Softek Services offers comprehensive Section 508 remediation services to ensure your documents comply with Section 508 standards and WCAG 2.0 guidelines, making them accessible to individuals with disabilities. According to recent court rulings, inaccessible digital communications are barriers and in violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act. By ensuring Section 508 compliance, you can save you costly legal fees and avoid public relations issues.
We specialize in making the following types of documents fully accessible:
PDF documents undergo rigorous remediation to meet the highest accessibility standards. While a document might pass Adobe’s full accessibility check, it may still fall short and fail when evaluated by more stringent compliance tools. That’s where Softek Services steps in—we go above and beyond to ensure your PDFs are fully accessible by thoroughly reviewing and remediating key elements.
Pricing ranges from $5 to $30 per page depending on the file type, complexity, and length. Our team of highly skilled professionals will assess your documents and prepare a fixed-priced quote. Once work has been approved and completed, we will return your fully compliant documents. All work is guaranteed.
Softek Services also offers training and consultation services on 508 remediation. Consider taking our 1-day course on Making Files 508 Complaint. This instructor-led, hands-on course teaches the essential skills necessary to make Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Adobe PDF files compliant.
Remediation should not be the last step in your process – it should be the first. In addition to training, Softek Services can work with you to establish a remediation plan that helps ensure your initial templates, documents, style guide, etc. are compliant from the beginning to avoid costly remediation later. For example, we will make sure your team is using heading styles, compliant colors, non-merged table cells and identify other issues that are harder to fix later in the process.
Hourly consulting is $175 per hour, billed in 15-minute increments. Services can be provided at your office, virtually, or by e-mail. There is a 6-hour minimum fee if services are rendered at your location. We offer volume discounts for multiple-day projects. Please contact us if you would like to receive a quote or estimate for your specific 508 Compliance project.
