Project Overview

Jefferson Parish is seeking a qualified web design and development firm to redesign and redevelop two public-facing websites: JPOIG.net and JPECC.net. The objective is to replace outdated, difficult-to-navigate sites with modern, transparent, and user-friendly platforms that promote ethics in government and help prevent fraud, waste, and abuse.

The project includes recommending a suitable content management system (CMS), redesigning both websites, migrating all existing content, and providing guidance on a future-ready hosting environment. While this is primarily a one-time redesign effort, options for post-launch support may be considered.

Scope of Work (Requirements)

The selected vendor will be responsible for:

• Assessing and recommending an appropriate CMS (WordPress or similar open-standard platform)
• Redesigning both JPOIG and JPECC websites with a clean, professional, and intuitive UI
• Delivering a fully mobile-responsive and WCAG 2.2 Level AA compliant website
• Improving site navigation, usability, and content organization
• Developing interactive features, including:
  • Public dashboards (financial findings tracker and parish funds tracker)
  • Secure online reporting forms for fraud, waste, abuse, and ethics complaints
• Implementing a searchable document repository with embedded PDF viewing
• Migrating all historical content, reports, and documents
• Recommending and supporting migration to a suitable hosting environment
• Providing administrator documentation, training, and deployment runbooks
• Ensuring performance, security, and accessibility standards are met

Why This Is a Great Opportunity

This is an excellent opportunity for web design and development agencies with experience in government, compliance, or public-sector websites. The project offers high visibility, meaningful civic impact, and the chance to build data-driven, accessible platforms used by residents, officials, and oversight bodies.

Firms with strengths in WordPress development, UX design, accessibility compliance, secure forms, and interactive dashboards will be especially well aligned.
