# Digital accessibility assessment and support services for the Federal Employment Agency

The Federal Employment Agency seeks a four-year service framework with an approximate volume of 9,600 person-days, including a termination option. The work supports its Usability Accessibility Center in assessing accessibility of existing and new IT applications and digital documents, correcting identified barriers and integrating accessibility into software development from the outset. The framework is intended for the three most economically advantageous tenderers and covers work-based and fixed-price services plus fixed-price assessment call-offs. The notice references accessibility obligations under German law. Submission date: 26 October 2026; no time is stated in the TED date field.
