The Travis Perkins Group who own the likes of Wickes, Keyline, Benchmarx amongst others, along with the not to be forgotten Travis Perkins merchant brand, have recently given us the nod to build their group brand online. Having fought off some pretty tough competition (apparently) we are just getting stuck into the first phase of this awesome project. Unusually perhaps for most, we’re starting from the inside out – by building their employer brand and e-recruitment platform. We’ll keep you posted as things start taking shape.

As BAA continues its £4 billion transformation of Heathrow airport, we produced a ‘vision book’ to help ensure everyone working on the project is on the same journey.
The book inspires architects and designers with an insight into the future of Heathrow, Carefully crafted over a year, it is the first significant piece of communication to be released that not only showcases the airport’s new brand and strategies but, more importantly, aims to inspire and engage people around the ‘new Heathrow’ and all ambitions of this incredible transformation.
The branding process continues into 2010 as we work with Heathrow’s senior management and brand team to develop a communication framework to ensure cohesive communication across every conceivable touchpoint – both internally and externally.

Throughout our time at Bute Mills we’ve been fortunate to have worked closely with General Motors, and still do, so we’re chuffed that they have asked us to produce a mailer promoting their raft of new technology and innovations to 26,000 small businesses.
Having won our awards over the years for fleet (we don’t like to gloat, really) this mailer had to impress them. So far so good.
Fresh thinking? Or just what the client expected? One of the same we think.

If you’ve spotted a stream of pizza delivery drivers cruising down Guildford Street, and seen the lights on late at night over at BMB Towers you’ll know that we’ve had a crack team of creatives working hard on an exciting new project.
Well, we can now reveal that we were in fact revamping the packaging of an old classic for leading global toys and games giant, Hasbro.
As the secret project won’t ultimately come to fruition for another two years we can’t give much away but needless to say such a job is far from a 9 to 5 when the end result will be played by millions worldwide.
Well done to the BMB Hasbro team, and thank you to the guys and girls over at Hasbro UK, not only for their dedication and partnership but also for their great feedback.
Have a look at their website. It’s remarkable just how many of their toys you’ll recognise, and want to play again!

Fantastic news from the CIPR Pride Awards on Friday after we scooped not one, but two Gold Awards:
Internal Communications – Inside DLR
Best Publication – A Brief History of the Docklands – A Station by Station Guide
It was very satisfying to see all of our hard work paying off. Both projects received the recognition they deserve with some great comments from the judges and we also had the chance to celebrate with our friends from DLR.

Well, after Team BMB returned from Wednesday night’s awards empty handed, the suits and dresses have been to the dry cleaners, the shoe polish has been out and we’re ready for this evening’s trip to Surrey for the CIPR Pride Awards.
Yet again it’s our work with DLR that’s in the spotlight – an internal communications programme and the much-lauded History of The Docklands brochure.
All fingers are crossed that tonight will see us pick up at least one trophy, hopefully two. Usual rules apply – keep an eye out for the live twitter update and a full report will follow next week.

It’s awards evening again and Team BMB are heading to the ballroom of the Park Lane Hotel on Piccadilly to see if they can land the gong for Best Corporate Publication at the CorpComms Awards 2009.
We’ve been nominated for the History of The Docklands piece we produced for DLR and it is a project which has already proved to be a winner after scooping a prize this year’s Community Rail Awards in September.
Apparently the ballroom is where Queen Elizabeth herself learned to dance so we’ll be praying some of those skills will rub off on our team as they take to the floor for what we hope will be a celebratory jig later tonight.
We’ll be posting a live Twitter update to this site throughout the evening so keep an eye out for the results. There’ll also be a full write up following the event.

It’s business as usual. In good old British war-time spirit, the men have dug up the road and replaced the cables, whilst our very own IT Crack-Team have done whatever they do with servers, routers and connections to get us up and running again. So anyone wishing to get in touch can do through the usual channels.
As you were…

After numerous DM campaigns for GM UK Fleet – all well received and successful in increasing enquires – it was no surprise that we were asked to raise awareness of the All-new Astra and provide an engaging DM piece for Fleet Managers. Historically Astra has been an important model in fleet, accounting for 75% of overall Astra sales in 2008.
