REQUESTED ACTION:
MOTION TO APPROVE a Second Amendment to Agreement No. 21-01 Between Broward Metropolitan Planning Organization and Goodman Public Relations, Inc for Website Services in a Total Amount Not to Exceed $36,400
WHAT THIS ACTION ACCOMPLISHES:
Approval of this item will allow the MPO to extend the existing Agreement with Goodman Public Relations, Inc for a further six months to better align the term with the Organization's fiscal year and provide continued operations and maintenance of the MPO's website.
SUMMARY EXPLANATION/BACKGROUND:
On November 4, 2021, the MPO entered into an Agreement with Goodman Public Relations, Inc for Website Services at a cost not to exceed $150,000. This Agreement allowed for a website redesign, technical support, maintenance and hosting the Broward MPO website. For the initial Agreement with Goodman for these services, please see Attachment 1.
As industry standards continued to evolve, further updates to the MPO's website were necessary. On October 30, 2025, a First Amendment (provided in Attachment 2) was approved by the MPO Executive Committee to allow additional enhancements to be made to the website to modernize it and have it reflect the Organization's updated theme, improve navigation, and provide an optimized user experience. These enhancements ensured visual consistency, improved content discoverability through advanced search functionality, and added interactive elements to better connect visitors with MPO programs and initiatives. The First Amendment provided these services at a cost not to exceed $98,527, bringing the total amount of the Agreement to $248,527.
To better align the Agreement term with the Organization's fiscal year and to provide continued operations and maintenance of the MPO's website, a Second Amendment is now being proposed that will extend the term for another six months at a cost not to exceed $36,400, bringing the total amount of the Agreement to $284,927. All other terms and conditions of the existing Agreement remain unchanged.
For the proposed Second Amendment to the Agreement for Website Services, please see Attachment 3. Staff will be available at the upcoming meeting to address any questions or comments.
