Campus-Wide Web Design Services

The University is seeking qualified vendors to provide comprehensive web design, user experience, and digital strategy services on an as-needed basis for various campus units. The agency needs to solve the challenge of managing diverse digital environments by establishing a pool of suppliers capable of designing and developing in both WordPress and Drupal. The selected partners must successfully deploy code across university-sanctioned hosting platforms, including Pantheon and WPEngine, using central university accounts. The scope of work covers discovery and information architecture, which includes conducting stakeholder interviews, auditing legacy academic content or taxonomies, and mapping user journeys. The agency requires user interface and user experience visual design to craft mobile-first, high-fidelity mock-ups for core academic templates that strictly adhere to the university Visual Identity System. Additionally, the project demands custom theme and component development, accessibility certification, and technical deployment collaboration. Bidders must be onshore, United States organizations to be eligible for this opportunity. The agency requires all performance of the work to take place offsite. Bidders must submit their responses digitally, either via email or through the designated online portal, and the agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget.
