Did you know that like web content, mobile apps and mobile web content are also covered by digital accessibility laws and standards such as the ADA, CVAA, Section 508 and WCAG?

That's why SSB BART Group partnered with IBM® to offer AMP for Mobile, the automated testing engine for native mobile applications and mobile web content. Seamlessly integrated within SSB’s Accessibility Management Platform (AMP), AMP for Mobile now adds the ability to perform automated testing of mobile systems to AMP’s turnkey solution for managing all facets of an organization’s digital accessibility initiative.
