The Accessibility Advantage: Building Trust, Equity, and Efficiency Across Public and Private Organizations
Learn why state, local, and education organizations are making accessibility a leadership priority, and how Accessibility On Demand™ turns every record into a compliant, equitable, and audit-ready asset.
Some documents pass through internal systems without issue, but when tested for accessibility, they do not hold up. They block access, miss federal standards, and quietly exclude people who rely on assistive technology.
Compliance is not about appearances. A document may look polished, but without proper tagging, navigation, and readable text, it fails to meet ADA and Section 508 standards. What seems complete can become a barrier once it reaches the public.
Across HR, legal, and records teams, content is created differently. HR may scan forms unreadable by screen readers. Communications may post PDFs without headings, alt text, or reading order. These issues often stay hidden until an audit or request brings them forward.
Accessibility cannot be treated as an afterthought. True compliance requires clear structure, verified formatting, and human validation. Every document must be readable, usable, and trusted by all users, including those who rely on assistive technology.

Why Accessibility Compliance Matters
Government agencies must meet ADA Title II and Section 508 requirements, which mandate that digital content and records are accessible to people with disabilities.
WCAG 2.2, while not law, is the technical standard most organizations use to meet these expectations. It ensures formatting, usability, and compatibility with assistive tools.
Common failures include:
• PDFs without readable text or tag structure
• Forms missing alt text, labels, or clear reading order
• No documentation of accessibility checks
These issues limit access and increase legal risk. Government is required to lead, but any organization benefits from aligning with these standards. Accessible systems improve service, support audits, and lower remediation costs.
What Accessibility On Demand™ Delivers
Accessibility On Demand (AoD) is built to help agencies fix accessibility issues with speed and accuracy. It combines automation with expert validation to produce certified accessible files.
Key features include:
• OCR and smart tagging for scanned and digital PDFs
• Flexible service levels to meet deadlines and budgets
• WCAG 2.2, PDF/UA, and Section 508 alignment
• Audit-ready reports for compliance documentation
• Transparent pricing starting at $0.30 per page
Every document processed through AOD is returned ready for real-world use, including by people who rely on screen readers and other assistive technologies.
A North Carolina government agency was falling behind on public records requests. Dozens of documents were posted online in PDF format, but none were compliant with ADA or Section 508 standards. Community members using assistive technology reported errors, broken reading order, and unreadable forms.
They needed more than basic remediation. They needed a solution that would ensure all documents were accessible, traceable, and audit-ready.
Using Accessibility On Demand, we delivered:
• Tagged and structured files readable by screen readers
• Verified alignment with WCAG 2.2 and PDF/UA standards
• Metadata and titles optimized for clarity and usability
• Audit documentation to support compliance tracking
Now, when an accessibility request comes in, the agency can respond immediately with a certified accessible file. Missed deadlines, manual workarounds, and compliance gaps have been eliminated.
