Accessibility Evaluation and
Remediation

In the digital age, inclusivity and accessibility are paramount. At MEPS, we understand that government agencies must ensure that their online platforms are accessible to all citizens, regardless of their abilities or disabilities. Our Accessibility Evaluation and Remediation services are designed to help your agency create a digital environment that is both inclusive and compliant with accessibility standards.

The Importance of Digital Accessibility

• Equitable Access: A digitally inclusive platform ensures that all citizens have equal access to government information, services, and resources, regardless of disabilities.
• Legal Compliance: Accessibility is not only a moral imperative but also a legal requirement. Non-compliance with accessibility standards can lead to legal challenges and reputational damage.

Our Approach to Accessibility Evaluation

• Alt Text and Descriptions: We ensure that all images and multimedia content have proper alt text and descriptions, making them accessible to screen readers and assistive technologies.
• Keyboard Navigation: Our experts implement keyboard-friendly navigation and interactions, enabling users who rely on keyboard navigation or other assistive devices to access content easily.
• Captioning and Transcriptions: We provide captioning for videos and transcriptions for audio content, making multimedia content accessible to individuals with hearing impairments.
• Semantic HTML: Our remediation includes optimizing HTML structure with semantic elements, enhancing the experience for screen readers and assistive technologies.
• Forms and Interactive Elements: We enhance form fields and interactive elements to ensure they can be navigated and completed by all users, regardless of disabilities.
