Frequently Asked Questions

All the answers you’re looking for

Digital accessibility for SMEs may be subject to mandatory requirements depending on the country in which the organization operates, the type of products or services it provides and whether its activities fall within the scope of applicable accessibility legislation.

Within the European Union, certain products and services are covered by the European Accessibility Act and the corresponding national measures implementing the European framework.

Businesses should therefore assess which accessibility requirements apply to their specific activities rather than relying solely on company size or turnover.

In some circumstances, applicable legislation may provide exemptions or specific proportionality assessments. These conditions must always be evaluated according to the relevant national framework and the organization’s individual circumstances.

The treatment of microenterprises depends on the relevant legislation, the nature of the organization and the products or services it provides.

Certain accessibility frameworks may include exemptions for specific categories of microenterprises, particularly in relation to services.

Even when an organization is not subject to a specific mandatory requirement, adopting accessible digital practices can improve usability, expand its potential audience and create a more inclusive customer experience.

Yes. okACCEDO supports Small and Medium-sized Enterprises throughout their accessibility journey, including through custom projects designed for online sales platforms and e-commerce websites.

Thanks to our personalised consulting approach, we work with different organizations to improve the accessibility of their online stores, align them with applicable accessibility standards and make their services available to a wider audience.

Digital accessibility for businesses can expand a company’s potential market by making digital touchpoints easier to use for people who may otherwise experience navigation barriers.

Creating a more inclusive website means giving a broader range of users the opportunity to discover products, access information and complete online actions independently.

Many accessibility principles also complement good SEO practices. Clear content hierarchies, meaningful alternative text for images, properly structured pages and logical website architecture can make content easier for both users and search engines to understand.

okACCEDO can help identify common technical issues and provide an initial overview of potential barriers

For a more comprehensive assessment, okACCEDO combines automated checks with specialist manual reviews.

The result of our Accessibility Analysis is a detailed picture of the accessibility status of your digital touchpoints, together with practical information that can support subsequent remediation activities and alignment with current accessibility standards.

The first step is to carry out an Accessibility Analysis of the existing e-commerce platform.

okACCEDO can assess the current state of the website, identify accessibility barriers and establish priorities according to their impact on the user experience and applicable accessibility criteria.

Once the assessment has been completed, a remediation plan can be defined to address the main areas of the e-commerce experience, from navigation and content structure to forms, product information and purchasing processes.

For more complex projects, our specialists can work directly with the organization’s internal development, design and content teams, providing technical and consulting support throughout the accessibility process.

Yes. As part of a digital accessibility for SMEs programme, okACCEDO can provide both specialist consulting and dedicated training for internal teams.

Training helps employees understand the principles of digital accessibility, recognise common barriers and take accessibility into account when designing, developing and maintaining future digital projects.

This approach helps organizations go beyond individual remediation activities and build accessibility knowledge internally, making it easier to maintain accessible digital experiences over time.

okACCEDO provides a comprehensive range of digital accessibility solutions for SMEs.

Our services can begin with an Accessibility Analysis to assess the current condition of a website or other digital touchpoint against recognised accessibility criteria.

We can then support organizations in defining remediation activities and preparing the Accessibility Statement applicable to their business.

These services are complemented by two proprietary okACCEDO solutions: okDashboard, a platform designed to identify accessibility issues, review audits and documentation, assess compliance levels and manage digital accessibility attributes, and okWidget, a proprietary tool designed to automatically address around 70% of the most common accessibility issues that users may encounter while navigating a website.
