GLOBAL - Website Development, Hosting, Migration and Testing Service Using Drupal CMS

The agency is seeking a vendor to provide comprehensive website development, hosting, migration, and testing services using the Drupal content management system. The primary goal is to secure a highly secure, fast, and reliable hosting environment for a high-traffic public website. The selected provider must handle all server administration and maintenance tasks under a managed hosting model. The scope of work requires the establishment of a three-tier environment consisting of development, testing, and production stages with seamless migration capabilities between them. The agency requires a guaranteed minimum uptime of 99.9 percent for the production environment, calculated monthly and documented in performance reports. Additionally, the vendor must provide regular security updates and patches for the Drupal core, contributed modules, and themes, alongside a Web Application Firewall and network-level firewall to protect against unauthorized access and application-layer threats. The project covers the successful migration of the existing Drupal-based website to the new platform. The agency requires tools for testing and monitoring website performance, quick resolution of production issues, and a user-friendly control panel for managing domains and databases. Work will be performed entirely offsite, and eligibility is open to bidders worldwide. The agency is looking for proposals to determine the budget for this initiative. Bidders must submit their responses digitally via email or online. No specific evaluation criteria or key dates are provided in the source materials.
