DESCRIPTION

The organization is seeking a vendor to provide website launch, hosting, redesign, development, and user experience services using WordPress CMS. The website will support a health system that provides care across the full continuum, including community-based primary care, hospitals, emergency departments, long-term care, home care, and academic medicine. The goal is to redesign, redevelop, and improve the user experience of the public website to create a modern, accessible, and engaging digital platform aligned with long-term organizational goals and evolving priorities.

Scope of work includes review of current website analytics, content inventory, and user feedback, followed by front-end and back-end development of the approved design. The selected vendor is expected to configure and develop WordPress functionality that enables non-technical staff to independently create, edit, date, archive, and sunset content. A priority deliverable is the development of a Resource Hub with robust tagging, filtering, and search functionality.

The project also includes integration with existing systems such as the event registration platform, MainPro+, and the organization's email and communications platform. Ongoing requirements include performance optimization, security implementation with spam and phishing protections, regular WordPress, theme, and plugin updates, minor content support within defined monthly hours, performance monitoring, broken link resolution, and monthly or quarterly website health reporting.
