A local government agency in New Zealand is seeking vendors to provide comprehensive website design and build services utilizing a content management system (CMS). The desired solution should be robust, user-friendly, cost-effective, and fully compliant with local government standards, including requirements for accessibility, security, and effective information management.

Scope of work includes both complete website builds—covering frontend design and user experience—and backend-only development, where the council will supply and implement its own HTML/CSS templates. Additionally, there may be a need for multiple sites to be built using shared components and a uniform design approach. Interested vendors should be prepared to meet all specified technical and regulatory standards.
