Audit Inaccessibility Risks
An Audit helps your organization avoid the lost revenues, punitive damages, and negative brand impacts that can result from inaccessible IT systems. In addition, Audits prepare your IT systems for accessibility certification by the National Federation of the Blind, an established method to reduce accessibility risk and create a competitive advantage. Audits are beneficial for any organization wishing to maintain accessible IT systems. For example:
- Hardware and software manufacturers selling IT systems to public sector markets are mandated by the U.S. Federal government to develop accessible products. An Audit provides the necessary analysis and documentation of your organization's accessibility status to secure public sector sales.
- Public sector organizations including U.S. Federal government agencies are required by laws such as Section 508 to maintain accessible IT systems. Audits ensure that your organization meets these requirements.
- E-businesses, including Financial Services companies, risk lost revenue and anti-discriminatory litigation for maintaining inaccessible IT systems. These risks are minimized by regularly scheduled Audits.
