How can our maturity model help you?
- Strategic Planning: The DAMM is a great framework for creating a digital accessibility strategy. The process helps you identify progress, set clear objectives, agree actions, and create a shared roadmap for improvement.
- Training and Awareness: Working together to use the DAMM is a great way to raise awareness about digital accessibility within any organisation.
- Compliance and Legal Requirements: Maintaining accessibility compliance helps avoid legal issues as part of your business priorities.
- Benchmarking and Evaluation: The DAMM can evaluate your current level of digital accessibility and benchmark your progress against maturity. Understand where you are now and identify areas for improvement
