Alternative suggestions on how to provide a solution for the requirement may be considered but non compliance will be highly detrimental in the evaluation of the proposal. (14 points) The delivery of this requirement is highly desirable and alternative suggestions may be considered. Non compliance will be detrimental in the evaluation process. Low (0,52 points) The requirement is not mandatory but compliance will be viewed favourably in the evaluation process.

In the event of justified technical or practical reasons for not complying with WCAG 2.0, level AA guidelines, the exceptions should be explained in an accessibility page The WCMS shall have rich out-of-the-box functionality to reduce the number of customisations required to fulfil the requirements contained in this document The WCMS shall support the creation, modification and deletion of templates to enable easy management of site and page layout and navigation Layout and content shall be managed separately (i.e. it must be possible to create and edit content without having to amend or create a template) Page 4

5 0040 The web interface shall support the creation and application of styles using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) enabling the swift alteration of the look and feel (colour, font, image size and positioning, link attributes, table properties). It must be possible to use multiple stylesheets with any style conflicts being resolved by the CSS rule of last in, first out. All controls should be rendered through CSS as should most of the look and feel - graphics should be optimized to support page loading performance.

While specific mobile friendly pages can be an option, dynamic rendering is a good feature since it does not relay on a specific presentation template or set of presentation templates. The WCMS will need to support a robust campaign function - this is the ability to rapidly develop and deploy a set of related content. This functionality maps well to supporting ECDC's mission in responding to a public health crises by making it easier to put together and publish content as a matter of urgency.
