1 About the Voluntary Product Accessibility Template

1.1 Purpose

CGI Federal is dedicated to providing solutions that are accessible to people with disabilities. Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act requires federal agencies to provide disabled employees and members of the public access to electronic and information technology that is comparable to the access available to others.

CGI Federal provides this Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) to clarify support for accessibility criteria and to assist Federal contracting officials (or other buyers) in making assessments regarding products and services.

1.2 Document Structure

Section 2.1 lists which application and version to which this VPAT applies. The table in section 2.2 of the VPAT provides a summary view of the Section 508 subsections. The tables in subsequent sections provide more detailed views of each subsection.

Each table contains three columns. In the summary table, the first column describes the subsections of subparts B and C of the Section 508 Standards; in the detail tables, the first column contains the lettered paragraphs of the subsections. The second column describes the supporting features of the product using one or more of the following recommended phrases: Supports, Supports with Exceptions, Supports through Equivalent Facilitation, Supports when Combined with Compatible AT, Does Not Support, Not Applicable, and Not Applicable – Fundamental Alteration Exception Applies. The third column contains examples from the application as well as any notes or clarifications regarding the product or interpretation.
