it provides additional details and important supplementary information. If you have any questions or require accommodation for this session, please contact the AAACT Events team by 25 August, 2023 so we can make arrangements in advance.

Procuring Accessible Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) – Practical information on understanding Accessibility Conformance Reports and Accessibility Roadmaps (V1.0)
| Description |
| Accessibility Conformance Reports (ACR) and roadmaps play an important role in checking for accessibility when we purchase software, hardware and other kinds of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Suppliers typically provide ACRs as part of the procurement or exploration of the ICT solutions that are available in the marketplace. An ACR should provide the information you need to understand the accessibility of the ICT solution. Successful suppliers in a procurement create roadmaps to outline their plan to address known accessibility defects and how they will continue to remain conformant once they have largely fixed the known issues.
This session will:
