The Project

Client Background

The Institute of Chartered Accountants in Ireland is the largest and longest established accountancy body in Ireland. It has over 14000 members, and it is the leading voice of the accountancy profession in Ireland.

Project Description

Biznet understood that one of the main objectives of developing the site was to provide an interactive tool to communicate with members and to receive their feedback in a structured manner. The ICAI wanted to reduce the amount of administrative work within the Institute by producing a site, which made it easy for the end user to find the information and either download or purchase online. They were looking for a user-friendly content management system, which would make uploading content from a non-technical point of view easy for different content managers within the organisation.

Biznet Solution

Biznet Solutions embarked on designing a website for ICAI; with a look and feel that reflected the corporate identity of ICAI and functionality that effectively met the objectives and served the purpose of the organisation.

The development of the website also meets the electronic information requirements of Institute of Chartered Accountants Ireland and its identified target audiences, those being, but not exclusively, trading partners, businesses, financial institutions, etc in the North and South of Ireland.

The site is now a successful strategic marketing tool for the ICAI's business activities, and promotes the extensive range of services the ICAI provides.

Benefits to ICAI

"On completion of the project, I would have no hesitation in recommending Biznet as a top class team, where customer service is given a high priority. We were allocated a dedicated designer, developer and account manager at all times and this strong expertise really made a difference. We have a first class website which has gone live within budget and exceeds our expectations".
