 We are getting ready for a major undertaking to involve a complete overhaul 
 of our very large Web site/CMS system to include a new design,
 information architecture, marketing strategy, CMS platform, etc. We plan on 
 issuing 2 RFPs: one for the design/marketing strategy and one for
 the technical implementation.

I see that other people have mentioned my company already, so I won't
bother to toot my own horn.

If you're implementing a CMS product, you might want to ask the vendor
if they have any preferred partners. For example, we're a CommonSpot
partner, and have done a lot of large-scale CMS implementations with
it.

Hi Dave,

Figleaf is definitely on our list and personally my favorite. Your mention of 
preferred partners is a great suggestion.

Thanks :)

ColdFusion Companies in Baltimore/DC/VA

2010-11-01 Thread John Bono

Hello,

We are getting ready for a major undertaking to involve a complete overhaul of 
our very large Web site/CMS system to include a new design, information 
architecture, marketing strategy, CMS platform, etc. We plan on issuing 2 RFPs: 
one for the design/marketing strategy and one for the technical implementation.

However, finding companies in the Baltimore/Washington, DC/Virginia area with a 
preference for ColdFusion has proven to be very difficult.

We have a preference for a company that uses ColdFusion as one of its 
technologies. Does anyone know of any companies in this area that would be able 
to perform such work?

Thanks in advance!

Perhaps you could also direct this question toward your local CFUG's and
their members:

While I agree with John's suggestion of reaching out to local CFUGs, I can
think of 3 companies off the top of my head (but I'm sure there are others).

In no particular order...

Thank you Charlie!

Figleaf is already on our list to be solicited based on the work I've seen them 
perform. However, in the interest of due diligence, we also want to look at 
other companies for comparison.

think of 3 companies off the top of my head (but I'm sure there are others).
