/ The client

The federation of the independent automotive market.

FIGIEFA (figiefa.org) is the International Federation of Automotive Aftermarket Distributors. Based in Brussels, it represents independent automotive parts distributors before the European institutions and defends the principle of a free aftermarket.

For a lobbying federation, the website is a strategic showcase: it expresses positions, communicates regulatory news and reinforces the federation's credibility with European decision-makers and its members.

/ The challenge

Modernising the digital presence of an influential federation.

The existing site no longer reflected FIGIEFA's ambition and real influence. The stakes were twofold: modernise the image to strengthen institutional credibility, and simplify editorial management so the team could publish in full autonomy.

The federation regularly takes part in complex legislative debates — right to repair, access to vehicle data, the aftermarket. Its site had to match those stakes: clear, structured, professional.

/ The method

Our approach.

A project run end to end: strategy, design, development and editorial configuration — for a federation that doesn't need to depend on a provider to publish.

  • A strong institutional design. A visual identity consistent with FIGIEFA's lobbying positioning — understated, professional, credible.
  • A clear editorial structure. News, positions, events, member resources — an information architecture designed for stakeholders.
  • Full autonomy via Javlo. Our open-source CMS configured for the FIGIEFA team — no need for a provider to publish, edit or evolve content.

/ What this project says about us

A clear promise for European federations.

The FIGIEFA case illustrates what Andromede brings to lobbying federations: the ability to deliver an institutional website that reflects the organisation's real influence — with no technical dependency, and full autonomy for the team.

A federation defending complex issues deserves a digital presence to match. Not a generic template, but an editorial tool built to communicate with precision to European decision-makers.
