RCUH received multiple questions about RCUH RFP No. CS2024-1, “Design and Development of RCUH Website.” Below are RCUH’s responses.
Q: In Section 2.5-1, is RCUH referring to a commercial CMS product, a custom CMS, or an open-source CMS? Should we include a scope for CMS training in this proposal?
A: In terms of a CMS, RCUH is not restricting it to a certain type of CMS, however it should be user-friendly for staff to update and maintain. In terms of CMS training, a scope would be helpful, but not mandatory for the proposal. Pricing for CMS training should be included in the base proposal, per 3.1.5 (pg. 11 – see second bullet under Base Proposal).
Q: What specific SEO goals does RCUH want to achieve? For instance, improved rankings, increased traffic, higher conversion rates, etc.
A: In terms of SEO goals mentioned in Section 2.6, RCUH would like to:
Q: Could the choice of CMS be a factor in reducing administrative overhead during the modernization process?
A: Yes, that could be a factor in your proposal.
Q: What specific requirements or guidelines does RCUH have in mind for ensuring that all images on the new site have appropriate alternative text to meet WCAG compliance?
A: Per Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, websites should provide text alternatives for any non-text content, such as images, and if non-text content is pure decoration, is used only for visual formatting, or is not presented to users, then it is implemented in a way that it can be ignored by assistive technology. RCUH would like to ensure all images have alternative text to be compliant with these guidelines and will discuss this process with the selected Offerer. RCUH will provide a collection of images with descriptions that the selected Offeror may choose from for the updated webpage.
Q: In the Document Library, permalinks should remain the same even when documents are updated or replaced. If we move forward with modernization, we should structure slugs and breadcrumbs on the page for improved navigation. Will these changes be acceptable for modification?
A: Yes. We encourage other suggestions Offerers may have to improve navigation on the RCUH website.
Q: RCUH having defined routes at https://www.rcuh.com/news/ does not effectively represent information to the end user compared to https://www.rcuh.com/about. Should we address this issue?
Yes.

The RCUH Financial Portal is back in operation and Fiscal Administrators may resume approving transactions.
On Tuesday, July 09, 2024, we encountered a system error that affected our end-of-day business processing. Vendor payments for transactions approved on July 09 will be processed in accordance with our normal processing schedule.
RCUH transactions approved on July 09 for UH Extramural and SRRC accounts will be transmitted and posted to the UH Kuali Financial System on July 10.
Additionally, vendor payments for transactions approved July 08 have been processed in accordance with our normal processing schedule. Checks were printed and distributed, and ePayments (ACH and Card) were processed. However, the Financial Portal Approved listing screens and Search All Documents have not been updated with payment information (Check Date, Check Number, Payment Type) for transactions approved on those days. Thank you for your patience as we continue to work on resolving this issue.
We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience. If you have any questions, please contact [email protected].
