Digital accessibility is an essential need in today’s world, where technology plays a crucial role in our lives. At Tech4access, we understand the importance of making digital content and platforms accessible to everyone. That is why we have developed the Service for Integrated digital Accessibility (SIA®), a solution that guarantees digital inclusion in four fundamental phases.
¿Can you ensure that all your digital content and platforms are accessible to all? The key lies in receiving high quality advice and expert guidance to initiate and carry out digital accessibility projects efficiently. Find out below how SIA® can transform your organisation.
What is the SIA®: System for Integrated digital Accessibility?
The SIA® or also called System for Integrated digital Accessibility is a solution implemented in four phases in a cyclical manner. This approach turns digital accessibility projects into a tangible reality, allowing companies to produce and maintain accessible digital environments with minimal effort.
The SIA® is not just a tool, but a comprehensive solution that begins and ends as an ongoing continuous improvement service. The SIA® process guides companies through four fundamental phases:
- Accessible development: integration accessibility from the outset with continuous reviews, specialised consultancy, and technical training for developers and designers.
- Initial consultancy and legal alignment: initial assessment and planning to ensure compliance with current legal regulations, such as Royal Decree 1112/2018 in Spain.
- Continuous improvement of digital accessibility: development of a customised digital accessibility plan and continuous monitoring to maintain accessibility in the long term.
- AA level certification: preparation for WCAG 2.2 level AA certification, which ensures that the platform complies with international accessibility standards.
In this way, the SIA®, through its four phases, facilitates the implementation of accessible digital environments, ensuring a continuous commitment to accessibility. It also allows for the constant improvement and maintenance of digital platforms, ensuring an inclusive experience for all users.
Reasons why the SIA® should be implemented
The System for Integrated digital Accessibility (SIA®) is designed to ensure that digital platforms are accessible to all users, regardless of their limitations.
This programme covers all stages of the process of improving the accessibility of websites and mobile applications, starting with an initial comprehensive assessment that identifies areas for improvement and establishes a customised action plan. The benefits of implementing SIA® in a company include:
- Accessibility certification: assistance in achieving AA level accessibility, a globally recognised standard, which ensures compliance with the best standards.
- Barrier removal: identification and removal of obstacles that impede access for users with disabilities, promoting an inclusive experience.
- Regulatory compliance: assists in compliance with current laws on digital accessibility, such as Royal Decree 193/2023 in Spain, ensuring that companies comply with relevant regulations.
- Expert advice: provision of specialised consultancy by professionals in digital accessibility, adapting solutions to the specific needs of the company’s sector.
- Comprehensive audits: conducting detailed manual audits to identify and correct accessibility issues, continuously improving the user experience.
- Constant technical support: availability of continuous technical support to resolve queries and problems, ensuring that the digital platforms remain accessible at all times.
SIA® is suitable for any type of company, regardless of size or sector. Whether it is a website or mobile app in operation or a project in the development phase, it provides the support needed to overcome digital accessibility challenges at every stage.
Ongoing assistance is provided to identify areas for improvement and guidance is given in the implementation of appropriate technical solutions. In addition, training is provided to staff so that they understand the importance of accessibility and know how to apply it effectively in their daily work.
In short, the SIA® acts as a driver of change, propelling businesses towards a more inclusive and accessible digital future.
