REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL WFTDA.COM AND WFTDA.TV 

The Women’s Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA) is seeking proposals from qualified firms or individuals to assist with redesign and development of two websites: Our public, organization website WFTDA.com, and our broadcast channel site, WFTDA.tv. 

Background 
The WFTDA is the international governing body for the sport of women’s flat track roller derby, and a membership organization for leagues to collaborate and network. There are currently over 300 member and apprentice leagues. 

The WFTDA sets standards for rules, seasons, and safety, and determines guidelines for the national and international athletic competitions of member leagues. 

The organization is composed of a volunteer Board of Directors and elected Officers (who are also league members) and a handful of paid staff and consultants. Each league appoints one or more skaters and officials to represent their league and serve on a WFTDA committee, such as Finance, Marketing, Sanctioning, and Referee Certification. 

The selected Vendor will work with both Staff and Volunteers to design and develop the new WFTDA.com and WFTDA.tv sites.

REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL WEBSITE REDEVELOPMENT - 2014

Issue Date: January 28, 2014 - Closing Date: February 12, 2014 4:00PM

1. SUMMARY
 

The Halifax Pride Committee (“Halifax Pride”) Request proposals to redesign, redevelop, host, maintain, and support its public website (www.halifaxpride.com), the “Project”. The Project will be a concept-to-completion production.
 

The purpose of this Request for Proposal (“RFP”) is to seek submissions (“Proposals”) from those interested in being awarded a contract (“Proponents”) to complete the Project and to provide information about concepts, features, and design functions that must be incorporated in the Project. The RFP also establishes a process through which Proposals will be evaluated, and either selected or rejected by the Halifax Pride Committee’s Board of Directors.

2. ABOUT HALIFAX PRIDE
 

2.1. COMMUNITY
 

Halifax was founded in 1749; history, seafaring culture, and urban adventure come together in Halifax, our vibrant capital city by the sea. A walk along the historic Halifax waterfront reveals everything from tall ships and museums to harbour cruises and the largely attended Halifax Pride Festival, 4th largest in Canada. Venture through our downtown where you’ll find 17th and 18th century architecture, galleries, museums, theatres, and boutique shops. We also have the most pubs per capita in all of North America!
 

2.2. CURRENT WEBSITE
 

The current Halifax Pride website is hosted in the cloud and uses an out of date Wordpress plugin as the content managing system. It is difficult to maintain due to the numerous redundancies and inefficient updating processes. The site was built as a make-shift solution and was not intended to remain in use for this amount of time. The websites compatibility with modern web browsers is becoming an ever more pressing issue. There is currently no mobile-friendly version of the site and the site is not touch-interface friendly.
