Agence Adéquat
Paris, Île-de-France
Paris-based firm founded in 2013, Agence Adéquat designs websites that comply with the RGAA, mobile applications, accessible PDF documents and materials transcribed in FALC.
Based in Paris since 2013, Agence Adéquat is a firm specialising in digital accessibility and universal design. The team applies these principles to web interfaces, wayfinding signage and communication materials.
The agency delivers websites, mobile applications and PDF documents adapted for screen readers. For these files, it does not deliver any mark and does not guarantee their certification. It also handles the layout of content in easy-to-read and easy-to-understand format with illustrations.
Its interventions draw on the RGAA and W3C recommendations. The approach begins with needs-gathering workshops. The files delivered can be presented to e-accessibility or the French Federation of the Blind and Partially Sighted.
The firm works with public and cultural actors. It numbers among its references the Design City, the City of Paris and the National Library of France. Its clients also include the City of Lyon, Rennes Metropolis, the Deposits and Consignments Fund and Amnesty International France.

Audit
The agency examines website compliance on the basis of the RGAA. It also checks the accessibility level of PDF documents processed during its services.

Consulting and support
Missions begin with user-centred design workshops. For example, the agency guided the Human Rights Education team in rolling out materials in FALC format.
Accessible development
The agency develops websites aligned with the RGAA and compatible with W3C recommendations. It implements technical solutions ensuring content can be accessed by all users.
Inclusive design
The team designs the visual ergonomics of websites such as the Design City and brand identities based on universal design, such as La Butinière. Its advice covers fonts, contrast and templates.
Documents and PDF
The service makes reports, brochures or magazine PDFs compatible with screen readers and braille displays. From initial scoping to the finalised file, testing with users can supplement verification.
Easy-to-read (FALC)
It produces documents in easy-to-read and easy-to-understand format combining simplified text, illustrations and pictograms. Its work includes the educational project for Human Rights Education and a recipe book.
Mobile apps
The agency develops mobile applications for smartphones and tablets, designed according to the same digital accessibility principles as its web interfaces.
