Hello Howard,

I have not worked with the Salesforce platform, but I've worked in a limited way with the Salesforce.com Lead Accessibility Specialist Jesse H to help us obtain a VPAT, and an updated VPAT for our use of Salesforce. Jesse was very helpful and knowledgeable. I think Jesse is a member of this list.

See Jesse's recent LinkedIn discussion on "Sticky Column in a data table" https://www.linkedin.com/groups/Sticky-Column-in-data-table-4512178.S.5934063171689013250?view=&item=5934063171689013250&type=member&gid=4512178&trk=eml-b2_anet_digest-group_discussions-13-grouppost-name-1&midToken=AQFhlbY-7QiJ9Q&fromEmail=fromEmail&ut=0hiZ_S2-D5p6E1.

And Salesforce UX developed a new color contrast tool for accessibility compliance, ColorSafe, http://colorsafe.co/. More about ColorSafe, Accessible Interface Design, https://medium.com/salesforce-ux/accessible-interface-design-d80e95cbb2c1. ColorSafe is useful to our staff for WCAG 2.0 Success Criteria (SC) 1.4.1, and 1.4.3 testing.

This level of commitment speaks well of Salesforce's accessibility culture, to me.

Sincerely,

Lisa Caid
