HiSoftware & Content and Code Announce New Partnership
Partnership to extend Microsoft SharePoint Accessibility to meet Compliance Requirements in EU
Nashua, NH – May 19, 2008 –
HiSoftware (www.hisoftware.com),
a leading provider of software,
services and managed operation
solutions that monitor and optimize
Web content, quality and regulatory
compliance, today announced that
Content and Code, a Microsoft Gold
Certified Partner specializing in
building solutions based on
Microsoft Office SharePoint Server
2007 (SharePoint), has partnered
with HiSoftware. As a HiSoftware
Technology Business Partner, Content
and Code is authorized to provide
distribution and implementation
services around HiSoftware’s product
line for SharePoint, enabling
SharePoint users to address Web
Governance directives focused on
accessibility (WCAG), privacy, site
quality, and organizational
standards.
Tim Wallis, CEO of Content and Code
said, “We are excited to partner
with HiSoftware. Accessibility is
mandatory for many organizations,
allowing access to the web for all.
Our MOSS 2007 accessibility
framework allows sites to be built
rapidly. Our partnership with
HiSoftware will permit our customers
to further benefit by enhanced
end-to-end accessibility compliance
and governance.”
The Content and Code partnership
with HiSoftware will help entities
extend accessibility within
SharePoint, as well as help to meet
the strict compliance requirements
enforced through the Disability
Discrimination Act in the United
Kingdom. HiSoftware’s Compliance
Sheriff™ for SharePoint combined
with Content and Code’s expertise in
accessible development within the
SharePoint Platform provides an
approach and methodology that
empowers content authors to test
content for compliance on-demand,
along with “fail safe” automation,
back-end trapping and auditing that
can be integrated within the
workflow of a SharePoint System;
creating a barrier that prevents
non-compliant content from ever
entering a live/production
environment, thus maintaining a
company’s accessible and compliant
site.
Kurt A. Mueffelmann, President & CEO
of HiSoftware stated, “We are
pleased to have Content and Code
join HiSoftware’s rapidly growing
partner program. As SharePoint
continues to grow and compliance
becomes a broader issue across the
enterprise, HiSoftware provides
organizations with technologies that
enable ‘end-to-end’ SharePoint
compliance. Through our partnership
with Content and Code, organizations
can feel confident in a total
solution that integrates best of
breed technologies with the strength
of a world-class implementation
partner.”
