Business Case

Title:

• developing a web accessibility business case for your organization
• developing a web accessibility business case: social factors
• developing a web accessibility business case: technical factors

Drop "quantifying benefits" because:

1. can't make a clear case that benefits are relkated to accesisbilitym becausde you never only hange accessibility, always ,make additional improvemnebts
2. quantifying the benefits is a post impl;ementatiopn issues, not a precursor to undertaking the work (the time when the case is being developed)
3. not our core speciality
4. adding uncessesary work ontop of making the web accessibile
