BCA leads Singapore’s built environment across regulatory affairs and industry transformation. While BCA wears many hats, it has developed many sub-brands to reflect them all. The branding opportunity was to align the agency behind a refreshed Vision, Mission & Values and review the brand architecture to ensure everyone is clear on BCA’s role — reinforcing its position as the Champions Singapore Built Environment.
Through thorough engagement with key stakeholders, Tangible helped refresh both the Vision, Mission & Values and the brand architecture. Tangible also developed the strategy and decision trees to align all BCA’s sub-brands. You will see the word “Champion” appear regularly, as this is BCA’s superpower; they truly are the Champions of the Built Environment.
The brand personality of ‘thoughtful, measured and considered’ resonated with most audiences and was adopted for BCA. This became the tone of voice for all our Visual & Verbal Core Elements and communication templates. The BCA logotype was rebalanced with the symbol, and the symbol was redrawn with the progressive tower, now drawn in perspective. A messaging house and verbal identity complemented the communication templates and website design.
The three Values of ‘We Champion Excellence’, ‘We Champion Collaboration’, and ‘We Champion Sustainable Innovation’ became the values behind the employer value proposition. Tangible then developed a staff brand book and internal activation plan to ensure the new Vision, Mission and Values were inculcated throughout BCA.
Tangible developed and tested hypotheses for the presentation of their Lines-of-Business and the BCA brands (e.g., BCA Academy), BCA sub-brands (e.g., BCA awards) and those standalone brands that BCA drove (e.g., Build SG). The result was a clear brand architecture and decision trees that allow BCA to align their brands and develop new brands with clarity and objectivity.
Tangible developed the signage and wayfinding system for BCA to ensure consistent engagement with stakeholders across their different campuses.
