The suite of websites are predominantly CMS manageable, but we would expect to work with the developers on SEO and related content strategies. For website maintenance, the successful service provider will be required to provide on-going support through regular meetings (phone/online/face to face) to work through 'snagging' lists, manage fixes, undertake minor updates and ensure the effective day to day operation of the site. In addition to this because a large number of visitors to our websites are international we will require access to a 24 hour emergency support in case our websites go down, to get them back up and running in a timely manner.
