This matrix presents a high-level overview of the distribution of WCAG Success Criteria across the lifecycle, by defining which role in the cross-functional team should be assigned as:

  • the PRIMARY owner of at least one accessibility task (P) for any given Success Criterion,
  • a SECONDARY resource (S) supporting the owner of any given accessibility task, or
  • a CONTRIBUTOR (C) to the success of meeting said Success Criterion.
