+title: Haskell.org Redesign RFP
+page: haskell-org-redesign-rfp
+---
+
+# Current Status
+
+This RFP is currently **Open** and we are actively soliciting proposals.
+
+# Introduction
+
+Haskell.org, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, operates and maintains the
+website at [http://haskell.org](https://www.haskell.org). Our team, primarily
+composed of committed volunteers, is dedicated to expanding the recognition of
+Haskell and fueling broader interest in the language. We are seeking proposals
+for a website redesign project to update and improve our site's visual design,
+thereby enhancing the user experience for our community.
+
+# Budget and Scope
+
+Haskell.org has allocated up to 2500 USD for this project. The scope
+of work includes a visual overhaul of several key pages on haskell.org,
+specifically the pages titled:
+
+-   Get Started
+-   Downloads
+-   Community
+-   Documentation
+-   Donate
+
+The visual overhaul may include, but is not limited to, changes to the
+layout of the pages, the creation of new graphics and icons, and
+requests to the Haskell.org committee for new text content to be
+included on the pages.
+
+The redesign of these pages should follow a cohesive visual style and
+design language that matches with the design of the haskell.org home
+page. Additionally, while we do not seek a complete visual overhaul to
+the home page of haskell.org, we anticipate that there may be some minor
+changes to this page to conform to changes elsewhere on the site. Please
+note that only pages that are part of the primary [haskell.org
+site](<https://github.com/haskell-infra/www.haskell.org>) are in scope
+for this project.
+
+We are open to proposals covering a reduced scope of work, as long as
+the end result is production-ready. The final deliverables for this
+project should include all necessary code (HTML, CSS, JavaScript,
+template changes, etc.) and assets (images, fonts) required for the
+site's overhaul. While this is a design-centric project, any minimal
+content changes or copywriting adjustments required to accommodate the
+new design should be included.
+
+# Technical Requirements
+
+Specific technical requirements for the work and deliverables will be
+determined in collaboration with the selected party. However, it's
+vital for proposers to understand the unique constraints and context of
+Haskell.org:
+
+-   We are a non-profit organization with a limited budget.
+-   We don't have dedicated full-time staff, so ease of ongoing
+    maintenance is a significant factor in our review of proposals.
+
+Our current website is statically generated using Hakyll, and its
+content is primarily crafted with markdown, CSS, and a sprinkle of
+JavaScript. The committee and our dedicated volunteers are
+well-acquainted with these technologies. Proposals that extend and
+enhance the existing infrastructure, rather than suggesting a full
+replacement, will be particularly appealing to us. We anticipate that
+given the limited scope of this project, most proposers will opt to
+build upon our current foundation.
+
+Other essential technical considerations include:
+
+-   Ensuring site accessibility.
+-   Compliance with GDPR.
+-   Any implications for hosting, maintenance, or licensing in the
+    future.
+
+# Proposal
+
+Proposals should be emailed to the Haskell.org committee at
+[email protected]. Proposals may be submitted at any time, and will
+be reviewed as they are received until an appropriate proposal has been
+selected. Proposals need not be formal but should include at least:
+
+-   A detailed summary of the work to be completed.
+-   An estimate for the total time to deliver the project.
+-   Any additional services provided such as support and maintenance
+    post-implementation.
+-   An overview of your relevant experience and past portfolio, if any.
+-   Any potential challenges you foresee and how you plan to address
+    them.
+
+# Selection and Notification Process
+
+Proposals will be reviewed by the Haskell.org committee. Each proposal
+will be evaluated based on its thoroughness, the feasibility of the
+timeline, the proposer's relevant experience, and alignment with the
+budget. We may reach out to the proposers for further information or
+clarification during the review process.
+
+The selected proposer will be notified by email as soon as the committee has
+reached a decision. Once a proposer is selected, a contract detailing the scope
+of work, payment terms, and other project specifics will be negotiated. Upon
+acceptance of a proposal, other submitters will be notified via email.
+
+# Contact Information
+
+For any questions or clarifications related to this RFP, please contact
+the Haskell.org committee at [email protected].
+
+Thank you for considering this opportunity. We look forward to your
+creative and innovative proposals.
