What should an engineering firm show on its reference pages?

Give each project the year, the client, the size, the contract value and your role. Add one site photo. Tender teams copy those facts, so keep the same order on every page.

Should an engineering firm take small jobs from homeowners?

Say clearly on the site if you take them. A short page for homeowners lists the jobs you take, such as a structural wall, and what you need before you can give a price.

How does an engineering consultant show up on Google Maps?

Choose Engineering consultant as the main category, and add one more category for each discipline, such as Structural engineer. Add each discipline to the services list too.

What a website needs for engineering consultants.

An engineering firm sells to contractors, developers and public clients. The work comes through fee offers, tenders and repeat customers. Each tender asks for references and CVs, and someone has to pull them together at short notice.

Dagny writes the client email and keeps the reference pages current. It follows up fee offers and preps meetings with contractors. The calculations and the drawings stay with your engineers.

01
A page for each engineering discipline
Make pages for structural, fire, acoustics, geotechnical and building services engineering. A developer searches for the discipline they need on the next project.
02
References with the facts tenders ask for
List each project with year, client, size, contract value and your role. Tender teams copy these facts straight into their documents.
03
Key engineers and their CVs
Show each senior engineer with their discipline, education and main projects. Tenders often ask for named key people.
04
Approval classes and quality certificates
Show the approval classes you hold, your quality system and your health and safety certificates. Public clients check these before they invite you to bid.
05
Contractors, developers or homeowners
Say if you work for contractors, developers, public owners or private homeowners. A clear answer stops the wrong enquiries early.

What should an engineering firm website include?

What is central approval for engineering firms?

Sentral godkjenning
DiBK's central approval is voluntary, with approval areas by function, field and tiltaksklasse. List the design areas and classes your firm holds for each discipline.
RIF member firm
In RIF, the trade body for consulting engineers, the firm is the member and not the person. Say on your site that your firm is a RIF member.
RIF-godkjent rådgiver
Staff in a RIF firm can apply for the title RIF-godkjent rådgiver in their own field. It needs a master's level and six years of practice, or a bachelor's degree and eight.
StartBANK
StartBANK is a shared supplier register that makes supplier checks simpler in Norwegian building and construction. Say if your firm has a StartBANK profile.

From the fee offer to the handover

1
Enquiry and fee offer
The client describes the project, and you offer a scope, a fee and a time plan.
2
Start-up meeting
You agree on the scope, the contacts and the dates with the contractor or the owner.
3
Design and calculations
Your engineers design the solution and check it against the rules.
4
Handover
You deliver the drawings and documents, and you answer questions from the site.
