ADA Building Compliance Checklist

Review the ADA building compliance laws to understand the requirements and regulations that need to be followed. Consider how these laws impact the accessibility features in buildings and the importance of compliance. What resources or tools can be used for reviewing the laws?

Understand the local code requirements related to ADA building compliance. How do these requirements differ from the ADA laws? What is the impact of local code requirements on the accessibility features in buildings? Consider any potential challenges that may arise and their possible remedies.

Conduct a comprehensive survey of the building to identify and document all existing accessibility features. What is the purpose of this survey? How will it contribute to achieving ADA compliance? Identify any form fields or checklist items that will be used to record the accessibility features.

Analyze the results of the initial building survey to identify areas that do not meet ADA accessibility standards. What areas of the building require modifications or improvements? How will these non-compliant areas be addressed?

Develop a plan to address the non-compliant areas identified in the building survey. How will these areas be modified or improved to meet ADA standards? Consider the resources, budget, and potential challenges associated with implementing the remedy plan.

Create a budget for the modifications required to achieve ADA compliance. How will the budget be allocated to address the non-compliant areas? Consider any additional costs that may arise during the modification process. What are the options available in allocating the budget?

Reach out to ADA renovation contractors to gather estimates for the modification project. What information is required to provide accurate estimates? Consider any special instructions or requirements for obtaining estimates from the contractors.

Select an ADA renovation contractor based on the estimates and their qualifications. How will the contractor be chosen? What factors will be considered in the selection process? Once the contractor is chosen, schedule the start date for the modification project.

Regularly monitor the progress of the compliance modification project. What methods or tools will be used to track the project? How will the project be monitored for compliance with ADA standards? Consider any potential issues that may arise during the project and their solutions.

After the modifications are complete, conduct a follow-up survey to ensure that the building now meets ADA compliance standards. How will this re-survey be conducted? What criteria will be used to assess the compliance of the modified areas?

Thoroughly document all changes made to achieve ADA compliance and the associated costs. What information needs to be recorded? How will the documentation be organized and stored for easy reference? Consider any form fields or checklist items that will be used to document the changes and costs.

Submit any required documents or reports to the relevant authorities to demonstrate ADA compliance. What documents or reports need to be filed? How will they be submitted? Consider any specific requirements or instructions provided by the authorities.

Set up a schedule for regular follow-ups to ensure continued ADA compliance in the building. How often will these follow-ups be conducted? What aspects of ADA compliance will be checked during the follow-ups? Consider any potential challenges that may arise and their solutions.
