Brief

The Australian Institute of Petroleum (AIP) is the national voice for Australia's downstream fuel industry. Government, media, industry and plenty of everyday motorists rely on its website for fuel price data, industry facts and policy information. It's high-trust stuff.

The trouble was, the site hadn't kept up. It sat on an ageing platform that made small updates hard work, and it didn't really look like it belonged to an organisation with AIP's standing. So the brief was simple: redevelop the site, move it to WordPress, and give AIP something modern that the team could run themselves.

Strategy

A quick refresh wasn't going to cut it. The foundations needed rebuilding so the site could carry AIP's authority and fit the way the team actually works.

The strategy was built around:

Moving to WordPress for a stable, secure, easy-to-manage platform
Giving the team full control to publish content without waiting on a developer
Restructuring content so each audience finds what they need, fast
A modern, responsive design that suits an industry authority

Website Re-development

We rebuilt the AIP website from the ground up, swapping a dated, maze-like site for something clean, modern and built around information. The new design finally looks like AIP: credible and professional. It's fully responsive too, so a journalist checking fuel prices on their phone gets the same experience as a policy adviser at their desk.

WordPress Migration

This was the heart of the project. On the old platform, even simple updates usually needed technical help, which isn't practical when you're publishing time-sensitive information every week. We moved AIP's content library across carefully, tidying and reorganising as we went. Now the team can publish updates, upload reports and manage pages on their own. And WordPress gives them a secure, scalable foundation that's easy to maintain and extend down the track.
