A working accessibility review for the current site build. This page captures high-priority issues observed in the repo, summarizes the current risk profile, and serves as the internal handoff page for remediation planning.
This review focused on the current repo implementation rather than a browser-assisted WCAG certification pass. It reviews the shared shell, page source fragments, and generated content patterns for issues that commonly block keyboard users, screen-reader users, and users who depend on reliable link and form semantics.
The findings below are intentionally practical: they identify where the site still contains dead-end links, hover-first navigation patterns, unlabeled or minimally labeled controls, and click-only JavaScript interactions that should be remediated before launch. The build currently contains 136 generated pages.
0 placeholder href="#" targets were found across 0 source pages, and the shared footer still publishes 0 placeholder bottom-link target.
Keyboard and screen-reader users can tab into controls that appear interactive but do not navigate anywhere, creating dead ends and breaking trust in the interface.
A shared skip-navigation affordance is now present across 129 public pages that use the main site template.
The shared shell now gives keyboard and assistive-technology users a direct path to the main content region before repeated navigation.
0 inline onclick handlers were found across 0 pages, including filter bars, tabsets, and expandable status groups.
These patterns do not currently expose robust keyboard behavior or ARIA state management, so interaction models are likely inconsistent for assistive technology users.
The shared navigation now includes disclosure controls and keyboard state management across 129 public pages that use the shared shell.
Top-level nav groups now expose explicit disclosure controls, visible focus states, and scripted open-close behavior for keyboard users.
0 email-input pattern was found without an obvious associated label, and 374 target="_blank" links appear across 31 pages without rel or new-window treatment.
Form controls need programmatic labels, and external links that open new tabs should be clearly communicated and implemented consistently for assistive technology and security expectations.
Scanned page source fragments, generated page patterns, and shared navigation/footer logic for broken links, inline click handlers, missing semantics, and repeated shell-level risks.
Reviewed the shared shell for skip-link availability, dropdown interaction patterns, and repeated footer behavior because those issues propagate across large portions of the site.
Checked newsroom, hub, services, homepage, and About patterns to identify repeatable issues that are likely to affect many pages rather than one-off exceptions.
This report does not replace a manual keyboard pass, screen-reader test, or measured color-contrast review in the browser. It should be treated as the working backlog for that next round.
Replace placeholder href targets in hubs, homepage, AI pages, and footer links so every visible control reaches a real destination or is removed.
Add a skip link and convert hover-first dropdowns into explicit, keyboard-operable disclosure controls with visible focus management.
Replace click-only patterns with semantic buttons, programmatic state, and proper keyboard behavior for tabs, accordions, and filter controls.
After source cleanup, test keyboard flow, focus visibility, screen-reader announcements, and contrast on the major dark-gradient pages before launch.
