Consulting
Practical accessibility support for teams working on active projects.
Accessibility consulting provides hands-on support where design and delivery decisions are actively being made. It’s shaped to fit existing workflows and constraints, helping teams address real accessibility challenges as work progresses rather than after the fact.
Accessibility support
embedded in delivery
Most accessibility decisions are made while work is already in motion: when designs are evolving, code is being written and trade-offs are being discussed. Consulting support brings accessibility into those moments, where it can meaningfully shape outcomes.
Rather than providing abstract or retrospective guidance, consulting focuses on the decisions teams are actually making and the options available to them.
By working alongside teams, accessibility becomes easier to understand, apply and sustain. Teams build confidence, develop judgement and learn how to handle similar challenges themselves over time.
Consulting is shaped around ongoing work and the questions teams are trying to answer as delivery progresses. The focus is on providing timely, practical input that helps move delivery forward while improving accessibility outcomes.
Depending on the context, this can include:
Reviewing designs and wireframes to identify accessibility risks, patterns and opportunities early
Providing code review and technical guidance to address accessibility issues in implementation
Supporting teams through complex or ambiguous accessibility questions via targeted Q&A sessions
Advising on accessibility strategy, prioritisation and trade-offs within active delivery constraints
Helping teams identify gaps in accessibility knowledge or practice, and how to address them over time
The emphasis is on working with what already exists, building understanding as issues arise and supporting decisions that stand up beyond a single project.
What consulting looks like
Who consulting is for
Our consulting service is well suited to teams working on live digital products or services who want to improve accessibility as part of delivery, not as a separate or downstream activity.
It works particularly well for organisations that:
Are making ongoing design or development decisions and want accessibility input at the point those decisions are made
Have accessibility requirements to meet but need support interpreting and applying them in real project contexts
Are dealing with complex interfaces, legacy systems or competing delivery pressures
Want to build confidence and capability within teams rather than relying on one-off fixes or external reviews
This support can be used by product, design and engineering teams, as well as delivery leads or digital leaders who are close to how work gets done and how outcomes are delivered.
Consulting provides teams with clear, practical guidance during delivery, helping them move forward with greater confidence.
This includes:
Practical direction on how to address accessibility issues within real design and development constraints
Greater confidence in making and explaining accessibility-related decisions as work progresses
Improved understanding of how accessibility requirements apply in specific product and technical contexts
Reduced rework by identifying issues earlier and resolving them while options are still open
Stronger internal capability, with teams better equipped to handle similar accessibility challenges in future work
The outcome is not just better accessibility in the current project, but stronger judgement and confidence that carries forward into day-to-day delivery.
What teams gain
What our clients are saying
“Maia has been a fantastic asset to our project — with a background in web development she was able to understand the intricacies of what we were looking for, and provide feedback to both our developers and non-technical folk in a way that made sense to all.
Maia went above and beyond for us, ensuring that we weren’t just ‘fixing bugs’ but also creating learning opportunities for our developers and designers to create better accessible outputs next time. I look forward to bringing Maia’s expertise on another digital journey at some point in the future.”
