Website Modernization and Hosting Platform

The state of West Virginia is seeking a qualified vendor to modernize and host a secure, accessible, and compliant website platform. This initiative includes the full design, development, and hosting of a modern website serving residents, businesses, and civic partners. Key requirements are a mobile-responsive design, compliance with ADA accessibility standards, and ensuring all payment processes meet IPC/PCI DSS security protocols.

The platform must feature an intuitive content management system that supports role-based access control, making it easy for non-technical staff to update content. Migrating existing information from the current on-premise website to a secure cloud-hosted environment is essential. The new platform should provide advanced analytics and reporting tools to monitor web traffic, accessibility, and user engagement, as well as preserve search engine optimization through proper redirect mapping.

In addition, the solution must support embedded media such as YouTube, Vimeo, and livestreams, and integrate a secure payment portal. Vendors should be prepared to deliver a clean, modern website that meets all compliance and usability standards.
