Clevis designs and builds websites for Front Range engineering firms that want to stand out.
Clevis
What we bring
Engineering firms do careful, complicated work. We make websites that explain it clearly and look as considered as the work itself.
We get to know your firm
Before we design anything, we talk with your principals and learn your projects, your clients and the people you want to hire.
Design that sets you apart
An identity and website built around your own projects, with line drawings no other firm will have.
A partner after launch
We stay on to keep the site current as projects finish, people join and the firm grows.
Work
Websites and brands our team has built. Each case study says why the project matters to an engineering firm.
The San Francisco Standard
A brand refresh and website redesign for a San Francisco newsroom. Traffic rose 25%, and the homepage won first place at the California Journalism Awards.
Pasture Biosciences
A brand identity and website for a science startup developing a methane-reducing vaccine for cattle. Technical work, explained plainly.
What we do
Three services and a free way in. Most firms start with a website build and keep it current with a care plan.
Site teardown
Send us your URL and within a week you get three specific fixes, whether or not we work together.
FreeWithin a week
Website build
Strategy, design, copy and build, with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Your team gets a site it can update without calling anyone.
6–8 weeks · fixed price
Care plan
Starts the day the site launches. Upkeep covers hosting, security and edits; Growth adds new project pages, team news and ongoing search work.
Monthly · Upkeep or Growth
Brand & drawings
A refreshed identity, and line drawings of your own projects: the bridge, the plant, the soil under the slab.
Identity and project drawings
Who we work with
Front Range engineering firms of 20 to 250 people, in every discipline that has to win work on qualifications.
Civil
Land development and public works, shown project by project instead of as a list of services.
Geotechnical
Work that ends up underground, where no one can photograph it. Drawings can.
Structural
Your part of buildings people know, made plain on every project page.
Transportation
Award-winning roads and transit work, on the homepage where reviewers look.
Water & environmental
Long programs explained for the agencies and communities that fund them.
MEP
The systems inside the building, made as visible as the building.
Survey
Crews, equipment and coverage, and a careers page that hires field staff.
Other disciplines
The same approach works for any firm hired on qualifications.
