TRISTAR Partners with Level Access to Improve Digital Accessibility
TRISTAR is proud to announce its partnership with Level Access, a leading digital accessibility consulting firm. This collaboration guarantees that TRISTAR's digital platforms fully adhere to the latest digital accessibility standards and regulations, making digital access a top priority in its service offerings. Through this partnership, TRISTAR is dedicated to ensuring that no user is left behind in the digital landscape.
As digital environments continue to evolve, end-to-end accessibility has never been more critical. Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) is essential for organizations aiming to offer equal access to their online resources. TRISTAR takes this responsibility seriously.
“Communication and inclusiveness are core values for TRISTAR,” said Tom Veale, TRISTAR President, “much of today's business communication occurs through digital channels. This partnership underscores our commitment to ensuring that everyone can engage with our digital services without barriers. We are excited to collaborate with Level Access to improve our compliance efforts and provide a more comprehensive experience for all our clients.”
Founded in 1999 by visionary engineers with disabilities, Level Access has a rich history in digital accessibility, pioneering the field even before laws like Section 508 and WCAG were established. Through this partnership, TRISTAR has received a thorough review of its current digital platforms, followed by the implementation of any necessary updates and continual monitoring to enhance accessibility.
“At Level Access, we’re committed to ensuring people with disabilities have equal access to the digital world,” said Spiro Papathanasakis, Co-Founder and Chief Strategy Officer at Level Access. “As states like Colorado lead the way in setting strong digital accessibility requirements, we’re proud to support TRISTAR in auditing, building, and maintaining inclusive digital experiences. Through our partnership, TRISTAR will leverage cutting-edge technology and expert guidance to provide all customers with access to essential services."
With the collaboration of TRISTAR and Level Access, we are excited about the promising future of enhanced accessibility across TRISTAR's digital platforms. By integrating advanced accessibility features that adhere to the latest standards, TRISTAR is investing in the creation of a more inclusive digital environment that empowers everyone to have a seamless experience with TRISTAR’s services.
While digital accessibility is not a new concept in the industry, with Level Access, we have access to additional resources to enhance our product portfolio and ensure ongoing compatibility. This is particularly important as we introduce new features to our existing products or launch a new one - Avinash Tilak, TRISTAR VP CTO.
