ECOLOGICAL CONSULTANCY WEBSITE BRIEF Turing Websites | turingwebsites.com/web-design-for/ecologists Updated: 25 October 2026 Use this editable brief to plan your consultancy website and compare supplier quotes. Your specialists approve the technical service descriptions, credentials and any survey information. Keep client reports, site plans and other project records in your agreed document-sharing systems. 1. YOUR PROJECT TEAMS AND COVERAGE Practice name and current website: Which clients should enquire: developers, architects, householders, landowners or other consultancies? Which UK countries, regions and locations do you serve? Which project types and service specialisms should the first pages explain? What should visitors do next: ask about a site, discuss subcontracting or contact a named team? 2. SERVICES AND PROFESSIONAL EVIDENCE List your priority service names using wording approved by your specialists: For each, identify the visitor's project context and the information they need before an enquiry. Which qualifications, professional memberships and other credentials are approved for publication? Who checks membership wording, logo permissions and any expiry dates? Who approves country-specific technical or regulatory information? If survey timing appears, who supplies and reviews it for the relevant country and service? 3. THE INITIAL PROJECT BRIEF Choose the information your team needs to start a conversation: - Site location or postcode. - Proposed works and project stage. - The service requested, or a request to discuss the suitable next step. - Existing plans, reports or previous advice available. - Project timing and the reason for it. Which information should be required initially, and which can follow later? Which inbox or existing tool receives the enquiry? How should your team share plans and reports after the first message? If you need website uploads, identify the existing approved destination, access controls and retention requirements for separate scoping. 4. AUTHORISED PROJECT EXAMPLES AND PAGES Choose project examples you have permission to publish: For each, record the project context, your team's role, approved description, image permission and publication reviewer. Which details should remain private? List your first three pages in priority order: Which specialisms fit a service overview, and which need their own page? Which important existing URLs and resources need to be retained or redirected? For scope comparison: Turing's Launchpad starts at £2,000 for three agreed pages. An example starting structure is your practice homepage, service overview and enquiry page. Larger service libraries, document uploads and client portals receive their own scope. Ask suppliers to itemise the build price, editing access, hosting and recurring support charges. 5. CONTENT OWNERSHIP AND HANDOVER Budget range and target launch: Who supplies the content, photographs and permissions? Who approves technical wording and future updates? Which content-editing method, training and documentation should the scope include? Who owns the domain, website code, hosting and measurement accounts? Who maintains service descriptions and professional credentials after launch? 6. YOUR LAUNCH CHECK [ ] Services, coverage and professional credentials match approved wording. [ ] A visitor can find the relevant project information on a phone. [ ] Project examples have recorded publication permission. [ ] The initial enquiry asks for the agreed minimum information.
