Why Address Section 508?
Section 508 legislature, which became mandatory in June 2001, states that all hardware, software, and websites for all federal government agencies (?) be accessible to all persons with disabilities. Addressing these issues will resolve the revenue loss, potential legal action, and compliance risks created by inaccessible IT systems. This will transform accessibility from a liability into a competitive advantage for your federal sales teams.
However, trying to navigate solutions for this law is often frustrating and confusing. Completing the VPAT for federal procurement may bring more questions than answers. In assessing products in your organization you should work with a company that understands accessibility issues. In fact, any company that sells hardware or software to the federal government must comply with these regulations in order for their product to be procured.
QAI complies with Section 508. To meet our clients’ requirements, QAI has qualified, reliable partners with expertise based on years of experience in the access technology arena. They will work with you to create a plan for your company using an accessibility management platform (AMP). Ask us about our success stories.
