Planning a Supervised Review of Tactile Mockups
A supervised tactile mockup review should have a clear scope and qualified oversight. It can gather useful project observations, but it should not be presented as evidence of user testing that never took place or as a substitute for required design assessment.
Selection considerations
Define the questions the review is intended to address with the responsible team. Use the actual proposed components and adjoining floor finishes in an appropriate controlled setting. Keep participants' access needs and the review arrangements within the team's agreed procedure.
Record observations accurately and distinguish them from formal compliance decisions. A sample photograph shows the mockup, not the outcome of a consultation. Do not infer universal usability from one person's response or claim an approval beyond the documented review.
Have the responsible designer resolve the observations and record any accepted changes. Retain the reviewed component codes, layout and scope. Reassess relevant changes before installation so the project does not apply a limited sample review to a different route arrangement.
Before you specify or order
- Define the review questions and scope
- Use the actual proposed components
- Record observations without invented outcomes
- Retain the responsible design decision

Common question
Does one mockup discussion certify a tactile route?
No. It provides observations within its recorded scope; the applicable qualified design assessment and approvals remain necessary.
