AEIC’s challenge
The Australian Energy Infrastructure Commissioner(Opens in a new tab/window)’s public-facing website was built on GovCMS Drupal 7, which was coming to end-of-life. AEIC needed to build a new site on GovCMS Drupal 9.
AEIC’s transformation
Salsa built AEIC’s new website using CivicTheme to save on time and costs. The relatively simple site was built within 2 months, using mostly out-of-the-box features. The implementation of the search functionality was the only customisation. CivicTheme is an open source, inclusive and component-based design system and Drupal 9 theme.
The outcomes
- An extremely cost-effective website, using less than 50% of the proposed budget
- A fast website build
- A visually appealing website providing an updated user experience

“Salsa delivered the upgraded aeic.gov.au website ahead of schedule, using the CivicTheme design system to great effect for the website design. They engaged with us through discovery, design and content migration activities. Salsa is experienced working with GovCMS websites and I can definitely recommend CivicTheme and Salsa’s approach for websites that need to launch quickly.”
