    Brief

    MCCIP is seeking a supplier to redesign and develop a new, user-friendly website to replace its current Drupal-based platform, which will become obsolete by December 2026. The new website must launch by 1 December 2026 and be supported through 31 March 2030. The MCCIP website serves as a 20-year repository of marine climate change evidence and policy advice, hosting primarily PDF and Word documents plus ArcGIS Storymaps. The current site lacks proper search and cataloguing functionality, has confusing navigation, performs poorly on mobile devices, and requires complex updates through an overly complicated CMS. Key requirements include: a simple, intuitive content management system allowing the MCCIP Secretariat to manage updates independently; a searchable document library with filtering by publication date, document type, topic and title; fresh design aligned with MCCIP branding and marine/climate change themes; integration of external content including YouTube videos and ArcGIS Storymaps; analytics dashboard tracking user engagement metrics; contact forms linked to MCCIP email; UK Government data security compliance; AI bot accessibility while protecting content integrity; CMS training for staff; and migration of all existing content with potential rationalization. The supplier must provide a clear delivery timeline, demonstrate expertise in information architecture and user experience design for document-heavy sites, propose suitable CMS options with justification, and outline hosting and support packages that enable minimal ongoing supplier involvement while ensuring smooth transition options if the service is retendered after 2030.
