Request for Information
U.S. Department of Labor (DOL), Office of the Senior Procurement Executive (OSPE), Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration and Management (OASAM), Washington, DC is seeking information on behalf of the Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) for tools to improve the Department-s compliance with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act (29 U.S.C. § 794d).

Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act (29 U.S.C. § 794d) requires that all Information and Communication Technology (ICT) that is procured, developed, used or maintained by the federal government be accessible to and usable by people with disabilities. The Section 508 Program Office within OCIO is charged with enabling ICT accessibility and managing compliance with Section 508 for the Department.
DOL currently lacks a robust, methodical capability for capturing Section 508 conformance status or accessibility risk across its digital properties. DOL is considering addressing this gap by providing DOL personnel — including developers, quality assurance testers, and the Section 508 Program Office — with the tools, guidance, and data necessary to identify, prioritize, and remediate accessibility defects independently and systematically.
