A VPAT, which stands for Voluntary Product Accessibility Template, documents a software's compliance with Section 508 accessibility standards. When purchasing software through IT Operations Management, we check to ensure that the vendor has a VPAT for the product. If you purchase software without going through IT Operations Management, always ask the vendor for a copy of its VPAT.
