Download NowModernizing technology across state government has traditionally been slow, complex, and heavily governed by procurement rules. To remove these barriers, the Commonwealth of Virginia created COV RAMP, the Rapid Application Modernization Program, a framework that helps agencies adopt trusted IT products faster and with far less risk.
For agencies preparing for the 2026 ADA Title II rule and growing pressure to meet WCAG 2.2 AA, COV RAMP provides a clear, compliant path to procuring accessibility technology.
Recite Me is proud to be an approved COV RAMP vendor, making it easier than ever for Virginia agencies to adopt our accessibility solutions.
What is COV RAMP?
COV RAMP (Commonwealth of Virginia Rapid Application Modernization Program) is a procurement and risk-management initiative overseen by the Virginia Information Technology Agency (VITA).
Approved vendors appear on VITA’s public list of solutions that meet these standards, giving agencies confidence in both performance and governance.
Recite Me is listed under the COV RAMP Approved Vendor section.
Why COV RAMP Matters for State Agencies
COV RAMP exists to help agencies modernise digital services with less friction, less paperwork, and fewer delays.
Streamlined Procurement
Skip lengthy RFPs and move straight to adoption of vetted, approved technology.
Reduced administrative workload
Months of reviews and contract negotiations are replaced with a simplified, VITA-aligned process.
Faster deployment
Once approved, solutions can be rolled out quickly across departments and programs.
Trusted security and compliance
Vendors undergo vetting to meet VITA standards, reducing risk for government teams.
For accessibility initiatives, this means agencies can take concrete steps to meet WCAG, ADA, and digital inclusion requirements without getting stuck in procurement cycles.
How the COV RAMP Process Works
COV RAMP provides a clear, repeatable framework for evaluating and adopting cloud-based applications. The process includes:
1. Assessment Review
Vendors submit their security documentation, architecture diagrams, risk assessments, and SOC audits for VITA evaluation.
2. Active Oversight
Once approved, a product may enter Active Oversight, where VITA monitors performance, security, and compliance over time.
3. Procurement & Contracting
Agencies can purchase directly from approved vendors using standard cloud terms and VITA’s established risk-management framework.
4. Continuous Monitoring
VITA tracks SLAs, system performance, audits, and security posture to ensure ongoing compliance.
