Bring website hosting, technical care and admissions continuity under clear, coordinated management—with NPTI in control of its digital assets.
Prepared for NPTI. Three delivery models, clear responsibilities and preferred-client pricing. Final project scope and schedule are confirmed after technical access review.
01 / Edudigital managed
One accountable service partner.
Edudigital coordinates hosting, migration and ongoing website care alongside NPTI’s existing admissions technology, with one accountable service relationship.
Centralize technical coordination, preserve the connection between the website and admissions, and give NPTI clear ownership of its accounts and content.
Institutional ownership
Document who controls the domain, website, analytics and business accounts. Put institutional ownership and recovery access in writing.
Admissions continuity
Preserve the existing inquiry pathway to Edudigital CRM. Verify submission delivery, routing and attribution before and after launch.
Safe publication
Keep NPTI’s approved program information, catalog and consumer disclosures accessible. NPTI remains the authority for their accuracy and approval.
01 / Compare
Who owns the work?
All three options preserve NPTI’s authority over its content and digital assets. The delivery owner changes.

Hybrid boundary: Providing a hosting environment does not transfer the agency’s website-management duties to NPTI’s technology administrator. The agency remains the first contact for website issues. Server-level requests require a documented escalation; shared server administration access is not part of the handoff.
02 / Investment
Edudigital managed services.
Option 1 brings website operations and NPTI’s existing Edudigital services into one coordinated relationship. Monthly management and one-time technical delivery are itemized below.

$70 / hour
USD. Estimated one-time total: $4,200–$5,600 (60–80 hours at $70/hour). Recurring annual amount: $5,988. Estimated first-year website services: $10,188–$11,588, excluding existing CRM charges, third-party costs and taxes. The one-time estimate assumes reusable source content, up to 90 public page/post URLs across both languages, and up to eight reusable layout families. Final inventory and hosting capacity are confirmed before a fixed scope is signed.
One-time project
Same design. Same content. A coordinated technical transition.
The estimate covers implementation and migration into Edudigital Campus, preserving the existing English and Spanish website experience. It is based on a public-site review; access to the source files, database and licenses will establish the final fixed scope.

Payment schedule: Implementation and migration remain separate one-time scopes. Each requires a 50% deposit and 50% at its completion milestone; migration completion is go-live. Across the estimated project, the initial 50% represents $2,100–$2,800. The deposit is calculated from the final agreed scope, not from an open-ended hourly authorization.
If NPTI retains its current WordPress platform
A like-for-like hosting transfer is estimated at $1,400–$2,100 one time: implementation $420–$560 (6–8 hours), plus migration $980–$1,540 (14–22 hours), at the same $70/hour rate. This is an alternative technical scope within Option 1, not an additional charge. It preserves the existing theme and website platform and centralizes service management; it does not move the website into Edudigital Campus.
This alternative assumes complete, restorable backups, transferable theme/plugin licenses, compatible hosting and access to both language sites. Existing faults, missing source assets, paid replacement licenses, custom feature reconstruction and content changes require a separate agreed scope.
Estimate assumptions: existing approved copy and design remain unchanged; no new CRM workflows or integrations; current third-party accounts remain available. Up to 90 public page/post URLs and eight layout families are planning allowances, not a verified CMS inventory. Backend review confirms hidden pages, archives, installation count, media volume and dependencies. Any additional work is itemized for approval before it begins.
03 / Delivery
A controlled transition.
A documented sequence for Option 1: confirm the assets, prepare the environment, validate the migration and coordinate launch. Calendar dates follow access readiness and NPTI’s approval.
PHASE 01
Discover & confirm
Inventory both language sites, pages, plugins, forms, licenses and owners. Establish traffic and inquiry baselines. Confirm the fixed migration scope.
PHASE 02
Prepare & validate
Use a test environment. Review key pages, accessibility, redirects and inquiry routing. Document backup and rollback steps.
PHASE 03
Approve & launch
NPTI signs off. Apply only approved website DNS changes, preserve email records, and test pages, forms and email after cutover.
PHASE 04
Monitor & hand over
30-day launch-monitoring window for migration defects, broken links and search visibility. Deliver the ownership register and operational handoff.
Preserve the website. Centralize its management. The migration retains NPTI’s existing visual design, copy, imagery and language content. Moving to Edudigital Campus includes technical recreation of existing layouts and interactions, subject to a representative-page validation. Redesign, copy improvement, translation and new features are excluded. If platform compatibility requires retaining WordPress, we can coordinate that transition under the same service model with a revised scope.
04 / Scope
Clear boundaries. Predictable expectations.
Support hours and service targets
Monday–Friday, 8:30 a.m.–6:00 p.m. America/New_York, excluding agreed holidays. Automated monitoring runs outside those hours; staffed 24/7 response is not included.
Severity
First response target
Restoration / completion target
Critical: site unavailable or inquiry flow blocked
Within 4 business hours
Workaround or restoration within 1 business day where within our control
Major: a key function is degraded
Within 1 business day
Workaround or agreed correction plan within 3 business days
Routine: approved minor content changes
Within 2 business days
Normally scheduled within 5 business days, within allowance
Targets begin during service hours and depend on access, approvals and third-party availability. Response and restoration targets depend on the incident and are not guaranteed resolution times. The service agreement documents the applicable provider availability terms. Additional remediation is estimated before billable work.
Ownership, access and an orderly exit
NPTI retains ownership of its domain, institutional content, data and institution-owned digital accounts. The handover records named administrators, recovery contacts, license ownership and export locations. Credentials belong in a secure vault, not the proposal or asset inventory.
The final agreement will define transfer of paid deliverables, third-party license restrictions, export formats, transition assistance, notice periods and any additional transition fees. Institutional account access should remain with NPTI throughout the relationship.
Included continuity checks
English and Spanish program pages, approved catalogs and consumer-information links.
Existing inquiry form, CRM delivery and source attribution tested with approved test submissions.
Complete old-to-new URL map, redirects, metadata and sitemap review.
Traffic and search baselines, with post-launch checks; rankings are not guaranteed.
Backup restore test, launch approval and rollback criteria.
DNS zone backup and preservation of institutional email routing and authentication records.
Services outside the monthly scope
Copywriting, translation, graphic design, redesigns, new page templates, SEO campaigns, paid advertising, new integrations, custom features, major remediation, formal accessibility certification and legal or accreditation advice. Any new work requires an approved scope. NPTI supplies and approves institutional content.
The next decision
Choose the delivery model. Then confirm the scope.
Option 1 offers consolidated responsibility. Option 2 keeps agency website operations on institution-provisioned hosting. Option 3 places both with the agency.
NPTI identifies its preferred option and a designated approver for content, access and launch.
The delivery owner completes discovery, including the agency handoff, current contracts and both language sites.
Review the final scope and agreement, including pricing where applicable, service responsibilities and the migration schedule.
