The  Colorado Statewide Internet Portal Authority (SIPA) has a new grant program for Colorado governments (state agencies, municipalities, counties & special districts) to help with accessibility compliance. SIPA partnered with Allyant to provide CommonLook Suite Licenses (has both CommonLook PDF and CommonLook Office) and CommonLook Training (Learning Management System & Webinar based) to enable your government to make existing PDFs compliant and/or generate compliant PDFs from Word and PowerPoint documents. 

SIPA and Allyant are working to distribute the remaining licenses. Licenses will be active through April 30, 2025. 

Grant Requirements:
  • You have an existing Eligible Government Entity Agreement with SIPA
  • You have or are willing to procure Adobe Acrobat PRO and/or MS Office Licenses that are needed to work with the CommonLook licenses
  • You are willing to provide quarterly updates to SIPA on the number of PDFs made compliant through this program
  • Licenses will be deployed to a designated administrator for your government to distribute to staff internally 
  • This program is only for Colorado governments. CommonLook licenses will not be awarded to staff at special district management companies.
If Awarded:
  • Licenses will be deployed with a renewal date of April 30, 2025
  • License recipients will have 45 days to deploy the CommonLook licenses they are allocated.
  • Unused licenses will be returned to the grant pool so that more Colorado governments can benefit from this program.

However, if additional licenses are available through this program, we may be able to increase the amount of licenses we deploy to your organization.
