Purchasing processes and public procurement
When a company buys products or hires services, they must clearly say that accessibility is required in the contract. Checking if vendors are truly accessible, instead of just believing their claims, is an important part of responsible buying.
Key point
Buying goods and services for the government is very powerful because it happens on a large scale. When government agencies ask for accessibility in big contracts, it affects supply chains and can improve basic accessibility in many markets, not just the public sector.
