Procurement laws
Laws say that government agencies must buy ICT products and services that are easy for everyone to use. By requiring accessibility in government contracts, these laws create pressure that affects what vendors make, even outside the public sector.
Key point
Procurement law is one of the strongest tools for making things accessible on a large scale. When a big public agency asks for accessibility in all ICT purchases, suppliers must follow those rules to try to get contracts. This often means making their products better for all customers, not just government ones.
