The current web pages were set up in 2010/11, with a redesign carried out in 2013. The website is based on a technology (eWay) which is not being further developed, and it has therefore been decided to procure a new CMS for fhi.no, as well as further development of the content architecture, functionality and graphic expression. Furthermore, the content shall be migrated to the new solution.
The procurement shall safeguard the institute's need for publication of content to the target groups, and this enquiry includes the following:
— New technical platform (CMS) and implementation of this, and migration of content from the current website
— Redesign of the website with a focus on:
o Advising and development of new structure/information architecture
o Advising and development of new templates and universal design
o Advising and development of graphic design adapted to the current design and colours
o Needs mapping, advising and development/adaption of new/improved functions
— Training of for publishers and web-editors
The Norwegian Institute of Public Health has planned to set a requirement in the tender documentation that the tendered solution must be able to operate on Windows platform and with i.a. Internet Information Services, MS-SQL and NET framework. The Institute believes it is relevant to provide guidance on this already in connection with the qualification documentation. The basis for the guidance is that the institute has carried out strategic selection with regard to IT infrastructure, and that internal technical personnel have competence on this platform and these technologies.
The tender documentation will allow options for additional functions and further development, and technical maintenance and user support for the new CMS. It may also allow for an option on operation, a decision about external or internal operation has not currently been made.
The Norwegian Institute of Public Health wants the new internet pages published in June 2016 at the latest.
