A California city is seeking a qualified vendor to provide comprehensive website services for its economic development site. The project encompasses website design, development, hosting, testing, launching, updating, and ongoing maintenance, all built on a robust content management system (CMS).

The selected vendor will create a high-quality website that positions the city as a leading destination for business growth and relocation. Key requirements include full desktop and mobile compatibility, social media integration, SEO optimization, and third-party software integration. The site must feature Google Analytics for performance reporting, an integrated CRM, and a clean, modern user interface with rich content and professional copywriting.

The CMS should enable easy content updates by city staff, with vendor support available for additional edits, and continuous application of security and technology updates. The website must be ADA compliant at all government levels and include strong security protocols, including HTTPS with a valid TLS certificate. Ongoing service and technical support must be available, with response times of 48 hours or less and some coverage during Pacific Time Zone hours. The contract term for these services will be one year.
