Accessibility Audit and 90-Day Fix Plan for Halo Insights
Overview
What this challenge is about.
Audit a B2B SaaS dashboard against WCAG 2.2 AA, then build a 90-day fix plan grouped by shared component. Earn a verifiable certificate.
The scenario
Halo Workforce Analytics (Dublin, ~280 staff) sells the Halo Insights dashboard to HR teams at large employers; enterprise buyers increasingly require documented WCAG 2.2 AA conformance before signing, making accessibility a direct revenue gate rather than a nice-to-have.
The Brief
What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.
Audit the twelve most-used Halo Insights dashboard pages against WCAG 2.2 AA and deliver a fundable 90-day remediation plan that unblocks a USD 1.2M enterprise deal.
Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate
- Conduct a defensible WCAG 2.2 AA audit by combining automated scans with manual keyboard and screen-reader testing.
- Classify accessibility failures by success criterion, severity, affected user population, and engineering effort.
- Translate a list of defects into a capacity-aware, component-bundled remediation plan a stakeholder will fund.
- Write implementation-ready pull-request specs that engineers can build without follow-up questions.
- Communicate accessibility risk to a non-specialist executive audience tied to a concrete business outcome.
