Website Redesign and Content Management Implementation
The Organization is seeking proposals from experienced and qualified individuals and/or organizations (“Consultant”) to provide website design and development services, including a content management system, and potential hosting services and ongoing technical support for its existing website. The website design and development services are anticipated to be required through the launch of the new site, whereas the hosting and support services will be ongoing.
The District has several primary goals for this project, including implementing a system that
enables web contributors to easily update and maintain a user-centric, service-oriented District
website. The new site will:
• Have a current look and feel
• Provide a cohesive and intuitive navigation structure that ensures a successful user
experience
• Accommodate a wide range of information-sharing needs, including outings and events,
document dissemination, a navigable map of protected lands, and featured news
updates.
• Include an intuitive, reliable, bug-free CMS that is routinely upgraded as advancements
are made available.
• Comply with the following accessibility standards as required by the County of Sonoma:
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the 1998 amendment to the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Section 508)
i. Federal accessibility standards established by 36 C.F.R. Section 1194, pursuant
