Document Accessibility Onboarding Playbook

A clean 30-60-90 rollout plan for teams moving from ad hoc fixes to repeatable document accessibility operations.

Days 1-30: Baseline

Inventory document channels and classify by risk and business criticality.
Define your checklist gate and severity model for all releases.
Set pilot scope with representative file formats and owners.

Days 31-60: Workflow

Integrate checklist reviews into content publishing and QA workflows.
Track defects with fix owner, due date, and evidence attachments.
Run manual assistive-technology checks for high-impact templates.

Days 61-90: Governance

Publish KPI dashboard: pass rate, critical defects, turnaround time.
Define escalation path for recurring failures in shared templates.
Finalize evidence pack format for compliance and procurement reviews.

Team model recommendation: one accessibility lead, one QA owner, one content owner, and one engineering owner for remediation automation and release controls.
