Information and Communications Co.,
LTD
Broadened
accessibility requirements in region
drive market opportunity
Nashua, NH - USA and Seoul, South
Korea – September 22, 2009 –
HiSoftware Inc. (www.hisoftware.com),
a leading provider of accessibility
software, services and managed
operation solutions that automate
organization’s web-sites for
compliance, today announced that it
has signed an exclusive distribution
agreement in the Republic of Korea
with Trust Line Information and
Communications Co., LTD (TLInC). The
agreement will allow TLInC to
distribute HiSoftware’s leading
content compliance solution,
HiSoftware Compliance Sheriff®
throughout South Korea, leveraging
the latest accessibility standards
and requirements within the region.
“TLInC is very pleased sign this
important distribution agreement
with HiSoftware, the leader in
accessibility and compliance
monitoring,” stated TLInC CEO, Mr.
Seungchul Kang. “With the renewed
commitment by the South Korean
government to accessibility, we
anticipate a strong demand for the
HiSoftware Compliance Sheriff
offering. We chose HiSoftware based
upon our significant research into
accessibility providers. We felt
HiSoftware was the strongest partner
in the market qualified to address
the growing demands of the Korean
marketplace. With the completion of
a fully translated Korean version of
Compliance Sheriff, TLInC can now
bring this world-leading solution
into the Korean marketplace.”
The distribution agreement
provides TLInC with the opportunity
to localize, market, distribute,
license, support and service the
HiSoftware Compliance Sheriff
product offerings throughout the
Republic of Korea. As part of a
government requirement that will
take place in stages over the next
three years, organizations within
Korea will be required to follow The
Korean Web Content Accessibility
Guideline 1.0 (KWCAG 1.0). This
standard outlines design principles
for creating accessible Web
contents. Although the main market
focus of the distribution agreement
is driven by accessibility
requirements, TLInC will be able to
distribute the entire current and
future HiSoftware Compliance Sheriff
product line of modules. These
additional modules extend the
solution to include content
compliance capabilities for Data
Privacy, Site Quality, Operational
Security, SEO and Data Tagging, in
addition to Accessibility.
HiSoftware President and CEO,
Kurt A. Mueffelmann, stated, “We are
pleased to welcome TLInC into the
rapidly growing partner network at
HiSoftware. With a tremendous market
opportunity on the Korean peninsula
for accessibility, we are looking to
a strong partner like TLInC to
leverage HiSoftware’s leading
compliance solutions across the
region. We trust TLInC will extend
HiSoftware’s commitment to helping
organizations make their
Web-presence accessible to all to
Web users across Korea.”
