Elevate your digital experience for all users and ensure those with disabilities are not left behind.
As an IT Consultancy with over 20 years of experience in a broad range of markets, we understand the complexities of developing accessible digital solutions. Our team stays current on the ever-evolving Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) (www.w3.org)— the international standards for digital accessibility—and the implications of the Harmonized European Standard (EN 301 549) (www.etsi.org), which incorporates WCAG2.1. We translate this expertise into actionable solutions, offering a comprehensive suite of digital accessibility services.
Accessibility services
Expert guidance: Our team simplifies digital accessibility requirements and guides your team to clarity and effective implementation.
Comprehensive solutions: From audits to implementation and training, our services cover every aspect of making your digital assets accessible.
Collaborative strategies with personalized results: We partner with you to create customized solutions that address your unique challenges and deliver measurable success.
Web and app accessibility
Gain clarity on the technical implications of web and app accessibility, demystify legal non-compliance, and receive the actionable support you need for a barrier-free future.
Accessibility Audit Reports
A thorough examination of your digital assets against WCAG standards. We perform an initial scan with automated digital accessibility tools and gather feedback from actual users with disabilities. This is documented and delivered to provide clear insights into current web and app accessibility standings and areas for improvement.
Customized Roadmap
Based on the audit results, we develop a plan to adapt your websites and applications. This includes techniques to improve and maintain digital accessibility, such as:
• clear content structure for assistive technologies (semantic HTML)
• inclusion of ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) roles and attributes• alternative texts for images
• predictable keyboard navigation and focus management
• accessible forms
• color contrast and visual clarity
• use of multimedia alternatives
Technical Implementation
Expert advice and hands-on support in applying the recommended changes, ensuring effective remediation of accessibility barriers. This includes:
• Code modifications: We'll work with your developers to make the necessary code changes to ensure your website or application meets accessibility standards.
• Content revisions: Our team can also assist with revising website content to improve clarity and structure, making it easier for everyone to understand.
• Accessibility testing: We utilize a combination of automated and manual testing procedures to ensure all accessibility issues are identified and addressed.
Continuous Integration & Delivery (CI/CD) Integration
We can also integrate automated accessibility testing into your existing CI/CD pipelines. This allows for early detection and correction of accessibility issues during development, leading to the following:
• Faster development cycles: By catching web and app accessibility issues early, you can avoid costly reworks later in the process.
• Reduced costs: Proactive digital accessibility testing is more efficient and cost-effective than fixing issues after launch.
• Future-proof solutions: Integrating accessibility into your development process helps ensure your applications remain accessible as technologies evolve.
Training & Awareness
Professional training for your employees to raise awareness of accessibility and ensure your teams can create and maintain accessible content. This includes training on how to use accessible design principles and tools and how to integrate accessibility into the development process.
Continuous Monitoring & Maintenance
Ongoing monitoring and maintenance of your websites and applications to ensure they continue to meet changing accessibility standards. We conduct regular audits and adjust your digital assets if necessary.
Stay compliant
Gain a comprehensive understanding of how your digital assets stack against WCAG and mandated European standards. We help ensure your digital presence meets accessibility standards and regulations to minimize legal risks and commit to Inclusive Design.
Reach a wider audience
Accessible websites and applications are effectively more usable. Inclusive design opens new doors into vast markets for people with disabilities or varying technical skills. We can give you actionable support to the required level to implement meaningful changes.
Elevate user experience
Empower your team to own the topic of accessibility. We help you establish accessible design principles to create smoother, more intuitive experiences for all users, regardless of their abilities. Doing this will translate to higher user satisfaction and potential brand loyalty.
