R895-14-5. Accessibility for Existing Legacy Information Systems used by Executive Branch Agencies  


Latest version.
  •   Agencies shall ensure that plans are developed to address IT accessibility issues once identified in existing systems, subject to available funding. Corrective actions in project plans, procurement of more accessible IT, and providing alternate means of access to the IT product or service are examples of possible remediation. Such changes are voluntary and are not mandated by this rule.

      (1) Agency Discretion.

      Agencies will make reasonable efforts to comply with accessibility guidelines for legacy information systems and at minimum, must provide individuals with disabilities with an alternative method of access that allows the individual to use the hardware and software associated with the legacy information system.
