Audit Process

A full BFSG audit runs in three phases:

  1. 1

    Automated Scan

    1–2 hours

    Axe-core, Lighthouse and WAVE check all WCAG 2.1 AA technical criteria. Detects approx. 30–40% of all issues: missing alt texts, color contrast violations, missing form labels, page language, heading hierarchy.

  2. 2

    Manual Testing

    4–8 hours

    Keyboard navigation, screen reader testing (NVDA/VoiceOver), zoom test at 200% and 400%, cognitive test for understandability. The remaining 60–70% of issues that no automated tool detects.

  3. 3

    Report & Conformity Declaration

    2–3 hours

    Prioritized issue list (critical / medium / minor), fix instructions for each problem, effort estimate. Optional: conformity declaration per BFSG §16 as legal proof.
