What they need
The organization's website was built on Weebly in 2015.
It contains approximately 150 pages of architectural research, event recordings, news, and historical documentation.
The original platform is no longer supported, and the organization wants to move its content into a modern system that volunteers can manage.
The scope includes content migration, redesigned navigation, searchable research, events and archives, accessibility improvements, and integration with NEON CRM for member-only resources and event benefits.
The organization prefers WordPress but will consider another CMS.
What to know before bidding
The proposed budget is subject, in part, to a grant application. The organization expects to learn the result in December.
Docomomo will evaluate proposals based on experience, technical qualifications, project planning, past performance, and understanding of its architectural preservation mission.
International firms may submit proposals, although the organization has announced a preference for U.S.-based firms or companies with North American offices.
The deadline is December 1, and the intended project start is January 2027.
