Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 107 / Tuesday, June 4, 2013 / Notices 5. Section 508 Compliance— Contestants must acknowledge that they understand that, as a pre-requisite to any subsequent acquisition by FAR contract or other method, they may be required to make their proposed solution compliant with Section 508 accessibility and usability requirements at their own expense. Any electronic information technology that is ultimately obtained by HHS for its use, development, or maintenance must meet Section 508 accessibility and usability standards. Past experience has demonstrated that it can be costly for solution-providers to ‘‘retrofit’’ solutions if remediation is later needed. The HHS Section 508 Evaluation Product Assessment Template, available at https://www.hhs.gov/web/508/ contracting/technology/vendors.html, provides a useful roadmap for developers to review. It is a simple, web-based checklist utilized by HHS officials to allow vendors to document how their products do or do not meet the various Section 508 requirements. 6. Functionality/Accuracy—A Submission may be disqualified if the application fails to function as expressed in the description provided by the user, or if the application provides inaccurate or incomplete information. 7. Security—Submissions must be free of malware. Contestant agrees that ONC may conduct testing on the application to determine whether malware or other security threats may be present. ONC may disqualify the application if, in ONC’s judgment, the application may damage government or others’ equipment or operating environment. tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Additional Information Ownership of intellectual property is determined by the following: • Patient Application category entrants retain title and full ownership in and to their submission.
