| 1.4.2 | Audio Control | A | Not Applicable | |
| 1.4.3 | Contrast (Minimum) | AA | Supports | |
| 1.4.4 | Resize text | AA | Supports | |
| 1.4.5 | Images of Text | AA | Supports | |
| 1.4.10 | Reflow | AA | Not Evaluated | |
| 1.4.11 | Non-Text Contrast | AA | Not Evaluated | |
| 1.4.12 | Text Spacing | AA | Not Evaluated | |
| 1.4.13 | Content on Hover or Focus | AA | Not Evaluated | |
| 2.1.1 | Keyboard | A | Supports | |
| 2.1.2 | No Keyboard Trap | A | Supports | |
| 2.1.4 | Character Key Shortcuts | A | Not Evaluated | |
| 2.2.1 | Timing Adjustable | A | Not Applicable | |
| 2.2.2 | Pause, Stop, Hide | A | Not Applicable | |
| 2.3.1 | Three Flashes or Below Threshold | A | Supports | |
| 2.4.1 | Bypass Blocks | A | Partially Supports | No mechanism has been provided to skip the repetitive header navigation. Since all the pages have similar header section navigational links a hidden link should be provided before the repetitive content which will redirect the keyboard only user to the main content of the page skipping the repetitive links. |
| 2.4.2 | Page Titled | A | Supports | |
| 2.4.3 | Focus Order | A | Partially Supports | Keyboard focus order is not sequential in the header section. Ideal focus order should move from 'Search' element then to 'More' element, when keyboard tapping. |
| 2.4.4 | Link Purpose (In Context) | A | Supports | |
| 2.4.5 | Multiple Ways | AA | Supports | |
| 2.4.6 | Headings and Labels | AA | Partially Supports | Headings elements in header and footer section are not aligned with header tags programmatically. |
| 2.4.7 | Focus Visible | AA | Partially Supports | Focus indicator is not visible on 'Search' on header section, 'SQL Server' and other elements when keyboard tabbing. |
| 2.5.1 | Pointer Gestures | A | Not Evaluated | |
| 2.5.2 | Pointer Cancellation | A | Not Evaluated | |
| 2.5.3 | Label in Name | A | Not Evaluated | |
| 2.5.4 | Motion Actuation | A | Not Evaluated | |
| 3.1.1 | Language of Page | A | Supports | |
| 3.1.2 | Language of Parts | AA | Supports | |
| 3.2.1 | On Focus | A | Partially Supports | Focus is moving to the background elements on header section when keyboard tabbing. Ideally on the elements which are active on the screen should receive focus. |
| 3.2.2 | On Input | A | Supports | |
| 3.2.3 | Consistent Navigation | AA | Supports | |
| 3.2.4 | Consistent Identification | AA | Supports | |
| 3.3.1 | Error Identification | A | Supports | |
| 3.3.2 | Labels or Instructions | A | Supports | |
| 3.3.3 | Error Suggestion | AA | Supports | |
| 3.3.4 | Error Prevention (Legal, Financial, Data) | AA | Not Applicable | |
| 4.1.1 | Parsing | A | Partially Supports | Screen reader users would be impacted as the header navigational link elements have duplicate values for their id attributes. Assistive technologies (AT's) depending on id values to identify unique elements would be impacted. |
| 4.1.2 | Name, Role, Value | A | Partially Supports | Screen reader won’t be able to identify the current state of the element (Checked/Unchecked-Selected/Unselected-Expanded/Collapsed) to interact with the elements. |
| 4.1.3 | Status Messages | AA | Not Evaluated |
