Having been in your position for some time until recently (I was standards
manager for Telstra), I found that the best way to achieve change toward
accessibility was to meet with the stakeholders and either take a
transcript, or play directly a Jaws readout of a page that had been sliced
and diced into tables, especially if non-semantic markup is also
incorporated. Their reaction is often one of horror when they realize how
incomprehensible their page becomes. If they need further convincing, just
ask them how to find one or two of the most visually obvious items within
the Jaws rendition.
