How about looking up things on section 508 complience.  It's the government
standard and for the most part when things are with the 508 standard, they work
well with jaws.  There's a whole ball of wax to consider here though.  What will
your operating systems be?  what types of screen readers will your users use to
access the site?  Different combinations of these things mean what works well
fore someone may not work well fore someone else and don't get into the habbit
of saying which browser/access technology that person should be using.

Hello friends,

our Intranet Development Team have contact me for advice on making our
intranet accessible with access technology.  Does anyone know if there
is any guidelines or documentation that I can get and pass on to them
please?

Many thanks in anticipation for any help that you can give,

Steve.
