Wow… and I thought I wasn’t cheap!
According to this article, the City of Austin will vote this week on awarding a contract to a California company to “redesign their existing website.” I’m sure it’s a large site with a fairly complex structure, and they do want the company to migrate all existing content over to the new site. A CMS will be involved (of course). But I’m having a hard time getting to “$705k”. Ironically, that’s the “low” bid. Two Austin-based companies bid on this for around $1.3m (forcing the city to consider the out of state offer)!
WHY didn’t they call me… why…
