And Then There Were Three Finalists
Last week, three Web firms were selected by the Vendor Proposal Review Advisory Group to come to campus on October 10 and 17 and on November 10 to present their Web redesign proposals in person. The presentations will be made to the advisory group as well as members of the college’s Administrative Leadership Group (directors from across the college).
We can’t express enough our gratitude to the advisory group for all their hard work in reviewing the seven vendor proposals submitted in response to the Web redesign RFP. Advisory group members had to be very familiar with the 21 page RFP and had to read through and score vendor proposals ranging in length from 50-60 plus pages. No small task to say the least given the technical nature of the RFP and submitted proposals.
The college was very fortunate to have such a competitive pool of redesign proposals to review. Putting together a proposal in response to an RFP is no small task for any company since it usually involves multiple staff and many hours of work to produce. So we are very appreciative of all the time and effort extended by each Web firm!
So not to delay any further, here are the three finalists who will be on campus in October and November for on-site presentations.
BigBad (Boston, Mass.)

October 10

November 10 (tentative)
The on-site presentations will be open by invitation only. With that said, once a finalist is chosen for the redesign project, there will be plenty of opportunity for the campus to offer feedback and input. During the redesign’s discovery phase, the vendor chosen for the project will be on campus for several days meeting with faculty and staff from across the college.
We also invite you to use this blog’s commenting capability to leave your thoughts and feedback on items of particular interest to you relating to the redesign.
