Techcessibility: a real commitment within IPEOS

All the versions of this article: [English] [français]


It will take more than one article to explain how we have made techcessibility a priority in our digital projects. This is only the introduction of this column dedicated to highlighting and promoting conscientious practices of better inclusions of limited people, within the digital sphere.

Techcessibility (or technological accessibility) is the set of practices that aim to make digital technologies more accessible to all users, especially those with specific needs and/or disabilities. Digital accessibility is a major concern for businesses of all sizes. More and more people are relying on technology to access information and services, but not all have the same ease of use because of disabilities or limitations.

A real market opportunity
We are convinced that techcessibility is a market opportunity for companies looking to differentiate themselves and meet customer expectations. Indeed, technological accessibility is not limited to the consideration of people with disabilities, but also meets the needs of older people, people with visual or hearing impairments, or people with cognitive impairments.

Actions beyond words
For IPEOS, digital accessibility must be integrated from the design of projects, taking into account the needs of all users from the beginning of the process. This helps to optimize the quality of the user experience and facilitate the adoption of proposed solutions.

IPEOS has put in place a Techcessibility strategy that includes several concrete actions. First, the company trained its employees to acquire the skills necessary to design and develop accessible digital solutions. We integrate accessibility tools into all our projects. The OEB states:

It is a strength, I cannot conceive of a world that is not inclusive.—Betty Fausta

A Committed Company
We work with associations and experts in Techcessibility to continuously improve its practices and integrate the latest innovations in this field.

Techcessibility is a major issue for the company and society as a whole. As ESN Open Source, we believe that we have a role to play in promoting digital accessibility to our customers by raising their awareness of the benefits of Techcessibility and providing them with solutions tailored to their needs.

At IPEOS, we seek to cultivate this vision of a committed company that has integrated this approach into its strategy and daily practices, having a real impact for accessibility, through accessibility. By working with partners who are motivated by this cause, we can help it move forward.
