Web Accessibility


We are committed to providing access to our web pages for individuals with disabilities, both members of the public and Federal employees.

To meet this commitment, we will comply with the requirements of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act Amendments of 1998 (29 U.S.C. 794). Section 508 requires that individuals with disabilities, who are members of the public seeking information or services from us, have access to and use of information and data that is comparable to that provided to the public who are not individuals with disabilities, unless an undue burden would be imposed on us. Section 508 also requires us to ensure that Federal employees with disabilities have access to and use of information and data that is comparable to the access to and use of information and data by Federal employees who are not individuals with disabilities, unless an undue burden would be imposed on us.

PDF
Users can obtain information regarding the accessibility of Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files from the Access Adobe website.

VPAT
We used the Government Product Accessibility Template (GPAT) to build our Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) Report (information concerning the creation of a VPAT is found at: https://www.section508.gov/sell/vpat). The ASA (FM&C) Website Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT) in a 508 compliant PDF document describes how the ASA (FM&C) website addresses the requirements of Section 508 Standards. A VPAT is a standardized form developed by the Information Technology Industry Council to show how a software product meets key regulations of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act. The act requires all agencies and departments of the U.S. federal government to make electronic information and technology accessible to federal employees and members of the public with disabilities.

508 Compliance
We use the latest information, gathered from http://section508.gov, the General Services Administration (GSA), and the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) web sites to build and deliver 508-compliant products and services. The guidance, tutorials, compilation of tools from private industry and Government agencies, and checklists found on these web sites, shown below, provide the methods used by our staff to identify and address potential Section 508 issues early in the development lifecycle, facilitating timely delivery of compliant products.

This DoD website has undergone a redesign to ensure that it was meeting or exceeded the requirements of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act Amendments of 1998. Many of our pages meet the standard and we are continually working to make all pages accessible. If you find that one of the Army Financial Management & Comptroller page's is not accessible, please send an email to usarmy.pentagon.hqda-asa-fm.list.webmaster-mailbox@army.mil with the subject "AFM Contact Us".
