This is why we are committed to completing this multi-year plan by respecting and following the 9 themes necessary for its full design.

S.T. Dupont's accessibility strategy is currently being structured. It aims to integrate accessibility from the earliest stages of digital projects, raise awareness among internal teams, and prioritize essential services for users. The initial steps consist of:

● Identifying the services concerned.
● Initiating compliance audits.
● Building a realistic and progressive multi-year action plan.

A digital accessibility contact person is being appointed. This contact person will play a key role in:

● Coordinating the approach.
● Supporting the teams.
● Regulatory and technical monitoring.

A dedicated mission statement will be defined in the coming year.

Resources mobilised at this stage are mainly internal (project managers, IT managers, communication). External support is envisioned for:

● Assisting with audits.
● Training teams.
● Advising on accessibility best practices.

The objective is to structure human and budgetary resources within the framework of the multi-year plan.

Integrating accessibility-related tasks into job descriptions is a medium-term objective. Discussions will begin in 2025 to identify the relevant roles (editors, developers, project managers, etc.) and incorporate accessibility concepts into job frameworks.

Initial digital accessibility awareness sessions are planned to start in 2025. The objective is to initiate the upskilling of teams with:

● An awareness of disability and digital barriers
● An introduction to RGAA.
● A presentation of the challenges and regulatory obligations.
● Practical modules targeted according to profiles (writer, developer, etc.).

The governance of the initiative is currently being defined. A cross-functional steering committee will be established, including relevant internal stakeholders (IT, communication, management, legal, etc.). This committee will oversee the progress of the action plan and ensure the consistency of initiatives.

Considering accessibility in public digital procurement is one of the priorities to be integrated in the coming months. Alignment work with the Purchasing Department is planned in order to:

● Review the tender specification templates.
● Introduce clauses compliant with EN 301 549 and RGAA.
● Raise awareness among teams regarding conformity assessment in digital services.

Future digital projects will progressively integrate accessibility requirements. The objective is to embed accessibility into:

● Specifications from the scoping phase.
● Tool and solution choices.
● Validation stages before going live.
● Support is planned for project managers to ensure accessibility is concretely and realistically considered.

The first annual action plan will be developed following an assessment scheduled for 2025. This assessment will evaluate:

● Actions carried out.
● Priorities for the following year.
It will be integrated into a continuous improvement approach, with transparent communication on progress.

New Projects and Compliance

● New Projects:

Accessibility is considered from the design stage of new projects.

● User Testing: Users with disabilities will be invited to participate in user testing when possible.

Corrective Actions and Improvements

● Corrective Measures: Audits identify non-compliant content, and a correction schedule is established to improve the user experience.

● Annual Action Plan: An action plan is defined each year to ensure continuous improvement of services.
● Progress Monitoring: An annual review is conducted to assess the state of accessibility and define priorities for the following year.

● Publication of the provisional accessibility statement: Completed
● Accesswidget installation: Smart accessibility interface: Scheduled
● Digital accessibility audit: Completed
● Full drafting of the multi-year plan: Scheduled
● Publication of the completed accessibility statement: Scheduled
