What it requires
- If you sell or license information and communication technology to an executive branch entity of Kansas state government, expect the entity to require it to conform to the Revised Section 508 Standards, the ADA Title II Regulations Subpart H and WCAG 2.1 levels A and AA, because the entity must apply section 6.2 to ICT provided through contractual, licensing or other arrangements (ITEC Policy 1210-P, section 6.2).
- If you post content on an entity's site due to a contractual, licensing or other arrangement with the entity, expect that content to be held to section 6.2 (section 6.4.3).
- Information and communication technology you acquire as a contractor incidental to a contract with the entity is not required to conform to section 6.2 (section 6.4.6).
- If conforming ICT is not commercially available, expect the entity to document the non-availability and the market research it performed, and to buy the ICT that best meets section 6.2 consistent with its business needs (sections 6.4.9 to 6.4.9.2).

What this law does
Section 6.2 of ITEC Policy 1210-P requires information and communication technology that executive branch entities procure, develop, maintain or use, including that provided or made available through contractual, licensing or other arrangements, to conform to the Revised Section 508 Standards, the ADA Title II Regulations Subpart H and WCAG 2.1 levels A and AA.
Section 6.4.6 provides that information and communication technology acquired by a contractor incidental to a contract is not required to conform to the requirements of section 6.2. Section 6.4.3 provides that content posted by a third party is not required to conform to section 6.2 unless the third party is posting due to contractual, licensing or other arrangements with the entity.
Under section 6.4.9, an entity that cannot obtain commercially available ICT that conforms to section 6.2 may request an exception, and if it is granted the entity shall procure the ICT that best meets the requirements consistent with the entity's business needs.
