Obtaining & Maintaining Compliance

Without constant monitoring it is nearly impossible to keep any website in compliance with the American's with Disabilities Act (ADA).  Tools like Siteimprove (a high-powered accessibility tool) is used to improve accessibility compliance.  These types of tools typically catch the majority of accessibility issues while the remaining issues  cannot be checked automatically but requires a manual inspection to determine if each item lives up to the success criteria.  Siteimprove provides the web enterprise group and our users with the methods to obtain and maintain ADA compliance. 

How Does Siteimprove Measure Accessibility?

Siteimprove's dashboard provides a snapshot of a websites' Accessibility issues broken down into A and AA levels of compliance. AAA compliance is not mandated by the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) and the United States Access Board.
