Industries / Education, Public & Nonprofit / Government Agencies

Government Agencies

Plain language. Accessible. Auditable.

The short version

Agency sites are judged on whether a citizen can finish a task. We build sites organised around tasks, written in plain language, accessible by design and built to pass review.

§ 1

What’s broken

  • Navigation mirrors the org chart.
  • Forms and services are PDFs.
  • Accessibility is a statement, not a tested fact.
§ 2

What we build

  • Task-first architecture Top tasks on the homepage, services as pages, departments second.
  • Digital forms and services Accessible online forms with status and confirmations.
  • Accessibility and compliance WCAG 2.2 AA, tested, with content models that keep it compliant.
§ 3

Three things you could walk away with

  1. An agency or municipal website Accessible custom build with task-first architecture.
  2. A service or program microsite One program, explained and applied for online.
  3. An accessibility audit and remediation Report, fixes and training for your content team.
