If a website or app is already operational… remediation will often prioritise critical issues where the risk is highest that users find themselves excluded.
Factors to consider when prioritizing accessibility issues
- Impact (high/medium/low) - high impact prevents users from completeing and essential task/process
- Effort
- Frequency
- Importance (high traffic areas)
- Cost-benefit
- Impact on the interface
- Legal risk
Fixing vs Redesigning
- Severity and scope
- Code complexity
- User impact
- Resource availability
- Future-proofing
