Build a Website

1.0 Introduction Our Client currently has a web presence that is somewhat outdated in appearance, structure and in the presentation of content. An opportunity exists to re-engineer the site to better reflect the mission of our Client (see section 1.1), and incorporate the latest web technology. Upon completion of the development and implementation of the website, our client will assume full responsibility for website content management and administration. All content, coding and graphics will become the sole property of our Client. The purpose of this Request for Proposal (RFP) is to assist our Client in selecting a Proponent with the capability and experience to efficiently and cost-effectively provide the service requirements outlined. The requirements stated are as envisioned by our Client at the time of writing, but may change or be refined in the course of the evaluation and negotiation process. 1.1 About Our Client The Client’s mission is to provide leadership in health management activities by developing and promoting quality standards, practices, research, certification and professional development to expand capacity for its members.
