    Ensure the accessibility of your digital service

    An accessible online service responds to the needs of diverse users and offers its content in an easily approachable form, regardless of the individual characteristics of users. The Act on the Provision of Digital Services obliges operators in different sectors to offer accessible online services and mobile applications.

    Accessibility requirements should be taken into account in good time and at the correct stages of service development, from procurement and definition to implementation.

    Is your digital service accessible?

    Our research team of over 20 people studies, evaluates, tests and trains on accessibility and implements accessible digital services. Accessibility enables everyone to easily use your online service regardless of their functional limitations, thus improving your company’s competitive edge.

    Accessibility assessment in procurement

    Accessibility can be included as a quality element in the tendering stage of a system or service. Typically, we take part in the preparation of tender materials and in accessibility auditing after the bids have been made.

    Eficode helped us build a shared understanding of what the Metsa.fi website should be like to make sure that it joins the Metsähallitus brand and objectives to user needs. Eficode also coached us on the accessibility of our online services.
