Learn our process
Following the conclusion of the contract, our auditor colleague arranges an audit appointment with the designated contact person of the location/property.
The assessment takes approx. 2-6 hours. One colleague on your behalf is required to accompany our auditor to answer any question arising on the spot. During the assessment, we examine the external environment of the site (public areas, parking places, entrances, etc.) as well as the internal (spaces accessible to customers, guests, eg. reception, elevator, etc.) We document the dimensions of the above and take photos.
Following the assessment, we process the data and prepare an audit report that describes the conditions encountered during the site visit. The audit report includes the property’s Access4you classification (not eligible, certified place, bronze, silver, gold levels) and suggestions for improvements to achieve the certified place level or higher category.
After the audit took place we issue the invoice of the audit and an invoice of the trademark fee.
We provide a detailed audit report, our comprehensive expert development proposals for a better accessibility rating and the certification of completion.
We provide your location profile with detailed and reliable accessibility information and a Marketing information pack to help the successful communication of your Access4you certification.
The invoice of the second and third year certification mark fees will be issued annually, ensuring the continuous availability of your location profile in the Acccess4you database.
"Shopping malls are transforming into community hubs where every visit is an experience to remember. When a shopping centre earns our certificate, it signifies more than just accessibility or a powerful branding advantage; it’s about creating an environment where everyone leaves with a smile and looks forward to returning. I believe that’s the true power of accessibility."
