Summary

Sedgwick County chose Exemplify LLC for a $98,500 redesign of sedgwickcounty.org to improve visual design, information architecture, ADA accessibility and content governance; the selection followed demos and RFP scoring by Strategic Communications and IT.

Strategic Communications and IT recommended awarding a $98,500 contract to Exemplify LLC to redesign the county website (sedgwickcounty.org). The project will deliver a design template, information architecture that prioritizes user experience, ADA accessibility improvements, SEO best practices and training materials for editors.

"Exemplify, I believe, gave us the most comprehensive proposal meeting our scope, and they had the best experience," Assistant County Manager Tonya Cole said, noting the selection committee had evaluated demonstrations and prioritized ADA accessibility and information architecture. The county's principal developer (Matt) said Exemplify demonstrated experience with the content management system the county already operates and could meet technical objectives.

The board asked a few clarification questions; the motion to accept Exemplify's quote was moved, seconded and approved by roll call. Detailed contract milestones and launch timeline were not discussed in the public meeting record.
