Website Redesign, Development and Hosting Service Using CMS

The issuing agency is seeking a qualified vendor to provide website redesign, development, and hosting services using a Content Management System. The agency needs to solve the problem of complex site management by implementing a responsive, mobile-friendly website with a flexible, modular CMS that allows internal staff to update content and modify menu structures without vendor assistance. The system must support differentiated user roles and integrate with SharePoint to display public-facing documents such as agendas and minutes from various boards and groups. The scope of work requires organizing website content for easy navigation, specifically highlighting the four main areas of Council of Governments, Regional Development, Environment, and Transportation. The site structure must include dedicated sections for success stories with multimedia embedding, membership information, and newsletters. The agency also prefers a password-protected membership portal managed through Active Directory that allows user account management and access control at the individual or organizational level. The selected vendor must provide hosting options detailing the platform type, security features, and the backup and maintenance approach. The contract period will span one year, and all performance of the work must occur offsite. Eligible bidders must be located onshore within the United States. Bidders must submit their proposals digitally via email or through the designated online portal. The agency has not disclosed a specific budget and is looking for proposals to define the cost. The source document does not specify the evaluation criteria or key deadline dates for this opportunity.
