Digital Accessibility Audit
De Bussac Multimédia, your accessibility expert.
Our Digital Accessibility Expertise.
What is an accessibility audit ?
Digital accessibility is not just a legal obligation : it’s a strong commitment to inclusion and equal access to information. A website must be designed for everyone, without exception.
Digital accessibility means ensuring everyone can browse, understand and use your website.
A digital accessibility audit allows you to assess the level of compliance of your website or application with the RGAA and WCAG standards. This process identifies barriers faced by people with disabilities and establishes an action plan to improve digital inclusion. DBM De Bussac Multimédia supports you in this technical evaluation with a proven methodology, from analysis to writing your accessibility declaration.
A digital accessibility audit is a deep technical analysis carried out by experts on a representative sample of pages of your website. This expertise relies on the 106 criteria of the RGAA to examine every component of your digital interfaces. The process begins with defining a precise scope including required pages such as the homepage and legal notices.
Our auditors use specialized tools like ARA to perform their tests and identify technical non‑conformities. At the end of this evaluation, you receive a detailed audit report with prioritized corrective recommendations. A feedback meeting is held to explain the results and establish a corrective action plan suited to your technical teams.
106 criteria to respect : 3 possible outcomes.
Non‑compliant accessibility
If no audit has been carried out or if the result is under 50 %.
Partially compliant accessibility
If the audit result is over 50 %.
Fully compliant accessibility
If the audit result is equal to 100 %.

Who is concerned ?
- Public services : central and local administrations, territorial authorities, public institutions, health sector, social & cultural services …
- Private companies exceeding €2M and having more than 10 employees, in any sector : banking, insurance, e‑commerce, telecom, transport & mobility, energy, services …
- Associations : medical‑social organisations like ESAT, social or cultural associations such as NGOs …
But also all organisations that care about their image and user experience, because making a site accessible also improves its usability, SEO, and social impact.

Why is it important to carry out an accessibility audit ?
In France, there are 12 million people with disabilities (source : INSEE), that is one in six French people who are directly impacted by difficulties in digital access (visual, auditory, motor or cognitive disabilities).
An audit allows you to :
- Measure your official conformity rate via Ara numérique
- Identify precisely non‑compliance points
- Prioritize actions to take
- Comply with regulations and avoid legal risks
- Promote an inclusive approach to your users and partners
Therefore this audit is the essential starting point to make your site accessible and compliant thanks to our clear and proven methodology.
