GovAiCompliance: Revolutionary Section 508 Compliance Automation
A whitepaper on multi‑agent orchestration for government digital accessibility
Executive Summary
The U.S. public sector manages thousands of digital properties yet continues to rely heavily on manual accessibility testing and ad‑hoc remediation. GovAiCompliance introduces a multi‑agent orchestration (MAO) approach, powered by Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers and Playwright, to automate discovery, analysis, remediation, and reporting for Section 508 and WCAG 2.2 AA programs.
- Reduce manual testing time through intelligent automation
- Lower costs via automated workflows and accurate findings
- Privacy‑first browser‑contained processing and zero‑persistence model
- End‑to‑end from detection to fix suggestions and exportable reports
- Deployment options aligned to FedRAMP‑ready architectures
Multi‑Agent Orchestration (MAO)
1) Discovery Agent
Uses MCP Playwright to crawl properties, map interactive elements, model user journeys, and surface accessibility touchpoints rapidly.
2) Analysis Agent
Applies visual, structural, and behavioral checks to identify violations with contextual understanding (e.g., when images require alt text vs. decorative treatment).
3) Remediation Agent
Generates precise code‑level suggestions, timelines, and optionally opens PRs through CI/CD for teams to review and merge.
MCP Playwright Integration
Automates real user flows: keyboard navigation, form interactions, document downloads, and multi‑step processes. Validates color contrast, labels, roles, focus management, and announces async updates. Vision models assist with descriptive alt‑text generation for complex imagery common in public sector sites.
Privacy‑First Architecture
- Zero‑exposure design: processing contained within the browser environment
- Zero‑persistence: automatic data purging after session termination
- Isolated deployment: containerized execution with optional VNC for secure, air‑gapped workflows
- Defense‑in‑depth: encryption in transit/at rest, RBAC with MFA, and comprehensive audit trails
Note: Architectural capabilities are designed to support FedRAMP‑aligned deployments; agencies should validate requirements in their authorized environment.
Program Outcomes
- Faster testing cycles with consistent results and fewer false positives
- Actionable fixes mapped to WCAG criteria and policy controls
- Exportable executive summaries and audit‑ready evidence
- Stronger governance with collaboration, SLAs, and trend reporting
Implementation & ROI
- Months 1‑2: secure deployment, calibration, and workflow integration
- Months 3‑4: pilot on priority sites and measure results
- Months 5‑6: scale rollout and optimize automations
Typical organizations observe break‑even within the first quarter of usage and sustained reductions in cycle time and spend thereafter.
Next Steps
- Schedule a technical evaluation and demonstration
- Complete security and privacy review in your environment
- Select target properties and rollout plan
