CIBSE launches new website inspired by iconic building

Posted: 18 March 2014

CIBSE has unveiled its new website, featuring a modern new design, improved user navigation and optimisation for mobile and smart devices.

The look and feel of the site was inspired by the modular, precise design of 5 Broadgate, designed by Make Architects. CIBSE’s vision for the new site is that it will be the first choice for building services engineering, providing unrivalled information and support to members, those working in the built environment, clients and the public.

New features

New and improved functionality, developed through extensive consultation with members and other stakeholders, includes:

• modern and mobile optimised design and user navigation

• improved search functionality

• simplified one-time login to the Knowledge Portal, MYCIBSE area and Training and Events (which were previously separate websites)

• ability to rate and comment on articles or products and to share them via social media.

The ‘groundscraper’ has been conceived as a cast utilitarian block

Partners

The website was designed and built by Precedent.
Overall IT strategy and project management was supplied by Hart Square. 

Future developments

The new website now sets the foundation for CIBSE to be able to deliver future digital benefits, which will be supported by the implementation of a new CRM system delivering:

• greater personalisation of member content

• integration of other CIBSE website functions, including CPD and Certification websites

• providing further tools and platforms for communication between members.

CIBSE would welcome feedback on the new site, via www.cibse.org/contact
