Website Redesign and Development
The City is accepting proposals to develop, design and host the City website by
firms experienced in governmental design and function. This will be a concept to completion project.
The purpose of this RFP is to provide a fair evaluation of candidates that possess the skills needed and to
provide the candidates with the evaluation criteria against which they will be judged.
The primary objective for the website is to build brand identity for all organizations that support the
citizens of Palestine and various stakeholder and diverse audiences by creating a unified brand identity
and awareness of the services provided by the City.
The creation of a flexible, informative website with easy maintenance interface is vital to City
operations. The City is seeking development of a user-friendly site that can deliver large amounts of
content that may change frequently to various stakeholder audiences, i.e. the
local resident/business, visitor/tourist, economic development/business leader, chamber of commerce
stakeholder, etc.
In addition to a flexible, user-friendly site with an intuitive interface, there must be a web-based,
database focused administration tool that allows key staff to easily manage updates and content
without directly accessing source code or high-level coding functions.
