SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION
An organization is seeking a qualified vendor to design, develop, host, and maintain three responsive websites utilizing a non-proprietary content management system (CMS). Suitable CMS platforms include widely adopted solutions such as WordPress or Drupal. Proposals should outline both the website design and the accompanying hosting services, ensuring ease of management and long-term sustainability.
Key website and CMS requirements include user- and SEO-friendly site structures, with hierarchical URLs that reflect site navigation and ensure all important pages are navigable within three clicks from the homepage. Essential technical features include automatically updated XML sitemaps, SEO-ready robots.txt, and the future capability to add llms.txt. Sites must deliver fully responsive experiences across devices and browsers, and meet 'Good' thresholds for all Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP/FID, CLS). Additional requirements cover optimization for speed and performance, such as avoiding intrusive interstitials, using optimized image formats with compression and lazy loading, minifying code (CSS, JS, HTML), implementing server-side caching, and integrating a CDN.
The vendor should also ensure all pages have unique, editable metadata (titles, descriptions, H1 tags), and utilize semantic HTML5 structure for accessibility and effective SEO. All questions regarding the project must be submitted by December 2, 2025.
