Web Content Management System (CMS) and Websites Design and Hosting Services

A contracting authority in Ireland is seeking a qualified vendor to deliver web content management system (CMS) solutions, website redesign, and hosting services for three of its websites. This project aims to implement a customer-centric, service-oriented digital presence with improved user experience, predictive search functionality, intuitive navigation, and adherence to established brand guidelines.

The selected vendor will be responsible for a comprehensive redesign to support both English and Irish language experiences, ensuring that language translation options are seamlessly integrated within the CMS and website navigation. SEO optimization is a key requirement, along with the delivery of a concise and easy-to-use primary navigation structure featuring plain-language labels and consistent site behavior. Content strategy must focus on defining user needs and mapping content to user journeys, guaranteeing that priority tasks are easily accessible from the homepage and main navigation.

Design expectations include a clear visual hierarchy—utilizing effective typography, spacing, and color—to distinguish actions and interactive elements, all within a mobile-first, responsive layout. The vendor must ensure that the final solution is accessible, meets the diverse needs of stakeholders, and provides a consistent, high-quality bilingual website experience.
