HiSoftware’s Accessibility Consulting
Practices (ACP) offer a compelling value for our customers.
Better
The HiSoftware ACP team includes the
best legal and policy expertise in the industry. We have
been invited by corporations, foreign governments, IT trade
associations, and even Congress to advise them on different
IT accessibility laws. We have applied that knowledge to
help simplify confusing legal and regulatory requirements
for our customers and make sure that their programs run
efficiently and with clear missions. Our ACP team also
includes testers and developers who have focused their
careers on accessibility, have led programs at major
software companies and have developed some of the key
accessibility architectures today.
Faster
With HiSoftware’s Accessibility
Consulting Practices, your organization can get up to speed
quicker and avoid time-wasting mistakes down the road. Our
ACP team knows how to work with our customers’ processes and
not against them. We know how to find collaborative
“win-win” solutions and foster buy-in and ownership. We also
have the technical expertise to avoid bottlenecks.
Cost Effective
Avoiding costly mistakes and finding the
most efficient ways to get things done all adds up to huge
cost savings for our customers. Leveraging our expertise
also helps keep your people doing what they do best instead
of trying to summit the steep learning curve of IT
accessibility. Our ACP team can provide as little or as much
support as you need to help you succeed and maintain your
accessibility program.

experience. In fact, we’ve been the vendor of choice for
other accessibility issues, such as telecommunications
and architectural barrier removal.
