The accessibility of Fortes Change Cloud
The accessibility statement
Fortes Change Cloud has been providing software solutions to large enterprise and government organizations for 25 years. Government organizations are required by the Government Digital Accessibility Decree to prepare an accessibility statement. All government websites and apps including content are covered by this law. This includes intranets, extranets and cloud applications. Because Fortes Change Cloud is part of this, we offer insight into our accessibility.
Accessibility research
In early 2026, we had a baseline assessment conducted. The areas for improvement identified in that assessment have been incorporated into our plan.
In September 2026, the Accessibility Fortes Foundation assessed Change Cloud based on WCAG 2.2 Level AA. The assessment consists of two sub-assessments that together provide a complete picture:
- Content sub-study: This study assessed the success criteria related to content, such as text alternatives, contrast, headings, and labels.
- Technical sub-study: This study evaluated the success criteria related to technical functionality, such as keyboard operation and compatibility with assistive software.
Based on both assessments, Fortes Change Cloud has been assigned a “partially compliant” status (status B): some of the requirements of WCAG 2.2 Level AA have not yet been met. The reports detail the findings for each success criterion.
Fortes will address the findings in the software and track progress as part of the regular development schedule. In mid-2027, we will conduct a re-evaluation to verify that the findings have been resolved.
The September 2026 research reports are valid for three years, through September 2029. We update this statement at least once a year. The next update will be no later than September 2027.
Our accessibility ambition
We aim for level AA within the WCAG2.1 standard. That is, Fortes Change Cloud meets all requirements for observability, operability, understandability and robustness with the level A and AA.
In the meantime, do you have questions or suggestions for our accessibility? If so, please get in touch via the contact page.
