The City is soliciting Requests for Qualifications and Proposals (RFQP) from qualified, experienced information technology management companies to redesign and construct its public city website. This project will also include the development of a parallel economic development site.
The goal of the Citys website is to provide simple and intuitive electronic access to public services; serve as a public communications tool; reduce transaction costs for the
City and citizens; streamline business operations; provide greater accessibility to City services; improve transparency and communication; and generate interest among residents, visitors, and businesses in the resources and attractions Janesville has to offer. As the current website is challenging to navigate for citizens and businesses interested in locating to the city and cumbersome for staff to maintain, the redesigned site should have a theme that promotes the City with a welcoming, friendly, and professional feel. The new site will be flexible, interesting and easy for city staff to maintain. The City will be in charge of content management and will own all content. Upon completion and acceptance of the project structure and design, the website will become the domain of the City.
