Project overview: a UI/UX redesign implemented on WordPress

SCS Engineers is an employee-owned environmental consulting and construction firm. We redesigned their website and implemented it on WordPress.

About SCS Engineers

SCS Engineers is an employee-owned environmental consulting and construction firm. It studies an environmental challenge, designs the solution, then remediates, builds, operates, and monitors the systems that follow, across solid and hazardous waste, landfill gas, site remediation, renewable energy, and air, water, and soil compliance.

UI/UX redesign, implemented on WordPress

We redesigned the SCS Engineers website and implemented it on WordPress. The design work set the structure and the visual hierarchy. The implementation put that design on WordPress, the content management system SCS uses to publish the site.

The public site was designed and built as one project, from the layout a visitor sees to the CMS editors use to keep services, news, and offices current.

What the site has to explain

  • What the firm is. An employee-owned consulting and construction firm for environmental solutions.
  • The range of the practice. Waste, landfill gas, remediation, renewable energy, and air, water, and soil compliance each need a door of their own.
  • News and expertise that stay current. SCS publishes project stories, events, and technical articles. Editors have to add those without a developer.
  • Every screen. A utility director reading on a phone should get the same clear offer as someone at a desk.

Why WordPress

WordPress fits a content-heavy professional firm. Services, sectors, news, and publications are pages and posts. Editors can publish a project story or update a service page inside a CMS their communications team can learn. The design sits in the theme, so a new article inherits the same type, spacing, and layout as the rest of the site.

Implementation means the redesign is the site people visit. Pages, templates, and the editing experience are built in WordPress so the firm can keep publishing after we hand it over.

Website redesign and WordPress

We do the design as UI/UX design and the build as web development. To add designers to your own team, you can hire UI/UX designers through Maxiom.dev.

The Challenge

SCS studies an environmental problem and then designs, builds and operates the solution: solid and hazardous waste, landfill gas, site remediation, renewable energy, and compliance for air, water and soil. The website has to make that range understandable to cities, utilities and industrial clients.
