Remember to add language in the contract around digital accessibility. It can be requiring a website to meet WCAG 2.x AA standards. Bashin reached a settlement in the case and the developer of the inaccessible website had to pay out. The False Claims Act can protect government agencies if digital accessibility language is included in the contract.
