The VPAT (Voluntary Product Accessibility Template) is the standard federal format for reporting how a system conforms to accessibility standards — required by CDRL A006 before the ATO package can be submitted. Testing is performed by P. Duvall's team using both automated scanning and manual assistive-technology testing.
