DESCRIPTION

The procuring organization is seeking a vendor to provide website redesign services using a content management system for a small nonprofit or association team with limited technical resources. The new website is expected to include an AI-powered chatbot to help visitors locate information, as well as a dedicated section with sub-tabs or sub-pages for each provincial Simmental association so that each can maintain its own documents and content.

The scope includes discovery and planning activities such as reviewing the current website, assessing existing content, identifying content to migrate, retire, or restructure, and consulting with staff and board representatives to confirm goals, audiences, and priority tasks. The selected vendor is also expected to recommend a suitable CMS platform, such as WordPress or a comparable solution, with supporting rationale.

The project also includes UX and visual design, including wireframes for key page templates, branded design concepts and mockups, and a responsive layout optimized for desktop, tablet, and mobile devices. Development requirements include building the site on the selected CMS, configuring a user-friendly editing experience for non-technical staff, migrating content from the current static site, and implementing basic on-page SEO elements such as meta titles, descriptions, clean URL structure, image alt text framework, and sitemap generation.

Questions must be submitted no later than July 17, 2026.
