Thu, May 7, 2020 - 10:00 AM PACIFIC TIME - May 7 - Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Sources Sought Webinar for Website Redesign Performance Work Statement: DLA Public Website Redesign Background: DLA Public Affairs intends to change focus, restructure content and improve access to the Defense Logistics Agency public and internal websites so customers outside the organization can better find the resources and information they need. With hundreds of ways in which DLA serves its customers by procuring products and services, there needs to be a relatively simple way to discover right resources to work with the agency. It should be easy for customers to find what they need on the website. The current content, navigation and structure of the website is arranged according to how the agency is structured, and not necessarily how customers would intuitively seek the information for themselves. Some current public information needs to be rearranged, reformatted, condensed or moved to an internal website for employee use. The structure of the public website needs to closer align with industry best practices and best practices from highly rated government website like the Social Security Administration or Internal Revenue Service websites. 3.
