Project Overview

The National Association of State Workforce Agencies (NASWA) is seeking a qualified digital partner to lead a website revamp of its enterprise Drupal 10 platform. The initiative focuses on a front-end redesign and user experience refresh that improves navigation, messaging clarity, and visual presentation, while preserving the existing back-end architecture, integrations, and content structures.

The goal is to deliver a modern, responsive, and accessible website that better reflects NASWA’s role, services, and value to members, partners, and stakeholders across the workforce ecosystem.

Scope of Work (Requirements)

The selected vendor will provide end-to-end services for a cosmetic website facelift within defined technical constraints:

Project Management

• Manage timeline, milestones, approvals, and stakeholder communication
• Coordinate closely with NASWA’s internal Drupal team

UX Design

• Conduct discovery, usability audits, and stakeholder research
• Develop user personas, journeys, wireframes, and interactive prototypes
• Improve information architecture, navigation, and accessibility

Web Design

• Create modern, on-brand, responsive design concepts
• Deliver reusable design assets and style guidance

Front-End Development

• Develop or enhance a custom Drupal theme compatible with:
  • Drupal 10 (and planned Drupal 11 upgrade)

  • Salesforce REST API data rendered via Twig templates
  • Existing CI/CD pipelines, Solr search, Redis caching, and Pantheon hosting
• Ensure WCAG accessibility, performance optimization, SEO best practices, and cross-browser compatibility

Back-end systems, integrations, and content models are expected to remain largely unchanged.
