Good communication is accessible.
Good design is accessible.
Good technology is accessible.
What we do
Federal law and regulations require governments to produce accessible information and communication technology (ICT). Practically this means that individuals with disabilities must have comparable access to all of a government entity’s digital content. This includes webpages, PDFs, documents, and spreadsheets, among others.
These accessibility requirements may seem overwhelming or burdensome, but they don’t have to be. Good communication is accessible, good design is accessible, and good technology is accessible.
Your entire community deserves access to your information, and M3 Access Group can help you achieve that.
Remediation
We take your new or archival documents, spreadsheets, PDFs, and slide decks and make them meet accessibility standards.
Testing
A certified Trusted Tester will test your website against accessibility standards and prepare a comprehensive report detailing any findings. Testing can be done on a deployed version or iterative during the development lifecycle.
Technical Assistance
We train your team on the importance of accessibility and how to incorporate standards during drafting and design. We will look at your systems and standard products and help transform them to better meet accessibility standards.
Who we are
M3 Access Group works with you to ensure that your digital products meet the highest accessibility standards. We are expert in understanding and implementing Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act’s standards for technology, and we also understand how to transform bureaucratic systems and the people who run them to better serve a deserving public.
