Request for Proposal for Content Management System
Must Have Items
 The CMS product selected will need to support multiple administrators with their own login accounts.
 The CMS must have the ability to produce, receive and integrate into the existing website RSS feeds
 Provide Web 2.0 services integrations for popular sites, such as Twitter, Flickr, Facebook, Delicious, RSS, Dopplr and other social networking sites. This is needed as we continue to incorporate more interactive features into the website.
 ADA reader compatible pages are needed to better support our visually impaired patrons.
 Compatibility with different browsers to view our website(s), or simply referred to as browser-agnostic, is required. Such browsers currently include, but are not limited to: Internet Explorer (Versions 6, 7 & 8), Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari and Google Chrome.
 Adobe Flash Player must be supported, as we do produce Flash files.
 Mobile devices such as iPods, iPhones, Droids and Blackberry devices need to be supported.
 The CMS permissions must allow site administrators full access, and make it possible to set permissions for other groups or individuals.
 There needs to be a reliable statistics gathering mechanism that gives at least the same reporting capabilities of Google Analytics, but does not have to use Google Analytics.
 In our current system, it is difficult to update and locate content. Updates to existing content need to be quick and easy to accomplish.
 Authorized staff must be able to easily add, edit and delete content to specific sections of the website for which they have permission to do so.
 Staff must have the ability to easily upload images, .pdfs, and other files to be hosted on the server through the admin tool.
 There must be an ability to seamlessly integrate with County of Marin calendaring system. The calendaring system of choice is Trumba, which uses JavaScript and AJAX. More information on Trumba can be found at http://www.trumba.com.
