A district in British Columbia is seeking a qualified vendor to lead the redesign, development, and content migration of its website utilizing WordPress, Drupal, or an equivalent open-source content management system. The goal is to create a modern, accessible, and user-friendly website that effectively enhances the district’s online presence and improves the overall experience for users.

The vendor should demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of local government service delivery, public engagement best practices, and user experience design. The new website must be compatible with all major browsers and mobile devices, support the latest version of PHP, and provide features for showcasing projects and collecting public feedback through engagement tools.

Integration with existing third-party systems, in conjunction with the district's IT contractor, is also required. Additionally, the solution must include an external Web Application Firewall (WAF), or the vendor must collaborate with the IT contractor to identify a suitable alternative. The selected developer must be available 24/7 to address critical issues such as downtime or security incidents, with up-to-date contact information maintained on file.

Vendors interested in this opportunity should ensure their expertise aligns with these requirements.
