Digital accessibility is now mandatory for many companies. Our Quick Scan identifies critical accessibility blockers in your digital applications.

Now that the Accessebility Improvement Act (BFSG) has come into force, numerous companies are obliged to make their digital products and services accessible. Particularly affected: Banks and insurance companies, e-commerce companies, companies that conclude contracts online, operators of customer portals and providers of digital services. Non-compliance could result in fines or the discontinuation of the service. Are you facing these challenges?

  • Do you know whether and which of your systems are affected?
  • Are your digital applications BFSG-compliant?
  • Are you struggling with unclear accessibility requirements?
  • Do you need to quickly assess options for action?

FAQ

Is my company and my digital offering affected by the BFSG?

The BFSG applies to companies with certain digital products and services. This applies in particular to companies with more than 9 employees and an annual turnover of 2 million euros and applications that can be used to conclude digital contracts. Please contact us for an initial assessment.

How long does a Quick Scan take?

The duration depends on the scope of the digital offers to be analysed. As a rule, the analysis takes 1 week.

What types of applications do you test?

We test all applications that are based on web technologies. This also applies to applications developed with Electron or Ionic. We do not test hardware products and terminals such as ticket counters or native mobile Android or iOS apps.

Do we have to disclose the source code?

Not necessarily for the quick scan of certain applications. For in-depth analyses and the implementation of accessibility measures, an insight into selected code areas is of course necessary. We naturally sign a confidentiality agreement and are also certified in accordance with ISO/IEC 27001:2022.

How specific are the recommendations for action?

Our recommendations are deliberately designed to be practical and realisable. You will receive concrete proposals for measures to achieve the legal requirements with clear prioritisation.

Can we also be supported with the implementation after the Quick Scan?

Yes, we offer to implement the recommendations on request, especially if the challenges are more complex or the link to legacy systems requires our expertise. We have extensive experience with complex and problematic systems. We also find solutions for difficult technical environments.

Can you also train our developers?

Absolutely. We advise your internal teams or external service providers on the implementation of measures and support you in anchoring knowledge about accessible software in your company in the long term.

Are your products affected by the BFSG? And if so, where do you stand in terms of accessibility?

The BFSG is already in effect. Get clarity about your situation and the next steps.
