Clean Energy Council (CEC) engaged RXL Professional Services to provide expert guidance on a struggling website redevelopment. The existing agency-led project, built on Kentico CMS, was failing to meet expectations in terms of quality, functionality and delivery timelines.
Over a focused 8–12 week engagement, RXL conducted a comprehensive technical audit and stakeholder review. The outcome empowered CEC to end the vendor engagement, protect budget, and realign its digital strategy.
About the Clean Energy Council (CEC)
The Clean Energy Council is the peak body for the clean energy industry in Australia. As a key authority in renewable energy, the organisation leads advocacy, policy, and industry support. A strong digital presence made the Clean Energy Council website redevelopment a strategic priority to improve communications, awareness, and engagement in a fast-changing sector.
A Critical Need for Digital Clarity
CEC had engaged a third-party agency to redevelop its website on the Kentico CMS platform, but there were concerns about delivery quality and strategic fit:
- Inconsistent delivery standards: Technical implementation did not align with best practices or industry expectations.
- Lack of strategic insight: The vendor failed to provide future-focused guidance, leaving the CEC team without confidence in the roadmap.
- Budget and timeline concerns: Project overruns and quality issues presented risks to budget control and stakeholder trust.
Due to these challenges, CEC sought an independent and expert perspective to assess the situation and provide actionable recommendations.
RXL’s Targeted, Strategic Assessment
RXL was engaged on a fractional consulting basis to deliver a structured, objective review of the Kentico-based website redevelopment. The engagement was designed to be efficient, focused and collaborative.

- Recommendations and vendor review: RXL provided clear, actionable recommendations and risk assessments, enabling CEC to end the vendor engagement and safeguard its investment.
