DESCRIPTION

The organization seeks a qualified vendor to provide comprehensive website maintenance, ongoing development, and strategic support for its WordPress-based site. Services will include updates to WordPress core, plugins, and themes with thorough testing in a staging environment prior to deployment. The chosen vendor will also be responsible for security and performance monitoring, implementing remediation as needed, and maintaining uptime tracking.

Additional responsibilities include integration and form testing between MailChimp, GiveButter, Salesforce, and GA4, as well as broken link detection and resolution. The role requires continual support for ZIP code eligibility gating and curriculum access functionality. Monitoring for cross-browser and device compatibility, maintaining accessibility standards per WCAG 2.2 AA, and conducting monthly site health reporting are also expected.

The engagement will focus on establishing a deep understanding of user experience and site navigation in the first year, with efforts to optimize tracking, site decisions, and workflow efficiency through reusable templates and enhanced editor usability. On-page SEO maintenance and regional as well as national search visibility improvement are part of the ongoing service, alongside providing plain-language website guidance for staff.
