Accessibility is not an option but the right thing to do. However, the problem is that most businesses have no idea where to start. A lot of them don't even know what accessibility is! Many of them are taking the easy route and asking their web designers for accessibility advice. Unfortunately, the truth is this: web designers are not accessibility specialists. It's important to find someone who knows about both design and technology in order to get the best result for your business.  

Read this Should your Development Vendor be your Accessibility Testing Vendor? 

Selecting the right accessibility vendor is a critical decision for any company looking to make their digital products compliant with the emerging regulations. The right website and digital accessibility vendor can help you identify the most problematic areas of your product and provide solutions to get you up to code.  

There are several accessibility vendors out there that have been around for a while and offer quality service and products. Ensuring that your digital products meet WCAG standards and Section 508 guidelines require expert vendors in this field. 

The right vendor can ensure that your products are fully accessible and also help protect your company from legal risks. While it is important to do some research on your own, there are also certain questions you can ask the vendor that will give you an idea of their capabilities: 

  1. How would you describe your company’s values and philosophy? 
  2. What is your process for evaluating and proposing solutions? 
  3. What methods do you use to assess accessibility?
  4. What is your experience in the industry?
  5. What is your typical timeline for getting back to clients after receiving a request for proposal?
  6. What services do you offer that are not listed on the website?

The digital accessibility vendor you select should not only provide an option for progress tracking and record keeping but also ensure that they can provide you a customized roadmap towards your accessibility needs.

]]> Covid-19 is surely changing how we look at Inclusion! We have seen the adoption of online technologies accelerated across the globe. On one side, this will make the transition for people with disabilities easier but on the other hand, is our technology and content accessible so that we can truly make an impact and be inclusive?

These are times where:

  1. We have to move fast but ensure that we don’t ignore digital accessibility.
  2. Budgets will be scarce, and we need to find ways to do more with less.
  3. Teams would be stretched to make it happen but might not always have the resources needed.

At BarrierBreak, we understand this and we also believe this is an opportunity to make a difference.

We are the leaders in offshore digital accessibility specializing in Accessibility Testing, VPAT Creation, Accessibility Consulting and Accessible Documents. BarrierBreak’s People First approach includes people with disabilities as a part of our testing process. Every team consists of people with disabilities that are trained accessibility testers and specialists.
