Accessibility Procurement Requests Instructions
...
The University commits that Information and Communication Technology products and services acquired, adopted, developed or updated after the effective date of the Information and Communication Technology policy (effective: 1/1/18) shall be accessible to individuals with disabilities. This page lists the different request types submitted to and/or reviewed by the Accessibility Assessment Committee (AAC).
Purchasing and the Procurement Process – Co-Requirements
Securing approval by the AAC following an accessibility review is one of several required steps in the overall procurement process. AAC approval does not take the place of other purchasing requirements which may include the completion of contract terms and conditions, Information Technology security review, and Syracuse University Purchasing Department requirements as set forth in the Syracuse University Purchasing Policy. For questions pertaining to the financial aspect of the procurement process, please contact the Purchasing Department at purchase@syr.edu.

In the event that a full review has been completed by the Accessibility Assessment Committee (AAC) and has resulted in a procurement denial, the Policy has provisions to escalate to the Accessibility Compliance Committee (ACC) to request an exception. Exceptions must strictly fit one of the exception categories in the policy, as outlined in the 'Exception Appeal Request' link. Submitting an exception request does not guarantee approval.
