REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS: WEBSITE REDESIGN

INTRODUCTION:

The Animal Medical Center (AMC) in New York City is accepting proposals to redesign and develop our website. The deadline for RFP submissions is December 1, 2017 at 5:00pm ET. Submission instructions may be found at the end of this document.

Our current website, www.amcny.org, was launched in January 2016 and runs on WordPress with a custom template. This site’s CMS was on Drupal prior to this most recent redesign. The website is maintained in-house by the Director of Digital Communications.

For this project, we want to partner with a developer to build a new site that offers an excellent user experience, is state-of-the-art and visually compelling, is interactive, easy to navigate, and optimizes SEO.
