Alliance Metal Solutions

From WordPress Frustration to Lightning-Fast PWA

The Challenge

Alliance Metal Solutions had a website they loved—clean design, clear presentation of their in‑house capabilities and long‑term commitment to customers. But every time Shane or Sean needed to update service pages, project photos or team bios, they found WordPress clunky and time‑consuming. Frustrated by plugin conflicts, slow load times and complex editing workflows, they asked JABA to deliver a solution that kept the site’s familiar look and feel but made content updates effortless and fast.

Our Approach

Preserve the Brand Identity
We carefully studied their existing design—colours, fonts, imagery—and rebuilt the front end as a Progressive Web App (PWA), ensuring the updated site felt instantly familiar to returning visitors.

Implement JABA CMSv7
Behind the scenes, we retired the old WordPress backend and installed our bespoke CMSv7. The intuitive editor lets non‑technical users add pages, upload photos, update equipment specs and post news in seconds.

Optimise for Speed & Navigation
By leveraging PWA technology, we drastically reduced page‑load times—often under one second on desktop and mobile. We also restructured the menu and product filters, making it easier for customers to find AMS’s range of machining, fabrication and finishing services.

Seamless Transition & Training
To ensure a smooth handover, we migrated all existing content into CMSv7 and conducted a hands‑on training session with Shane and Sean. They now enjoy full control of their site, without the headaches of plugin updates or security patches.

The Results

• Ultra‑Fast Performance: Load times improved by over 70%, earning both better Google rankings and happier visitors.
• Effortless Editing: What once took 20–30 minutes in WordPress now takes under 2 minutes in CMSv7—no coding required.
• Enhanced User Experience: Streamlined navigation and clear service categories help customers quickly identify the exact AMS solution they need.
• Future‑Proof Platform: As a PWA, the site works offline, prompts users to “add to home screen” on mobile devices, and remains ready for future feature expansions—such as live job tracking or AI‑powered quoting tools.

“JABA took a site we loved but struggled to maintain and transformed it into a high‑performance, user‑friendly PWA. Our team now updates content in seconds, and our customers notice the difference in speed and usability every day.”
— Shane & Sean, Alliance Metal Solutions
