What is staff augmentation — a comprehensive overview
Staff augmentation is a methodology that allows you to expand your team quickly by hiring temporary employees to optimize business processes.
Most of our projects have adopted containerization and cloud technologies. But in reality, many legacy systems still run on bare-metal infrastructure. Sometimes because of strict security requirements, specific dependencies, or simply the cost and risk of migration. Now, we're talking about IIS (Internet Information Services) - Microsoft's web server that is still widely used in corporate environments. The problem is that managing such systems often requires direct server access, which creates a barrier for developers and increases operational complexity.
Our mission goes beyond building features: it’s about creating technology that works smoothly for every person. Digital accessibility is not simply a compliance requirement; it forms the foundation of high-quality, inclusive user experience (UX) and reliable product design. To support this commitment, we’ve developed an internal, cross-disciplinary checklist. It’s tailored for UX Designers, Developers, and QA Specialists, offering a clear roadmap for removing barriers before any release.
For organizations that create or support Electronic and Information Technology (EIT), accessibility is not something that can be added at the end of a project. It needs to be part of how teams design, build, and maintain digital products. Although Section 508 is often associated only with U.S. federal agencies, its practical influence is far wider. The standard has become a dependable reference point for digital inclusion and a valuable guide for any company focused on quality and long-term user trust.
This article explains what Section 508 covers and turns its principles into a clear, text-based checklist your engineering, design, and QA teams can use to develop accessible products with confidence.
Digital products are becoming more complex, and accessibility standards must evolve with them. The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) remain the main reference for creating inclusive online experiences. Today, WCAG 2.2 is the official and legally recognized standard. The upcoming WCAG 3.0, known as the Silver project, introduces a broader and more flexible approach that focuses on real user outcomes.
Creating accessible digital products is not just a legal requirement, it is good design. A web accessibility audit helps ensure that everyone, including users with access needs, can use your website or app with ease. It checks how well your product meets the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, the global standard for inclusive digital experiences.
